Kicad process doesn't exit cleanly after using the plugins

[qu1ck]

In wxWidgets the main event loop doesn't end unless all top level windows are destroyed. Your plugin doesn't destroy it's dialog window properly and it prevents kicad.exe from exiting.

Always call dialog.Destroy, after Show() or ShowModal(), best to do it in a finally block.

Also no need to do both Show() and ShowModal(), just ShowModal() has same effect.

@qu1ck thanks for the suggestions... I'll update the tools accordingly

@qu1ck I'm doing some tests... is there a way to check if the dialog isn't closed correctly and the process doesn't close clean?

Check in task manager (or ps -aux | grep kicad) after closing all kicad windows. If dialog is not destroyed the process will remain running.
