I have an application that needs to display a message when it quits. Its
not a LSUIElement or LSBackgroundOnly, just a faceless app that displays a
message and plays a sound at computer restart/shutdown. The sound plays
every time, but I don't always see the dialog, maybe 1 in 5 times. My
question at this point is not about the dialog not displaying, not yet
anyway, but how to tell my app to quit without actually restarting or
shutting down the computer. Years ago under Classic, I would write an
Applescript to do this, but it seems that you don't get even basic
Applescript support for free anymore, so I have to add it. More trouble
than its worth. So my question to the list is:
How do I tell my faceless app to quit or how can I mimic a
restart/shutdown? I can send various quit signals using Activity Monitor,
but those don't seem to allow for a proper shutdown sequence.
In the meantime, I'll probably just give my app a face just for testing,
and go from there, but I'd like to find out if there's a better way of
doing this.
Thx
