Sorry - I wrote that code in email and mixed up the ProcessIdentifier
return type with the BundleIdentifier return type in my head.
Correct code for bundle ID should look like this:
NSArray* helperAppList = [NSRunningApplication
runningApplicationsWithBundleIdentifier:@"bundle.id"];
for (NSRunningApplication* app in helperAppList)
{
[app terminate];
}
This will terminate all the helpers that share the same bundle ID.
You can also use process id variation to get a specific helper.
+ (NSRunningApplication *)runningApplicationWithProcessIdentifier:(pid_t)pid
The real sticking issue -- is the sandbox. If you stuck in the
sandbox, you can't terminate helper apps.
