Terminating an SDI application.

Question

0.00/5 (No votes)

See more:

I am building an SDI application where I am testing to see if a device is connected to a USB port. If it is, I continue with my app. If it isn't, I want to terminate the app.

How do I terminate an app within the SDI environment?

I know I can return FALSE in my TheApp Instance, but I really want to do it from my Document or View class.

Thanks in advance.

When/where are you doing the testing?

If it is in your app's InitInstance() function, then returning FALSE should do it.

If you are not doing this from the app's InitInstance(), then I believe you want either:

AfxGetMainWnd()->PostMessage( WM_CLOSE, 0, 0 );

or

AfxGetMainWnd()->SendMessage( WM_CLOSE, 0, 0 );
