Re: Rosetta and Code Injection



I all ready had a similar discussion with Terry about this a while ago.

You guys know that if Apple developed and supported a way of function hooking, it could include information in crash reports about what kext/ process is hooking a process or the kernel. If your worried about support costs, how about not supporting a app when it is being hooked?

So how does one distinguish the Rosetta process from the PPC surrogate?

You don't.

Let me put this pretty bluntly... how would you like to be the poor engineer catching bug reports because Joe Blows thread that he ran in your address space happened to overwrite something critical because Joe Blow made a mistake in his code? How much worse would this be if someone were giving out cookbooks to people who otherwise were beginning coders?

Now ask yourself again why this is unsupported...
