"window closing" event? [message #649060] Mon, 17 January 2011 08:26 Go to next message

AWT's Window class provides both "windowClosing" and "windowClosed" events. The former is useful when you want to intercept the close and allow a user to cancel. Does the Shell class provide a similar capability? I only saw ShellListener#windowClosed(), but I was wondering if there might be another way to do it.
Thanks,
Greg

Seems as though I may be able to cancel the windowClosed() event by setting the doit property of the event to false. Is this correct?

I assume you mean the method shellClosed(). And I agree that this looks
like the right event to use for this.

Oops, yes - I meant shellClosed(). windowClosed() is the AWT method. Thanks.
