Hello, I am experimenting with OS X apps written in Python and need to detect if there is already an instance of Python.app running with certain script. My script modifies CFBundleName on-the-fly from "Python" to "MyApp" to change the app title in the menubar. If I start another instance and check CFBundleName of the running apps, it will only tell me the original value, i.e. "Python":
for app in NSWorkspace.sharedWorkspace().runningApplications(): bundle = NSBundle.bundleWithURL_(app.bundleURL()) name = bundle.infoDictionary().get('CFBundleName') if name in ('Python', 'MyApp'): print name # => prints Python So I need to find a way to mark a Python.app instance that runs MyApp script to be able to abort launching duplicate instances. Is there such way? Thanks, Andrei -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
