RE: newbie - try catch - array of struct - gc - loop terminated

[Diego - Red Baires <diego_redbaires@...>]

Hi guys,
thank you all, for taking time to help me.

i am not embedding Lua into my own C++ development.
i am using Lua because it is the scripting used on an updater-software called
IndigoRose's TrueUpdate.
(trueupdate is the container c++ software that integrates Lua)

now i want to script a loop.
but what happend if while looping, the user press "shut down computer" ?

i need to detect the broadcasted FINISH win_message, so i can exit the loop
and not "hanging" the updater.

i am asking for this propietary flag to indigorose's guys, but i thought
that may be Lua has something to break the script.

thanks again,
diego
