Hello fellow Adagoers,
I have a program that runs under Win32 and Linux. It's a daemon-like
tool, so it is launched on startup and runs until system goes down.
Now I'm interested in it detecting when the shutdown is happening to
save some data and do a graceful ending.
In Linux I think it suffices to trap SIGTERM and company. In Windows
I've seen that I could catch Ctrl-C that way but not a system shutdown.
I'm still in the process of investigating it so I haven't still reached
a dead end, but just in case someone is doing this already and can throw
me a quick pointer in the way to go...
Thanks!
