As I believe was posted on this list and on the darwin list you will
need to include a custom kext (see iJect on versiontracker) to handle
this. The F12 is never getting into application space and as such your
application cannot get ahold of it.

This is
coming to a head for me, so let's try again. This might not even be the
correct list to post this question. If not, someone please direct me to
the
correct list.
I have a program that I have used for years on other platforms. I am now
porting it to OS X. It makes use of the F12 key on the keyboard. The
newer
CD-RW drive no long opens using the front panel push button. You have to
push F12 to open it. Somehow Apple's driver is gabbing it at a system
level,
because the F12 key never makes it into my application even though all
of
the other function keys do. I have tried catching key down events at all
levels of my application, but the F12 just never gets to me.
Does anyone know of a way to remap the CD-RW open to another key
freeing up
F12 for my application?
Thanks.
