Question about plugin data persistence (1 Viewer)

[Baboonanza]

Hi,

I'm writing a disc ripping plugin and have a question about how the GUIWindow is treated after the user leaves/closes it. Obviously I want the user to be able to leave the window during the ripping but I need to store state information and the external Process object in order to control the ripping.

So, will the GUIWindow derived class ever be destroyed once the user has left (even if not immediately)? Is there some way to prevent this if a rip is in progress? Do I need to use a static class to store state information after the user leaves the window?

Thanks in advance,
James

Derived class will not be destroyed so all your background workers are safe

Keep in mind that OnPageDestroy when leaving is called, OnPageLoad is called when entering the window..

Thanks! The naming of OnPageDestroy implied to me that it's was being deallocated.
