[AWS] Shutdown

hi :-)



if i understood well, roughly speaking there is 2 ways to manage a  
server :


1
Start(WS, ... );
Wait(Q_Key_Pressed);
Shutdown(WS);

it's nice to make tests
Wait terminates when the user type "q", then we have to Shutdown the  
server


2
Start(WS, ... );
Wait(No_Server);

it's the one to use in production
Wait terminates when the server is down
so we have to do "Shutdown(WS);" when we want to close it (for  
example when there is a call to a given url)
and we don't have to Shutdown the server after that


i don't see in which case "Wait(Forever);" can be useful



am i right ?

well,
is there a device so that Shutdown is called when the computer is  
restarted ?

i hope that when i type "reboot" the server is not just badly killed,  
because i want to save some data in files, and some things like that,  
after the "Wait" command
