The question is not the depth of the code path, but who the owner of
the code is. The 800 line solution would lie on my side (as in it
would need to be supported by me even if with support from the great
folks at dts). My whole point is that the supported way is ridiculous
- "autolaunch foo" is a simple request and shouldn't take more than 5
lines of code to specify - heck I bet the whole autolaunch
functionality doesn't have that much code. My suggestion would be for
Apple to add a system call like:
NSRegisterLoginItem(pathToFoo);
And heck while at it add:
NSUnregisterLoginItem(pathToFoo);
NSRegisterLogoutItem(pathToBar);
NSUnregisterLogoutItem(pathToBar);
If they want to be fancy the registration methods could take a BOOL
that indicates whether the process should be launched right after the
registration completes.
