Hi Folks,
We have an AudioUnit that utilizes AppleEvents to communicate with a stand-alone application.
Technical Note TN2247 describes how to declare required sandbox entitlements for an AudioUnit that is not sandbox safe. It does not mention how to declare an entitlement for AppleEvents/AppleScript.
Fundamentally, we need the ability to do IPC to one of our apps from the AU and get replies from the App; it doesn't need to be AppleEvents. But my cursory examination of XPC doesn't appear to support such IPC with another standalone app.
Is there/will there be a way to get an entitlement to send an Apple Event to a specific target, or is there a way to accomplish this with the XPC stuff (maybe an XPC helper that actually does the AppleEvent communication with our app)?
Anyway -- we would like to ensure that we can continue to support sandboxed Audio Unit hosts in the future with these plugins, but it still does not seem like the Sandbox technology will support our use case... or am I wrong?
Best regards,
B.J. Buchalter
