Automatic Updater Time Delay

Good Morning,

The automatic updater is working great for me the only slight 'cosmetic' problem I have with it is that when the update is executed my application shutdown is too slow to prevent the Running Processes dialog to open up. It is only shown for a second before automatically closing (when my application has finally shutdown) but it's annoying and confuses the users. So the current sequence of event is:

- My app starts and checks for the update- An update is found and downloaded- The user clicks to start the update- My application is starting to shutdown- The wyBuild installer window appears- The c appears for a second (until my app has completely shutdown)- The update proceeds

Is it possible to add a time delay between the shutdown command of my app and the update starting to prevent the popup of the 'Close running processes' window?

Thanks,

Mike

Apologies, the line:

- The c appears for a second (until my app has completely shutdown)

should actually read:

- The 'Close running processes' window appears for a second (until my app has completely shutdown)

I have also tried the -hidefiu=5 command line switch but that didn't make a difference?

Hey Mike,

We didn't implement that (-hidefiu=5) yet. The best thing you can do in the meantime is make sure your app exits immediately. Profile your app and find out what's slowing down your app's shutdown.
