Discussion

This method will return false if the application is no longer running when the terminate message is sent to the receiver.

This method may return before the receiver exits; you should observe the terminated property to determine when the application terminates.

Sandboxed applications can’t use this method to terminate other applications. This method returns false when called from a sandboxed application.
