Re: Launching apps in 32/64 mode?

Hi,

Just a thought: The NSWorkspace now offers the following command in Snow Leopard:

launchApplicationAtURL:options:configuration:error:

The configuration also features a NSWorkspaceLaunchConfigurationArchitecture value, which allows to choose the favourite architecture.

So one could create a very simple foundation tool to start certain apps in 32 bit mode. This tool could then be called from an AppleScript, which would just pass the file URL of the chosen application.

Best regards,

Martin
