Re: Gracefully shutting down a thread in a DLL

Seriously: there's no way. The cleanup thread must be terminated
before PROCESS_DETACH is called by the loader. Perhaps if you hook the
"ExitProcess()" API so that you're noted when the application wants to
quit?

That sounds like a possibility. I've never hooked an API so I'll do some
research on that unless someone knows why that might not work.

Thanks for the idea!
