Thanks Rob,That's a good workaround!
But, this will not fit into our requirements of our application.
As per our requirement, we cannot hide the dock icon.
In order to go with your solution, we might have to maintain
a daemon process which does just screen capture and
gives the captured image to the main application(This app will be
visible in dock).
Is there any other way to solve this issue or
should we go with daemon process approach?
Regards,
Srinivas

Similar problem is observed in SonOfGrab Apple sample application.

Is there any workaround to capture the active state of all the
windows in desktop?
If you add the key LSUIElement with a boolean value of YES to your
Info.plist file, your app will run without deactivating other apps.
It will also not have a menu bar or dock icon, however for a screen
capture app that is probably an advantage.
A simple example: http://keniger.com/stuff/ScreenOverlay.zip
(run it from the Finder, not Xcode).
