Hi Amit,

I am trying to execute the code written below.
Here IOServiceOpen is giving error   -536870203
Can any one tell the reason for this error.

There's documentation that describes how to interpret I/O Kit error codes.

<http://developer.apple.com/documentation/DeviceDrivers/Conceptual/AccessingHardware/AH_Handling_Errors/chapter_6_section_2.html>

In this case, -536870203 is 0xe00002c5, which indicates a system of
I/O Kit (0x38) and, within that, the common subsystem (0).  The error
value is that in <IOKit/IOReturn.h>, namely:

#define kIOReturnExclusiveAccess iokit_common_err(0x2c5)// exclusive access and
// device already open



There's documentation about this error code as well.

<http://developer.apple.com/documentation/DeviceDrivers/Conceptual/AccessingHardware/AH_Handling_Errors/chapter_6_section_3.html>


The Window Server has the IOFramebufferUserClient open exclusively, thus the reason for the error you are seeing.


What is it you are trying to do?

Cheers,
