If by 'finagle' you mean 'run', then yes, that should work. ;-)

There's a little bit more detail here:

Before entering sleep I would like to send small amounts of data via async instances of CFSocket to the local and some remote hosts.

So I register for the sleep notification:

        [[[NSWorkspace sharedWorkspace] notificationCenter] addObserver: self
selector: @selector(appWillSleep:) name: NSWorkspaceWillSleepNotification object: NULL];

And tell all my local and remote things to stop:

- (void) appWillSleep:(NSNotification*) note
{
        [[thingHandler sharedInstance] stopAllRunningThings:self];
}

Now I presume that the 30 second sleep delay referred to in the docs for NSWorkspaceWillSleepNotification means that my app can dawdle in -appWillSleep for 30 seconds.
Is this correct?
If so then it seems likely that when this method returns the machine may sleep before all the network data requests complete.

Is it possible to finagle the runloop within -appWillSleep to allow my runloop attached CFSockets to persist for up to 30s before sleep overpowers me?
Or have I got this all wrong?

Thanks
