Hmmm, well the terminal command: "shutdown -r now" will do that. All
you need to do is call that from Objective-C. I don't remember how to
call terminal commands off the top of my head, but worst comes to
worst you can stick it in an applescript.
I wouldn't recommend running that from a GUI application, though,
because "shutdown -r now" causes an (almost) immediate reboot and
doesn't gracefully quit every running GUI application first. If you
make a program run that, and at least one of your program's users had
unsaved work in the background at the time, then you'll end up with at
least one very angry user...
It also has the inconvenience that you need to run it as the superuser.
