Hello,
I'd make a call between the processes - you can have the
deamon listen on a port and the GUI app can then send a shutdown message
onto that port (there are obviously much fancier ways of doing this - I
just picked the most bread and butter one). This will allow you to shut
down your deamon in an organised fashion - I don't know if the terminate
process functions calls the TerminateProces s function in the win32api
but it is not a recommended way of closing your process.
If you wish more info on closing your app in win32 goto -
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...teprocess.asp).
Cheers,
Neil
