Preventing system sleep

I'm working on a an app that at some point might start transferring a large file to a USB device. Apparently, if the system is set to go to sleep, the transfer will fail.

I was thinking of using the NSWorkspace extendPowerOffBy: but then the doc says "Currently unimplemented".

So, if my app get a notification that the system is going to sleep, how can I delay it?
