11. t::Exit(n)

This function calls the operating system function exit() to terminate an application. A similar result can be reached in the command line version of the interpreter when an error is not handled. The differences that the programmer has to be aware before using this function are the following:

• This function exits the program, even if there are higher level error handling routines defined.
• The interpreter finalization routines are not called. This may cause problem in some applications, where resources need specific release.
• This function will stop the process and not the thread. It means that calling this function from a multi-thread variation, like Eszter SB Application Engin will stop all running threads, all interpreters and quits the service.
