I've fallen foul of this bug in recent days so have decided to have a
look at it to see if I can provide a patch.
Thank you for the offer of help! :-) (...) I'm CCing Noel and Lionel

In the bug report it was confirmed that a macro assigned to either the
Before Unloading or When Unloading events of a dataform are not called
when the form document is closed.
However, when editing a form and the "Design Mode" option is
toggled the events are called. Also the events when the form is
loaded are called under all circumstances.
I don't have a code pointer ready to give you, but:
1) I've indeed noticed that when opening a form in design mode (that
is, "edit" instead of "open"), the "open" event is called; I've
always found that rather curious, but have never gone through the
time to make a complete bug report of it.
Since you are going to touch that area anyway, it may make sense to
conditionalise these events to "non-design mode". Actually, my
first thought is that *all* events should be disabled in design
mode, but I'm willing to listen to arguments otherwise.
2) Since you say that in design mode the events fire, my expectation /
hope would be that somewhere there is code that does:
if (isInDesignMode)
fireCloseEvent();
Possibly that is just a "forgotten" negation there; it would make
sense to see the git history that put that condition to see its
rationale, and if it turns out it is as I think, just add the
negation.
(Or maybe the code is something like:
if (!isInDesignMode)
return false;
fireCloseEvent();
and then we have to *remove* the negation)
Too see where that code is, I'd suggest to run libreoffice in gdb,
break on the event being called and then look at the backtrace. To
break on the event, you can bind a macro that does:
MessageBosx "Even Called!"
cause the event to be fired (in design mode, thus) and when you get
the dialog, just press CTRL-C in gdb.
well the advice was good ( I was doing it but not looking at my mail to
see this was answered ) anyway some extra info
First the triggering when in designmode isn't unfortunately that helpful
( although it does identify relevant code ) because there appears to be
specific handling for the designmode e.g. see
FmFormView::ChangeDesignMode
258 // --- 4. load resp. unload the forms
259 FmFormPage* pCurPage = GetCurPage();
260 if ( pCurPage )
261 {
262 if ( pFormShell && pFormShell->GetImpl() )
263 pFormShell->GetImpl()->loadForms( pCurPage, ( bDesign
? FORMS_UNLOAD : FORMS_LOAD ) );
264 }
In the normal case of editing the forms ( which presumably that is the
workflow to normally trigger the event ? ) sorry I am not very db forms
enabled but I notice that we don't seem even to hit
ODatabaseForm::load() or ODatabaseForm::unload() (
forms/source/component/DatabaseForm.cxx ) Hopefully the code pointers
above might be useful places to start looking
