This attribute determines when an emulator session ends.
| Object Manager | Command line | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Last client exits | lastclient |
The server keeps track of the number of X clients running within the session, and ends the session when this reaches zero. |
| Window Manager exits | windowmanager |
The server ends the session when the Window Manager exits, no matter how many X clients may be running. |
| Only Window Manager remains | windowmanageralone |
The server ends the session when the only remaining X client is the
Window Manager. Some Window Managers (such as OpenLook) run X clients
in the background, which means that this condition is never met. If
you encounter this problem, you should use the No Visible Windows
setting ( |
| Login script exits | loginscript |
The server ends the session when the login script completes. Use this in conjunction with Keep Launch Connection Open if an application has problems shutting down. |
| No visible windows | nowindows |
The server ends the session when no windows are visible. This is useful for window managers (such as OpenLook) that run X clients in the background. |
| Script exits or no windows | loginscriptnowindows |
The server ends the session when either the login script completes or no windows are visible. Use this for applications that are always resumable and that use X clients as this forces a session to close if an application server is re-booted or disconnected from the network. Use this in conjunction with Keep Launch Connection Open if an application has problems shutting down. |
--endswhen nowindows
The emulator session ends when no windows are visible.
