System Preferences obviously signals the system to > do this - does anyone know how it does that? I did some more poking around and zeroed in on the following in the system log snippet:
> com.apple.launchd[1]: System: Looking up service com.apple.metadata.mds > com.apple.launchd[1] (com.apple.launchd.peruser.501[160]): Mach service > lookup: com.apple.metadata.mds > com.apple.launchd[1]: Dispatching kevent... > com.apple.launchd[1]: KEVENT[0]: udata = 0x10002b210 data = 0x30 ident = 5 > filter = EVFILT_READ flags = EV_ADD|EV_RECEIPT fflags = 0x0 > distnoted[16]: received_message_from "System Preferences" [A0] post > "SpotlightPrefCumulativePrefChangeNotification" "(null)" Based on my very limited understanding, it seems the Mach service is the key, but I don't know how to simulate what System Preferences is doing. Sean DeNigris p.s. is there a better/additional list to ask about this? _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
