That looks exactly as the functionality I was looking for.

Thus, the whole task should be divided into next steps:

1. Set delegate for current NSApp.
2. In above delegate implement -applicationShouldTerminate: method and return NSTerminateLater.
3. Say, this delegate (or some other object) received Notification saying that application is fine to quit now (after all necessary steps performed) then call [NSApp replyToApplicationTerminate:YES] and Application will proceed with quitting.


Is that right? Sorry, but I am a freshman in Mac programming :).

Hi,

I have defined class (say, Download) that uses NSURLConnection to
download something from internet. My application is Cocoa with UI. I
want to call:

[Download cancel]

and wait for notification from this class once user quits application.

In your app delegate, implement -applicationShouldTerminate: to call the above cancel method and return NSTerminateLater. Then, when the cancellation is done, call [NSApp replyToApplicationTerminate:YES]. Or NO, to cancel the termination request.
