If you did the backend in Carbon, you could only link to the CoreServices.framework and not the Carbon.framework as the latter requires a connection to the window server and may cause your process to terminate when someone logs out. CoreServices includes CarbonCore so you have Alias, File, and Folder support. You can also use *parts* of ApplicationServices as well. See http://developer.apple.com/releasenotes/Carbon/AppleEvents.html "The AppleEvent framework will not force a connection to the window server; this allows daemons and startup items to continue working across logouts."

You cannot use any of the CoreGraphics framework, nor can you get the ProcessSerialNumber of your daemon.

I was thinking I could do the server in Carbon and the frontend in Cocoa, as well as the PrefPane to be able to control the server, process, and users of the server. Anyone have any information?
