Hello,
I have a tool that I launch through the security framework for doing
authenticated stuff. This tool started out as a foundation tool project
template, but I have since added the AppKit framework to one of the
classes to be able to access NSWorkspace (iconForFile:) methods.
Is this a problem? I don't want my tool turning into a visible
application, I want it to remain a faceless background tool. This tool
is compiled into a single file binary, no application bundle here, so
there is no info.plist to modify with values for the NSUIElement or
NSBGOnly keys?
Where do I find information on this topic in the manuals? I tried to
search a bit in the Cocoa documentation, but it seemed to be a bit too
high level for this problem
