Hi guys,

I am wondering how is AbortAction working. I mean, I have an action executing inside OnExecute and thus blocking the thread. So, how is AbortAction supposed to kick in?

Hi Miha,   
  
 AbortAction runs in a different thread to OnExecute. When you press the Terminate button, FinalBuilder creates a new thread which handles the terminate, and that thread which calls the AbortAction method on your action class.

That makes sense, thanks.
