hi all,

i am having trouble with stop(). it nevers gets called.

i can see from this thread: http://forum.processing.org/topic/network-library-possible-to-stop-client-before-application-is-closed

that stop() is not guaranteed to be called, when quitting the program... hm... is there a foolproof way?

for instance, when running+quitting this code, nothing is printed

void setup() {
size(200,200);
}
void draw() {
background(int(random(255)));
}
void stop() {
println("stop");
}

There are a few methods you could try in this thread:

Also you could override the exit() method.

void exit() {
// do stuff
super.exit();
}

thanks!

the prepareExitHandler () routine in that thread works perfectly for me :)
