Hello

I have this application running and doing perfectly
fine.

The problem arises when I reboot the Mac. Before
reboot there is a message that My application has not
exited, and deny reboot till I manually exit the
application from the Dock.

Can I do something so that this manual termination can
be made automatic, so on reboot there isn't any need
to
exit the application.

Your app will automatically terminate unless you or the frameworks are canceling the termination. AppKit does this if there are unsaved documents open, etc. It's usually a good thing design-wise when AppKit cancels the termination. The reboot will probably also be cancelled eventually if the app can't be quite because it isn't handling events.


So basically, make sure your app is always receiving events, and I wouldn't worry about when the frameworks pause or cancel the reboot (or logout). If your code is canceling the restart, than the solution is of course to remove that part of the code.
