Is there a way to catch the event of terminating the application from the the
processes tab in task manager?
I have created windows app, and if a user termintates the app in the task
manager, I'd like to be notified. I tried few combinations of Close, Closing,
Application.Exi t method, ApplicationExit Event, etc, but nothing seems to be
working.
Thanks in advance

well you should be able to catch this in the form`s closing event
Private Sub Form1_FormClosi ng(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.Windows. Forms.FormClosi ngEventArgs) Handles Me.FormClosing
e.CloseReason.T askManagerClosi ng
End Sub

Michel,
thanks for your response. It would be too good if it was that easy, but this
works only if you End Task (kill application) in the Application tab, but not
if you End Process (kill process) in the Processes tab of Task Manager.
There have obviously been few significant upgrades between VS.NET 2002 and
VS.NET 2005. I am still maintaining my application in VS.NET 2002 where
e.CloseReason does not exist yet, but have installed VS.NET 2005 on other
machine so I could test your suggestion.
We will soon distribute .NET framework 2.0 company wide, so I will finaly be
able to migrate my windows application to VS.NET 2005 version in which I am
able to test for e.CloseReason.T askManagerClosi ng, which is exactly what I
needed, BUT ONLY if it worked in the Processes tab of Task Manager.
I am very confused that this new powerfull feature does not work in the
Processes tab. Any reason for that? Or can I make it work if the process is
killed (End Process). Or is there any other way to get notified when the
process is killed from the Task Manager - Processes tab?
Thanks,
Strah@langan

aha well you can`t catch the termination of your app when it is killed
through end process
as the app is forcefully killed ( equivalant as your app is ended with the
END statement ( verry bad to use this ) )
It is inmediatly unloaded without running or triggering termination and
cleanup events
you can only detect this with running a watcher app or something ( query the
processes lost once in a while )
hmm when i think of this
you could create a small executable wich only task is to check if your app
is alive , your app in it`s turn will query the process list to make sure
it`s guardian is running and if not start it with a process start command .
so it is possible but not through your own program you need a second process
by the way you called this feature new ,,, i used this a lot in my VB6 days
seems MS has still some catching up todo before VS.net has everything that
VB6 already had .

hmm it seems I need to create a service to guard my application... a bit
disappointing, but thanks for your input
