How to I catch the Main Window Closing ?

I want to catch the Main Window Closing, because I must stop an working
thread, before I allow the closing.

Help me: how to I register an OnCloseQuery like procedure ?

Thx:

Hello wx community,

While trying to make my application more Mac-compliant,
I came across the following problem:
The application is document-based, i.e. for each document I open
one (or several) windows.
On e.g. Linux, you start the application with the documents you want to see.
On a Mac, you can start the application by opening one or more documents.
This works as expected.
Now I also want the possibility to start the application first, and then
open the document, which should interact with my application.
I know the application receives some Apple Event (odoc), but is a wx event sent,
or what else can I do ?

I spent a long time trying to figure this out, but for GURL apple
events, no ODOC ones.

I wrote up my solution at:
  http://wiki.wxpython.org/index.cgi/Catching_20AppleEvents_20in_20wxMAC

But I'm not positive this will work for ODOC events, because I think
the event loop for wxMac is already trapping them, and calling
wxApp->MacOpenFile(). So you would have to either wait for
MacOpenFile() to be added to wxPyApp, or add it yourself.

See wxWindows/src/mac/app.cpp for more clues.

Very simple, you only need to add an EVT_CLOSE event handler to your main
frame.
