- Thread-topic: Terminating subtasks reliably
I have a Cocoa app (Leopard) which launches several Foundation Tool subtasks
(since threads are not sufficient in this case). Currently, I terminate
these subtasks via the app-delegate method
-(NSApplicationTerminateReply)applicationShouldTerminate:(NSApplication
*)sender
This works provided one Quits the main app using the Quit menu item.
However, if I force-quit or if I abort using the Stop icon in Xcode, then
the main app terminates without terminating the subtasks.
Is there a more reliable hook (e.g., delegate method) that would always get
called even on force-quit or Stop from Xcode so that these subtasks would
always get terminated? [Otherwise, I have to terminate them from Activity
Monitor.]
Thanks.
