[Kde-perl] Capturing close events

[Ole Christensen]

Marius,

seems you are doing something wrong. I have already overloaded 
closeEvent and it works fine. This is (approximately) my source within 
the main window package:

---snip---
package Main;

...

sub closeEvent
{
   my $ev = shift;

   item -> cleanup ();

...

   $ev -> accept ();
}
---snip---


item is a Qt::attributes and holds some kind of object (do not remember 
well) derived from Qt::Object. You do not need explicit access to the 
this pointer.

Hope that helps a bit,
Ole.
