Hello all

Some weeks ago a had a problem with "Graceful Application Termination"
(it's a document in
/Developer/Documentation/Cocoa/TasksAndConcepts/ProgrammingTopics/
AppArchitecture/Tasks/GracefulAppTermination.html
)

The problem that a had: my document-based application didn't like
close document propertly, --I mean, when you press CTRL-W and your
document is edited, it would be a mechanis to advertise to the user
that he could lost his work, or when the user quit from the application it
would be a mechanism for searching edited document and send a message to
the user for save or los his work--. Anyway, the documentation say:

"the good news is that you have to do absolutely nothing to effect a
graceful termination of the application. This 'free' behavior is
implemented largely in NSDocumentController"

...well and now I know that it's true.

I rewrote the method "isDocumentEdited" from myDocument class and I
implement the mechanism for decide when the document is edited and
all work perfectly.

For example, in myDocumentClass.m

- (BOOL)isDocumentEdited
{
return [[windowController window] isDocumentEdited];
}

And in myView.m I wrote some like that

- (void)setDocumentEdit:(BOOL)aFlag
{
[[self window] setDocumentEdited: YES]
}

That all.

Regards!
Amilcar
