Proper way to exit iPhone application?

Question

I am programming an iPhone app, and I need to force it to exit due to certain user actions. After cleaning up memory the app allocated, what\'s the appropriate method to ca

Answer 1

Apple say:

"Warning: Do not call the exit function. Applications calling exit will appear to the user to have crashed, rather than performing a graceful termination and animating back to the Home screen."

I think that this is a bad assumption. If the user tap a quit button and a message appears that say something like: "The application will now quit.", it doesn't appear to be crashed. Apple should provide a valid way to quit an application (not exit(0)).
