Unlike windows, on a Mac double clicking the Application icon of a
running application will simply bring the already running instance to
the front. To start two instances of a program, the user must create a
copy of the program and run the two different copies. A simple way to
check this would be to check a list of running applications at start up
and give an alert when another instance of your program is found,
though maybe this will not work when the user renames a copy of your
program. Search the archives for an example how to do get a list of
running apps.

Hi All,
I am developing an Cocoa Application using objC++.
I want to make sure that when one instance of my application is
running,
an user cannot launch another instance of the same application either
by
clicking the Application icon or from the terminal.
How do I achieve this?
Looking forward for some guidance.
Thanks & Regards,
Amrit.
