USB shutdown

[Mark Mutton]

Yet another morning post.  I have a picoscope which is nothing more than a USB ocillascope. I have a problem when the program has a hard shut down because the scope does not go through its shutdown procedure. I can then unplug the USB and pulg it back in, however, i dont think the end user is going to want to do this. Is there a way to take care of this in some initalization routine?

How is the program getting it's 'hard shutdown'? Your program should be designed so that the user cannot press the abort button on the toolbar or the file>exit menu item or close ('x') button. The abort button or the entire toolbar can be hidden and you can trap the others with the event structure so you can do an orderly shutdown.
