OK this is presumably a hard one, I've got an pyGTK application that has random crashes due to X Window errors that I can't catch/control.
So I created a wrapper that restarts the app as soon as it detects a crash, now comes the problem, when the user logs out or shuts down the system, the app exits with status 1. But on some X errors it does so too.
So I tried literally anything to catch the shutdown/logout, with no success, here's what I've tried:
import pygtk
import gtk
import sys
class Test(gtk.Window):
def delete_event(self, widget, event, data=None):
open("delete_event", "wb")
def destroy_event(self, widget, data=None):
open("destroy_event", "wb")
def destroy_event2(self, widget, event, data=None):
open("destroy_event2", "wb")
def __init__(self):
gtk.Window.__init__(self, gtk.WINDOW_TOPLEVEL)
self.show()
self.connect("delete_event", self.delete_event)
self.connect("destroy", self.destroy_event)
self.connect("destroy-event", self.destroy_event2)
def foo():
open("add_event", "wb")
def ex():
open("sys_event", "wb")
from signal import *
def clean(sig):
f = open("sig_event", "wb")
f.write(str(sig))
f.close()
exit(0)
for sig in (SIGABRT, SIGILL, SIGINT, SIGSEGV, SIGTERM):
signal(sig, lambda *args: clean(sig))
def at():
open("at_event", "wb")
import atexit
atexit.register(at)
f = Test()
sys.exitfunc = ex
gtk.quit_add(gtk.main_level(), foo)
gtk.main()
open("exit_event", "wb")
Not one of these succeeds, is there any low level way to detect the system shutdown? Google didn't find anything related to that.
I guess there must be a way, am I right? :/
