I'm working on a server-side program that should save its state occasionally to prevent data loss. I really don't want the open ports to be closed, all users kicked, etc. just to save the program.
Is there a way to save the image without running the processShutDownList command when not quitting?
OR
Is there a way to detect when an image is being saved-without-quitting and thus know not to shut everything down?

The #shutDown: class method receives a boolean parameter exactly for this purpose (as has #startUp:).

Hmm. Which Squeak version? I'm running 3.8.2a, and I can't find that method. (Maybe which class?)

Any.

Type "shutDown:" anywhere, select it, press Cmd-m (or Alt-m on PCs).
(Maybe which class?)
Every class registered in the shutdown list (although some only implement #shutDown which ignores the boolean parameter).

Funny. You know, there's legit disagreement about top-posting. It's not black and white. For quick replies in which the context probably doesn't need to be reviewed (just remembered because the original happened a few nanoseconds ago) I prefer top-posting as both a poster and reader.

Indeed, my image now functions properly on startup, shutdown, and saving. Thanks!
