fxruby users - Mar 2010 - Need help getting ALT+F4 hotkey to work

Hi there, quick question.  I am trying to make my app aware of the ALT+F4
hot-key to quit but can''t quite get the syntax correct.

My app has a method to handle the close/quit event, and I have the following
lines:

----
    button_quit.connect(SEL_COMMAND, method( :onCmdQuit ))
    self.connect(SEL_CLOSE, method( :onCmdQuit ))
#    self.accelTable.addAccel( fxparseAccel( "Alt+F4" ), self, method(
:onCmdQuit ) )
----

The first 2 lines work as expected and re-route the Quit event from either
the ''Quit'' button or the [X] close button from the title bar
to the shutdown
method. (good)

The 3rd line doesn''t work though.  When I run the app, I get the error:
"in
`addAccel'': can''t convert Method into Integer
(TypeError)"

What am I missing?  I''ve tried several variations on that command to
get the
hot-key to work but I''ve had no luck yet.

You probably (I didn''t test it) need to send SEL_CLOSE command to your
main window in third line (and then it will be catched by your second
line), using technique mentioned under that link.

Read docs, they contain lots of info.

I read the docs before I posted my question.  They do contain lots of info
but nothing that helped me.

Can you provide an example to help me understand what you''re
suggesting? I
don''t know how to that.

Thanks.

What happens if you replace the third line with this:

    self.accelTable.addAccel( fxparseAccel( "Alt+F4" ), self,
FXSEL(SEL_CLOSE, 0) )

?

Aha!  You da man!  Who da man?  You da man!  =)

Thanks Lyle.  That works perfectly.

Cheers!
