scalefactor and autoresize gives an error

[Wolfgang Ciriack]

Hi Roger,
can this technic also be used to terminate running threads ?
Or what is the preferred technic for that ?

Yes. You must remember though that you can only send events to threads in which there is a running event loop.

eXpress++ windows automatically handle events that are defined by the DCUSEREVENT command.

If you want to send a TERMINATE event to a thread you would do it like this:

#define TERMINATE_THREAD_EVENT xbeP_User + 101
// Window receiving the event
DCUSEREVENT TERMINATE_THREAD_EVENT ACTION {||DC_ReadGuiEvent(DCGUI_EXIT_OK,GetList)}

// Thread sending the event
PostAppEvent( TERMINATE_THREAD_EVENT, , , oReceivingWindow )
