Send exit event from a plugin

[hhervoche]

I'm writing a video output out-of-tree plugin and at some point in the process, I want to notify VLC to exit.
I'm using VLC media player 2.1.6 Rincewind.

I tried to use the method :

Code: Select all

vout_display_SendEventClose(vout_display_t *vd)

but this method is apparently bugged (https://trac.videolan.org/vlc/ticket/16117#comment:4)

Is there a mechanism to notify VLC to close the plugin and exit ?

No.
