Re: [Visualpython-users] Closing visual from code

[Bruce S. <Bru...@nc...>]

What platform are you running on?

I find that on Windows this does work properly running from a command 
line. The C++ code does intend to exit the program if we reach the end 
of the program and there are no windows visible. However, for some 
reason exit doesn't happen on Ubuntu Linux. I didn't yet try on the Mac.

It also does not exit on Windows when running from VIDLE or IDLE, maybe 
because in the shell window you can still execute statements, such as 
scene.visible = True, so you're not really at the end of the program. 
Clearly we need some statement that unequivocally kills the program.
