Do something like: CFMessagePortRef identityPort = CFMessagePortCreateLocal(NULL, CFSTR(" com.mycompany.myapplication.unique"), NULL, NULL, NULL); if(identityPort == NULL) { printf(stderr, "Application is already launched\n"); exit(1); } // else keep this port around, it will be destroyed once the application exits
