Application.Exi t() did not exist the application.

[Shelby]

Hi,
I used System.Windows. Forms.Applicati on.DoEvents() in a loop to handle user
click close button .

Private Sub btnclose_Click( ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArg s) Handles btnclose.Click
Me.Close()
System.Windows. Forms.Applicati on.Exit
End Sub

However, the application continues to run when user click close, thought the
form did close.

Is there anything I miss out?

Thanks.

ah, good ol logic error.
Me.Close() did what it was supposed to. Closed the form and stopped execution
of the form along with it's resources.
The Application.Exi t command never got processed.
You could just remove the Me.Close().
If you want to make the form go away but continue to run, you might try
Me.Hide().
Then the Application.Exi t command should execute.
Although if your code was still running, this might not be the most graceful way
or appropriate place to exit.

Hi,
I have change to
Private Sub btnclose_Click( ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArg s) Handles btnclose.Click
System.Windows. Forms.Applicati on.Exit
End Sub

The application is still running and the form also close without the
me.close() statement.

Just put a simple End in the Sub

Private Sub btnclose_Click( ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArg s) Handles btnclose.Click
End
End Sub
This Should do it.

Hi Shelby,

Using that *end* statement is worse than setting the power of from your
computer.

When the me.close is on the main form, that is normaly enough, you do not
need that application.exi t

However when it is not on the mainclass, you have normally to close in the
class where you started the application.

I hope this helps?

I am interesting in knowing why you think this?

<msdn>
The End statement can be placed anywhere in a procedure to end code
execution, close files opened with an Open statement, and clear
variables. The End statement calls the Exit method of the Environment
class in the System namespace. System.Environm ent.Exit requires that you
have SecurityPermiss ionFlag.Unmanag edCode permissions. If you do not, a
SecurityExcepti on error occurs.

When executed, the End statement clears all variables at module and
class level and all static local variables in all modules.

Note The End statement stops code execution abruptly, without invoking
the Finalize method or any other Visual Basic code. Object references
held by other programs are invalidated.

The End statement provides a way to force your program to halt. Your
program closes as soon as there are no other programs holding references
to its objects and none of its code is executing.

If your application has any forms open, you should close them before
executing End. A console application can either use End or simply return
from the Main procedure.

Because it stops direct the program and does not free any resources anymore.
(It kills the process). When you power off than the resources are directly
freeed when you put the power on again.

Oh man, that thing still exists in .NET?

And what's even worse is that people STILL suggest it!!
