[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #44485] GUI: File | Exit from main menu doesn't work when Octave is busy

[Dan Sebald]

Follow-up Comment #4, bug #44485 (project octave):

Hah, https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?44485#comment2 beat me by a few
minutes.

Yes, the issue in https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?41896 is pretty much the
same.

One other thing that would need to be done is clearing out the command queue
because I suppose the user could have typed in a series of commands.  Say the
user types:


>> x = long_running_function();
>> plot(x);
[User chooses File|Exit and an "exit" is placed in the queue]
[Three seconds goes by and dialog asks to exit, says yes]
[The GUI forces an interrupt, then plot() is processed before the "exit" is
processed, of course the GUI could simply just stop the worker thread all
together first]
