Hi,

Anyone knows what would be the right way to excute some C++ code after a Script is completed within Kodi source code? I have a script that is executed by a CDirectoryProvider, and I would like to have a piece of code excuted when it completes.

Should I create a derived class of CDirectoryProvider and override the OnJobComplete() method?? or is there a way to register a callback to be called after the Fetch() is completed?

Thanks in advance for any tip...

ok, following up my own thread, after investigations, it seems that in many cases, after a thread is completed in Kodi, OnJobComplete() is including a call to something like:

Code:

CGUIMessage msg(GUI_MSG_NOTIFY_ALL, 0, 0, GUI_MSG_UPDATE);
g_windowManager.SendThreadMessage(msg);

forcing window update. But in the CDirectoryProvider implementation, OnJobComplete() does not notify the rest of the application. Is this intended? When the content of a containter is set with a script, which executes in a thread, it means the state of the container is not updated when the thread is complete?
