This doesn't seem to work. It just goes ahead and does the same thing it was doing before, without waiting for the process to finish first.

The annoying thing about AuthorizationExecuteWithPrivileges is that there is apparently no way to make your program wait for the tool to exit before continuing! This can make things very difficult sometimes...

As long as you are only waiting for one child process at a time, you can use the 'wait' function to wait until it exits.

#include <sys/wait.h>


wait(NULL);

//or

int status;
wait(&status);
//to get the exit status
