Delay shutdown of kde?
When my MSN client clients, it still needs to teardown some connections nicely. This means it needs to wait for some signals (or a timeout) before it actually quits.
Is it possible to implement such behavour?
The first solution I came up with is:
- subclass KApplication::queryClose()
- refuse the close event
- initiate the connection teardown (this involves signals/slots)
- close the application manually.
Unfortunately, such trick would cancel the KDE logout. Is there another way to solve this, so the closing of the application is somehow delayed?

You could try closing but not quitting yet and quit when finishing your cleanup.

But how can I "close, not quit"? when close() is called, the application closes almost instantly.

I think only if the widget in question is the applicationn's main widget.
If there is not mainWidget, you can close all windows without the application exiting.
