I have written a program that utilizes the Accessibility API to get a

kCFBooleanTrue.
This technique works in all Cocoa applications, but does not work in
any
Carbon applications. I'm suspecting this is because the Accessibility
API is
still "young". However, are there any work arounds I can use *now* to
be
able to change the current front window in Carbon applications?
Unfortunately, I don't think there's any way to change the front window
in Carbon apps using Accessibility. This is certainly because this is
just the first pass at the Accessibility implementation and we don't
know all of the things that developers will need. Please file bugs.
