maybe the system have such kind of API that used to popup dialog for authentication, i means if the user want to run an application which need the administrator access right, so this dialog popup and request the administrator's password. my question is that i can not find out such API, can anyone help me? i

There is a generic C API in Security Framework and objc conterpart in SecurityFoundation, but it depends what you need. reading/writing a file, change the setuid flags on an helper tools, accessing other task… Each dialog requires different rights and some priviledged operations have some built-in helper tools or specific API that can be used.
