Kill App when Script killed

[Mica]

Hello,

i'd like to know if it is possible as soon as the script gets killed (crtl+alt+del method) manualy. It can close a process aswell.

Like a little mockup idea:

1) Kill Script process

2) Kill Running Process of a program the script ran.

(like some sort of last event handler or some kind?)

Thanks in advance

From the help file:

Opt("OnExitFunc", "endscript")
MsgBox(0,"","first statement")

Func endscript()
    MsgBox(0,"","after last statement " & @EXITMETHOD)
;killprocess()
EndFunc

Define what process you want killed in endscript function

Thanks alot

A bit premature

If the script is ended with Ctrl Alt Del as you said then the exe is stopped from running, so how can it execute the onexit function?

Manjish didn't try his own suggestion or he would have found it doesn't work.

If you call exe B from exe A and want B to end when A ends then you could make B check that A is alive and if not then exit. ProcessExists will do the job.

@ Martin,

True.

Are you talking about a different process, or an autoit one you have created?

One way to do it is run a seperate small script... (or be clever)

If WinExists ("Process killer on exit example") Then Exit 0 * _MainProcess ()

AutoitWinSetTitle ("Process killer on exit example")

$iPid = Run ("""" & @AutoitExe & """ """ & @ScriptFullPath & """")

While ProcessExists ($iPid)
   Sleep (10)
WEnd
ProcessClose ("The process!!")
Exit

Func _MainProcess ()
   While 1
      Tooltip ("Running")
   WEnd
EndFunc ; ==> _MainProcess

This will create 2 seperate processes though, so you must make sure that you colse the right one.
