One Main TopWindow and several others "normal" TopWindows, how?

I need several normal TopWindows to run independantly but to be closable if Main window closes.

Because this doesn't work:
#include <CtrlLib/CtrlLib.h>

GUI_APP_MAIN
{
	TopWindow w1;
	TopWindow w2;
	w1.SetRect(0,0,200,200);
		
	w1.Open();		
 	w1.Title("w1").Run(); //Activate() doesn't help either...
	
	w2.Open();		
	w2.Title("w2").Run();
}

Btw, this-
 
w1.Open(NULL);

doesn't work either despite the

ok, I need something like this:
#include <CtrlLib/CtrlLib.h>

GUI_APP_MAIN
{
	TopWindow w1main;
	TopWindow w2;
	TopWindow w3;
			
	w1main.SetRect(0,0,100,100);
	w1main.OpenMain();		
	w1main.Title("w1main").Run();

	w2.SetRect(200,200,200,200);
	w2.Open(&w1main);		
	w2.Title("w2").Run();

	w3.SetRect(400,400,300,300);
	w3.Open(&w1main);		
	w3.Title("w3").Run();
}


How to make it work?

Use OpenMain for all windows, but issue Run for the "main" window instead of Ctrl::EventLoop. That way, loop will be ended by closing the "main" window (and rest will get closed by destructors).

Just checked, it does, however above leads to ambiguity, you have to use

w1.Open((TopWindow*)NULL);

which is the same to what OpenMain does Smile

Thanks! This works now:
#include <CtrlLib/CtrlLib.h>

GUI_APP_MAIN
{
	TopWindow w1;
	TopWindow w2;
	TopWindow w3main;

	w1.SetRect(650,500,100,100);
	w1.OpenMain();		
	w1.Title("w1"); 
	
	w2.SetRect(400,300,200,200);
	w2.OpenMain();		
	w2.Title("w2");

	w3main.SetRect(50,50,300,300);
	w3main.OpenMain();		
	w3main.Title("w3main").Run();	//you must Run() the last one!		
	
}

The moral of the story is:

- Run loop is associated with single window, runs until the window is closed or the loop is explictly ended by the Break.

- Ctrl::EventLoop is not associated with any particular widow and keeps running as long as there are any windows open
