Override of default Exit function

[zhangyancal]

Right now, onExit() can't override the default exit() function. For example:

widget.onexit = function()
{
//alert(widget.identifier);
MoObject.trackShutdown("Exit MoSurfPhoto", currentScreen);
var isExit = confirm('- Do you want to exit?');
if (isExit == true)
window.close();
};

For my WRT widget to work correctly, I have to create another Exit-Normally function. But that's not the best solution. I'm wondering Nokia tech can help on this. We will likely work as Nokia partners in the future. This feature is very important for us.

Thanks!

Hello,

Indeed you cannot "cancel" the onexit event, it is called when widget is closed for cleanup etc..

I don't see what is the downside of using custom exit callback function and setRightSoftkeyLabel?

Actually I don't want to cancel the onexit function. What I want to do is to call my own function right before the widget exits. But I was not able to do that. Maybe I missed something there. Do you have any suggestions?

Thanks a lot!

Anybody can help? Thanks a lot!

So you say you want to fire a function right before exit,

isnt that just -exactly- what onexit does? -.-

Yes, it should be. But when I did with my widget on Nokia XpressMusic, it didn't work like that. Maybe it's just this particular phone.
