If you’re willing (or able: beware sandboxing issues) to call either osascript or NSAppleScript, you can do this via a bit of AppleScript magic:


tell application "Finder" to set aPath to POSIX path of (application file id ”com.yourBundleID.yourApp" as string)

tell application "System Events” 
make new login item at end of login items with properties {path:aPath, hidden:false, kind:\"Application\", name:”Your App Name”}
end tell



Best
