$GUI_EVENT_CLOSE - Nothing happens

[jnmayer]

Hi!

At first I have to say, that I started programming with AutoIt just yesterday and I'm making some fast progress! But right at the Moment I'm running into a bit of a problem.

I'm using Opt("GUIOnEventMode",1) to receive events instead of polling.

I have a main window in which some parameters can be set. And there is a big "Start" button to begin the calculations. When I click on the Close-Button on this main window, the program exits as desired.

By clicking on start, the main window is closed and a function ist called for the calculations. A new window with a prograss bar is displayed. I want to get the $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE from the window with the progress bar but nothing happens. Here's some code:

progress window:

CODE

$progwindow=GUICreate("Fortschritt",200,50)

$progbar=GUICtrlCreateProgress (10,10,180,30)

GUISetOnEvent($GUI_EVENT_CLOSE, "CLOSEClicked",$progwindow)

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW,$progwindow)

function CLOSEClicked

CODE

Func CLOSEClicked()

if $converting Then

$id=MsgBox(17,"Abbruch","Konvertierung nicht abgeschlossen."&@CR&"Abbrechen und unvollständige Datei löschen?")

if $id=2 then

Return

Else

FileClose($zielhandle)

FileClose($quellhandle)

FileDelete($ziel)

EndIf

EndIf

Exit

EndFunc

BTW I'm also using HotKeySet("^c","CLOSEClicked"). This works while the progress bar is displayed, the program ends in the desired way. When I click on the Close-Button, nothing happens. I am confused, can somebody help me?

Thanx in advance, Jürgen Mayer

I just checked it again. The Minimize-Button also minimizes the progress window. With Opt("GUIOnEventMode", 1) this should not happen. Instead I should just get an event. It seems that the events are not reaching my script. What have I done wrong?

Not sure how you reached that conclusion. Behaviour of minimize button is the same in both GUI modes.

You can change it with Opt("GUIEventOptions",1)

I thought that setting Opt("GUIOnEventMode",1) would be enough. I just added Opt("GUIEventOptions",1). The window now does not minimize any more. But still, I get no event when I click on the CloseButton.

Replace $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE with -3, that should do it.

Nope...

But I begin to see what's wrong here. I have a first window. This window has a "Start" button to begin with the calculations. I'm using

GUICtrlSetOnEvent($startbutton,"Main")

to give control to function "Main" when the button is pressed.

Inside this function I want to display the progress bar. And inside this function I want to receive the $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE. The Problem ist - as I know by now - I'm getting this event only after "Main" has ended. How can I receive this event inside the function "Main"?
