[comp.soft-sys.andrew] application_Stop not called

tinglett+@rchland.ibm.com (Todd Inglett) (01/19/91)

I have noticed that application_Stop() is not called when an ATK
application is killed by the window manager (or when X dies).  It
appears the im_keyboardProcessor() never returns to application_Run(),
but somehow exits deep in the bowels of ATK.  It does exit with a bad
status, though.

This is a problem for me, because my application needs to do some
cleanup regardless of how the application is terminated.  I can live
with people signaling it will odd signals, but it is real easy for
someone to close an application with the mwm 'close' menu.  Anyone have
any workarounds?
