How to close the window

[daniel_jianfeng]

In my own project, I used the irrlicht.But now I want to close the window by code not by mouse or by keyboard. Is there a method available?

You have to call

Code: Select all

device->closeDevice();

This can be called from any place. This will force one of the next "device->run()" to return false.

Thank you, hybrid. I get it.

My project is a little special, there is no loop in my code. So the method closeDevice is not suitable in this case. Do you have any other solution, greenya.

Code: Select all

while(device->run()){}
device->closeDevice();

I really suggest you to learn some c++ programming and learn from the examples which are provided with Irrlicht SDK. Because you ask stuff which is already there. If you have problems understanding the examples, then you need to get some knowledge about c++ in general, types, variables and code execution flow.

For example the 09.Meshviewer has a menu and when you click File->Exit, the application closes, and the code just executes closeDevice() method. That is your case.
