Aborting compilation seems to be broken

(1/6) > >>

tiwag:
in one of my last projects i started a compilation of a wxWidgets precompiled header file
with the "-W" compiler warnings option,

which leads to millions of warnings of type
"inline function ... is declared as dllimport: attribute ignored"

when i press the Abort button, a message "Aborting process 0..." appears in the build dialogue,
but it isn't aborting  :shock:

you can test it with the attached project

OS WinXP,
wxMSW-2.6.3-p2, unicode, shared library,
gcc 3.4.4

I'mn't sure but it seems abort just stops executing new tasks and not killing the current ones, which would explain that behavior.

mandrav:
Exactly. This is known windows behaviour. Most kill-signals are ignored on that platform and there's not much we can do about it.
In linux though it aborts just fine.

tiwag:
ok that explains it

but how does ProcessExplorer kill them ?
with this tool i'm able to kill the process without problems,
maybe we can use the same method ... ?

AFAIK using a specific WinAPI method not encapsulated within wxWidgets. This is very Windows specific and certainly not cross-platform compatible... but does that matter?
