Hello, I'm working on an alarm and I'm wondering what would be the
best way to make it wake up the computer.
I've heard of IOPMSchedulePowerEvent and I think it's the best way,
but I'll need root privileges and I'm guessing the best way to do
that without making a security hole is to have a helper application
that just tells the computer what time to wake up and have my alarm
application launch it. But there is one thing there, the only way I
can find to do it requires the user to type in a password each time
my alarm starts up and that's not user friendly, so is it possible
maybe to save the user password in the keychain and use that to
authenticate it to schedule an wake up time? Or save the
AuthorizationRef and get that at start up?
Thanks for any tips/help,
Does this help you ?
