How is "Shutdown" implemented inside Kodi? - M-Reimer - 2021-01-03

I've tried but didn't find the right place in the sourcecode, so far.

If I shut down Kodi from its own "Power" menu, does Kodi go through a "cleanup step" including saving configuration before actually triggering the system shutdown command?

Or in other words: Can I be sure that all settings are already stored at the point where the actual shutdown is triggered?

sure it will save your settings before exiting the application.

you can find the relevant code here:
