add_event_query_closing(cb)

Adds a listener for an event.

Event is invoked when somewhere tries to close listened object

Is called before XCloseListener.notifyClosing(). Listener has the chance to break that by throwing a CloseVetoException. This exception must be passed to the original caller of XCloseable.close() without any interaction.

The parameter gets_ownership regulate who has to try to close the listened object again, if this listener disagree with the request by throwing the exception. If it’s set to False the original caller of XCloseable.close() will be the owner in every case. It’s not allowed to call close() from this listener then. If it’s set to True this listener will be the new owner if he throw the exception, otherwise not! If his still running processes will be finished he must call close() on listened object again then.

If this listener doesn’t disagree with th close request it depends from his internal implementation if he deregister itself at the listened object. But normally this must be done in XCloseListener.notifyClosing().

The callback KeyValArgs.event_data will contain a UNO com.sun.star.lang.EventObject struct.

Note

The callback event is an instance of KeyValArgs with the following properties: event.key=gets_ownership, event.value is a bool and event.event_data is com.sun.star.lang.EventObject.

This is because the UNO interface com.sun.star.util.XCloseListener has the following signature: void queryClosing ([in] com::sun::star::lang::EventObject Source, [in] boolean GetsOwnership).
