I don't see this on my side. I have let macOS launch my screensaver several times, but still I see exactly one process: legacyScreenSaver (Wallpaper) Also, I don't see any process "ArtSaver" (the name of my plugin).
No, that's not what I mean. You won't see multiple legacyScreenSaver processes, but you should note that each time you start and stop your screensaver, you should see the memory and cpu (depending on how much cpu your screensaver actually uses) usage of legacyScreenSaver increase. You can easily illustrate this by logging when your ScreenSaverView starts and stops. -(void) startAnimation { [super startAnimation]; NSLog(@"XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX start %@", self); // Do whatever else you do in your screensaver. } -(void) stopAnimation { [super stopAnimation]; NSLog(@"XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX stop %@", self); // Do whatever else you do in your screensaver. } Using something like those XXXXXXXXXXX will make it easier to filter them in Console.app. You should see the starts, but not the stops. And logging the address of self shows you that there are instances of your ScreenSaverView for every screen and for every launch. A few minutes ago, legacyScreenSaver is using 1.29G. I then started and stopped the screensaver twice, letting it run for a bit each time. It's now up to 1.95G. My code to force quit it doesn't always work, because legacyScreenSaver is just weird. -- Steve Mills Drummer, Mac geek _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
