Current Sikuli 1.1.2-SNAPSHOT: thread interruption doesn't properly fire

[quellatalo]

In Windows Java environment:

• place sikuli scripts in a thread
• start the thread
• interrupt the thread:
  • if the interruption occurs while sikuli script is working: sikuli prints log about interruption, but it will continues running (like the interrupted exception was caught within sikuli, and handled as printing a log without throwing something or stopping the script)
  • if the interruption occurs in a normal java task, it would throw interrupted exception next normal java Thread.sleep

Edit: I browsed the code and find RobotDesktop uses delay() function which (unlike Thread.sleep) does not allow the exception to be caught. Is it intentional? I find I find it difficult to stop the script while avoiding to exit the whole java program.

Seems that it is made this way. The work around to do the interruption is to separate sikuli and main java program into different processes.

Thanks anyway, I'm closing this.
