[Interest] Mac OS X Exit Dock Action

[Jérôme Godbout]

Hi,
If you have a QCoreApplication or any derivated class, you could hook
yourself on the following signal:
QCoreApplication::aboutToQuit()

or could use the following on QMainWindow:
http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qwidget.html#closeEvent

The latter allow you to catch the event and interrupt it if needed (save
before quit for example).
