Hi all,

I've been using Code::Blocks for quite a long time ... but I've never found
which settings to change in order to have a confirmation box at exit (maybe
there's no such setting...).
More than once I had like ten files opened with numerous bookmarks on them,
then make a change and want to save with Ctrl+S and then my finger slip on Q,
C::B is exiting without asking me "Do you really want to quit your ten files with
all-the-bookmarks-you-set-since-tree-days ?"
Argh this really upset me when it happens !  :)

Did I missed the setting or there is no such ?

Regards

I think there is no such thing. I don't remember seeing it.
If there is and you've disabled it, look in the annoying dialog settings (don't remember where they are at the moment).

But it would be a "3-liner" plugin, listening to respective event on shutdown (something like that exists) and vetoing it after showing a message box.

A plugin sound like an overkill...

Maybe, but (s)he could do it without any help quickly.

Hi,

Thank you for your answers. Probably this would take three minutes to implement
it (I'm a GUI software developer - male by the way  :)), but I never took the time
(in fact, I don't really have the time at work...) to build C::B from sources and start
looking what is really inside it. I'm using the nigthlies instead.
Maybe the little message box could be added in a future nightly, for exemple in the
'annoying' dialogs settings. But it's just a proposal...

Anyway, keep up the good work !

Best regards,
