Is there an event to capture the closing of the desktop windowed app?

Is there an event to capture the closing of the desktop windowed app? So you could display a dialog to ask the user if he/she wants to exit the app and depending on the choice let it happen or not?

but it has more of notifying purpose and you can't prevent default behavior of not exiting to ask user for confirmation.
It is possible in plain QT however:

just need to come up with proper way to transfer it to lua
