Hi all,

just had a closer look at the issues I had with ejecting discs using libcdio on OS X.

To eject, we scheduled the DADiskUnmount and DADiskEject commands and then ran CFRunLoopRunInMode(kCFRunLoopDefaultMode, 30.0, TRUE); to execute. This runs the current runloop until a connected source gets signaled or it times out. The catch is that it stops on _any_ connected source getting signaled which works fine for command line applications where usually only our own source (dacontext.canceled) is attached to the runloop. However, in Cocoa applications many other sources may be connected to the same runloop and fire signals all the time. The solution is to run that call in a loop until our source got signaled or it timed out.

Another issue was in using kDADiskUnmountOptionDefault when unmounting. This unmounted only the audio part when dealing with CD-Extra discs; the data session stayed mounted and prevented the disc ejection. I changed it to kDADiskUnmountOptionWhole to remedy.
