abort
Syntax
- void abort(void)
Description
- Causes the program to terminate processing immediately.
- All open files are flushed and closed but reserved memory is not automatically freed so this function must be used with caution when allocating memory.
Comments
- Depending on why you want to use the Abort function, you might be better to use doAction(CA_CANCEL); instead.
- Abort can cause Photoshop to crash in some test builds of FilterMeister (eg FM 1.0g beta). Changing the abort_mode value in 64-bit plugins may help avoid this crash.
- When using Ctrl+F (Photoshop repeat last filter) condition is ignored with doAction( CA_CANCEL); This doesn't happen with abort( ); At least for this purpose, abort( ); seems to work more reliably than doAction( CA_CANCEL);
