How to set save notification when click close in document based application

I am doing a simple document based application. I've implemented readFromData and dataOfType function. Creating a newDocument and saveDocument are working. However, the question is how to set up save notification when user clicks Close. I add some data in my application and when I click close, it just directly close. There is no save notification. I think it was supposed to have it in document based application.

I tried windowWillClose:(NSNotification*)a, having an alertsheet. The alert comes and window closes immediately.

What I am missing?

Use NSDocument -updateChangeCount: method to track changes in your document. Like :

// add some data to theDocument
[theDocument updateChangeCount:NSChangeDone];

But just read the documentation, you may not need to update change count yourself, if you use default document undo manager.

Implement this kind of logic, and you will be done. 

- (BOOL)isDocumentEdited{
        if (somethingGotChanged){
            return YES;
        }
        else{
            return NO;
        }
        //or return somethingGotChanged; //*** make somethingGotChanged BOOL
    }

Here, somethingGotChanged is a flag, which you have to set based on you editing on the data.
