macOS Preventing the "Save on Exit" dialogue on exit of a Cocoa Document Application

[gwelmarten]

Hi
I have a Cocoa document based application that I have been building, that allows you to open seperate views and interact with a webview component. However, when ever you have interacted with it, and then go to close the application, a message comes down saying:

"Do you want to save the changes you made in the document “Untitled”?
"Your changes will be lost if you don’t save them."

I wish to make it that when my application is closed, this message is not shown. I do not need any auto-saves or saving options. How do I prevent this message been shown and disable it?

Thanks in advance for any help and support.

Hi
Thanks very much for the code. Not completely sure which file in my XCode project to put this code. Please could you tell me? I assume it would be in MyDocument.h or MyDocument.m.

Thanks in advance.

It overrides the NSDocument method in your subclass.
