MATLAB Central Newsreader - CTRL+C Conflict between Matlab and MFC Mex

CTRL+C Conflict between Matlab and MFC Mex

Bill August — Mon, 06 Oct 2008 15:32:36 -0400

Hi all,
I create a MFC dialog in a mex function. That means i can use the MFC style dialog in Matlab. The problem is that when i use ctrl+c in my MFC Dialog(Which means copy), when i close the dialog, the matlab system also react the message (which is terminate the programme). It gave me an error as,
Operation terminated by user during......
I've tried different setting of the dialog including different modality. It just does not work.
Any help would be appreciated.

From what I've read, you cannot prevent control-c from terminating the function
in Matlab, at least up through R2008a. (I have not looked at R2008b pre-release
at all.)

Hi Walter,
Thank you for you reply.

In 2008, it happens in a script or m-file. For running in the command window there is no error message.

For 6.5, no error message and it works brilliant.

I guess mathworks want to give 'New Message In Response to Ctrl+C'. See http://www.mathworks.com/access/helpdesk/help/techdoc/index.html?/access/helpdesk/help/techdoc/rn/brb410y-1.html&http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&client=opera&rls=en&hs=oJa&q=CTRL%2BC+matlab+Operation+terminated+by+user&btnG=Search

But unfortunately they made a new mistake.
