Log4OM

Is there a way to bypass the "Confirm Exit" dialog so that Log4OM will automatically exit gracefully on system shutdown?

Thanks,

Actually not... this screen was added to prevent accidental shutdown of log4om, communicator, cluster and everything else due to errors.

OK, thanks for the info.

Most applications allow an orderly automatic shutdown from the windows shutdown signal, completing backup, stopping other tasks, etc. in the process.

Some applications make the "Confirm exit" dialog optional and some only present it when shutdown is initiated by the user.

Please consider eliminating the "Confirm Exit" dialog for when a shutdown signal is received from Windows, or maybe making it optional for that case. Consider the situation where the PC is running on battery power. Windows will attempt to shutdown when power loss is imminent. It would be best if Log4OM performed an orderly shutdown and allowed Windows to do the same before power is lost.

now i understand... you mean the autoclose on Windows reboot/shutdown message...
this is more clear.
I think it's a good idea, yes, i'll add to the list

Thanks

Very useful option, however I would like also the possibility that Log4om closes all the software it opens. When for some reason I need to close Log4OM, and later turn on again, all the software that log4om had opened before, remains opened.
So If we can choose as we do with software to turn on, we must also have an option if we want software closes with log4om on shut down.
I think we have talked about it some time ago.

Software that starts "under" log4om is launched without dependancies to log4om process.
This is to avoid massive software shutdowns when users change profiles or make other activities that require Log4OM reboot.

Drawbacks are, in that case, more than benefits.

I see that the "closes automatically when windows is shut down" feature was added in 1.24.0. Thank you for including the feature. But it doesn't work for me. Communicator shuts down but Log4OM doesn't for some reason. Maybe I need to change something in the configuration?

Attached is a log file. Any ideas?

Thanks. Glenn - KD0Q

Hi Glenn.
I'm checking code using your log as reference. There is something that doesn't shutdown gracefully on your system.
I'm doing some tests. Thanks for sharing log
