Is the only way to allow a user to write to a protected location use the AuthorizationExecuteWithPrivileges function? If so, is there a way to tell when the application has quit, and get the exit code? If not, how would I go about getting sufficient privileges to write to protected locations? Does using a setuid tool mess up the ability for a user to delete an application, assuming the setuid tool is imbedded in an application's bundle?Thanks for any help!
See Nick's response... it was helpful. However -- I have a question:What are you trying to do and what do you hope to gain by protecting the data in this fashion?
Specifically, going down this path means that any non-admin user will not be able to use whatever functionality in your application requires authorization.... is that intended?
