$GUI_EVENT_CLOSE

[kendama]

Is there any way to "clear" this message, run code before the form closes, intercept the red "X" and the form Close (Alt_F4) message or change the behavior of $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE?

Sorry for broad scope of my question, I'm just trying to understand what's possible with respect to intercepting / working with the form close event so I can continue to try different options to get this to work. 

I'm messing around with LibVLC and when I close my player window with a button calling a CloseVideoPlayer() function the player closes.  When I call the same function in the  Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE section, Autoit hands on the first libvlc dll call. libvlc_media_player_stop($hLibVLC_dll, $VLCMPlayer) ;stop the video.

Any thoughts on other things to try?

    While 1
         Local $GuiMsg = GUIGetMsg(1)
        Switch $GuiMsg[0]

            Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
                Switch $GuiMsg[1]
                    Case $VPlayerWindow
                        ExitLoop
                    Case Else
                        CloseVideoPlayer()
                EndSwitch

            Case $bnClose
                 CloseVideoPlayer()
           EndSwitch            

      Wend

Func CloseVideoPlayer()
    If $VLCMPlayer <> "" Then
        libvlc_media_player_stop($hLibVLC_dll, $VLCMPlayer) ;stop the video
        libvlc_media_player_release($hLibVLC_dll, $VLCMPlayer)
        libvlc_release($hLibVLC_dll, $hVLC)
    EndIf
EndFunc

 

Thanks for anything that might help me figure this out.

Have a look at the helpfile for

GUI Reference - OnEvent Mode

as that should give you this option.
