Terminate executions automatically before exiting

[Steffen.Schmidt]

Hi,

I want to disable the dialog that comes up when TestStand engine is going to be shut down while executions are still running ("You have incomplete executions...").

After this dialog you can choose "Terminate" for every execution. Is there any possibility to tell TestStand to terminate running executions generally without showing these annoying dialogs??

Thanks

Steffen

Hi,

Wouldn't it be better to actually terminate the executions.

Attached is an example, where the execution reference is return from  a new execution and used in the cleanup to terminate that execution.

This is just one way.

Hi

of course your suggestion is the appropriate way to do it.

But in my case this is not possible because I have two executions that are running until exiting the user interface (written in cvi) and with it shutting down the engine.

Hi,

Is it the Operator Interface that starts these two execution?

no, these two execs are started in the sequence file load callback of the main sequence

Hi,

So, couldn't you use the SequenceFile Unload Callback to stop those excutions.

The Operator Interface will perform this task as it goes through the shut down process of closing any loaded sequence files etc..

I've already tried this, but the problem is that the popup "You have incomplete executions [...]" comes up before the SequenceFileUnload callback of the main sequence is executed!
