ArduBlock window will close without asking if you want to save your work.

Click the big 'X' to close ArduBlock and it just does it - no warning about losing unsaved work.

I've had a look on how to do this but there are many ptions and I just don't know enough Java to pick the correct one.

Hope someone can fix this?

This feature already in ardublock
if you did some change on canvas, ardublock will remind you if you click
the X button.

Hi,
I am not good at this - but I tried.
I got something which works when ardublock-all.jar is run by itself but it does not work when run from the Arduino IDE.

I have just noticed that... runing Ardublock from the menu in the Arduino IDE and clicking the 'X' -Close button in Ardublock does not close Ardublock - it just hides the window. If do some work in Ardublock, 'close' it and then click "tools - Ardublock" again in the Arduino IDE - all your work is still there.

As a silly example... In Main.java set
openblocksFrame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.DO_NOTHING_ON_CLOSE );
and ardublock-all.jar does not close when run on it's own. Run from the Arduino software and there is no change - it still 'closes'.

Perhaps see issue raised on the Arduino github

arduino/Arduino#6869

[TonyCallear]

If I understand #6869 correctly, there is no mechanism to interrupt the Arduino IDE closing from a tool like ArduBlock - and so ArduBlock silently dies and loses any unsaved work.

And no prospect of the Arduino IDE team coding that just for one little tool like ArduBlock either.

AFAICT other ways to lose work without warning are now taken care of??
