- Thread-topic: How to tell when all kexts are loaded
I have a carbon app that is dependent on an NKE that I
install at startup time. I had all this working fine for 10.3 but now that I am
getting the bugs out for 10.4 I find that 10.4 takes a longer time to load all
the kexts and what every else the OS needs to get started.
My main problem is that my App starts before my kext, I have
my app loaded into ‘Login Items’ and the I load my kext by using
the prescribed method from apple i.e. “ System Startup Programming Topics”,
which includes my StartupParameters.plist, my executable script and so on.
In 10.3 I just put in a wait(10)
call in my app and that seemed to take care of waiting for any 10.3 machine to
load my kext. Now that it takes longer in 10.4 I realize what I really need is
some way for my app to know if the OS is finished with all it’s
startup loading then my app can try and connect to my kext.
Is there some call or set of methods where my app can tell
if all the kexts have been loaded?
Thanks for any information or input ahead of time.
Carl
