ReleaseStack Message

Syntax

on releaseStack
end releaseStack Sent to the most recently deactivated library stack

Description

The releaseStack message is generated whenever a library stack is made inactive through the issuance of the release library command.

Notes

A releaseStack handler should verify that the stack in which the handler resides is the intended recipient of the message. If the newly deactivated library stack does not handle the releaseStack message, the message is passed up the hierarchy and will be sent to other active library stacks until it is handled.

Examples

Place the following handler in the script of the stack you intend to library. The handler checks that the stack is the intended recipient of the releaseStack message. If the stack is correct, a dialog box is displayed to confirm the release of the stack. on releaseStack if the name of the target is the name of me then else pass releaseStack end if
