Probs with "BetterAuthorizationSample"-code

Dear all,

as a preface: Hopefully this is the right discussion group for my question - otherwise I apologize for the inconveniance and would ask you for a hint to the right one ...

I am trying around with the "BetterAuthorizationSample"-code to perform privileged system calls in a mostly secure environment.

Everything seemed to work right after introducing the sample stuff to my project but now I have some major problems that I cannot solve by myself:

1. How can I debug my HelperTool? Obviously any breakpoints set in XCode won't work because the HelperTool is launched outside by the launchd.
2. My idea is to use asl to debug "barefoot". But for that I have to install aeach time when I have compiled a modified version of the HelperTool to the system. But how to do this? InstallerTool does not do this itself.
3. How can I deinstall the whole stuff and reinstall it again? To be more precise: I tried like described in 1. and 2. but now the whole thing does not work proper. I removed my files from any place it was stored by hand but the InstallerTool denied to re-install the HelperTool. And the launchd throws every 10 seconds an error message like "cannot start <HelperTool> ..." and so on. Than I copied the HelperTool (with root:admin) to the dedicated folder but lanchd has other probs. ... So my idea is to deinstall the whole stuff to clean up and start again from 0.


Any ideas? I would be very grateful for any input ...

Best regards
Frank
