I have a Foundation tool (daemon) that I would very much like to
get volume mount and unmount events. I can't get
NSWorkspaceDidMountNotification because I can't use NSWorkspace.
Is there some other event I can subscribe to, or is there a way
of subscribing to Carbon events for the same action from within a
Cocoa
app? I already checked NSDistributedNotificationCenter, and it
doesn't fire any useful events on volume mount/unmount.
You might want to look at the DiskArbitration framework.
I looked at Disk Arbitration, but didn't see any kind of event
support. There were functions that looked like they would approve
or block volumes from mounting, and functions for getting
information about devices, but nothing that looked like a mount/
unmount notification. I say "looked like" because the documentation
for Disk Arbitration can only politely be described as "minimal."
Look at the source code for disktool.
