How to know the EA tab was closed?

[bachristus]

How to know the EA tab was closed? Is there any event I can use to know when user closed my custom tab in EA?

I need to release some resources when tab is closed and I dont know the moment to do this. Have not found any method in (RT)FM! :-)

Won't windoze give you a signal when a resource is closed? (Bare with me, I'm an Apple fanboy.)

Could be that one of the standard .Net control events is being triggered, but that is something you would have to test.
I don't think there's an EA specific event that you can use.

I already tried a few of those. None fired. But i will keep trying

Let us know if you find out.
I can imagine I would need that one day as well.

It looks like overriding Control.OnHandleDestroyed() is doing the job!

Cool, thanks!

Yes, it's the first I've deleted in a very long time.

No - there is no API notification from EA that a tab has been closed. This is a real problem for any add-in writer, as it does mean you have to start diving into some truly nasty bits of Windows. This is what we had to do with our eaDocX Add-in. It would be great if Sparx let us know when a tab goes away....
