Subject: Alternative to NSRunningApplication launchDate?

The docs for NSRunningApplication launchDate say "only available for applications 
that were launched by LaunchServices."

And indeed if the app was launched by Xcode (for debugging) launchDate returns 
nil.

Anyone know another way of finding an app's launch date?  Some UNIX layer API?

The old Process Manager APIs - specifically, GetProcessPID(), GetNextProcess() and GetProcessInformation() - do what you want; they were deprecated in 10.9 but still work on 10.10. And, as far as I know, no substitute API has been announced yet.

HTH,
