Cleanest way to exit processes?

[stegemma]

A best alternative to wait for processes to terminates could be this one:

Code: Select all

clsTourney::~clsTourney()
{
	for (int i = 0; i < cllEngines.Count(); i++)
	{
		cllEngines[i]->PushCommand("quit");
	}
	Sleep_ms(2000);
	cllEngines.Clear();
}

I've moved the engines handling from the wxWidgets derived component to an external "neutral" object (that I could use without the graphical interface) and then the sleep function has been moved outside the loop, so that I can wait 2 seconds or more, instead of one second for any engine loaded. The "quit" command will be executed by any engine thread concurrently, virtually using the same wait interval.
