Manager: Process Manager


Carbon will support most of the Process Manager. The exception is the LaunchDeskAccessory function, which is not supported.

Note that some Process Manager functions access a ProcessInfoRec data structure, which contains fields that are no longer applicable in a preemptively scheduled environment (for example, the processLocation, processFreeMem, and processActiveTime fields). Your application should avoid accessing such fields. Changes to the memory model may also affect certain fields.

Supported  ExitToShell

Supported  GetCurrentProcess

Supported  GetNextProcess

Modified  GetProcessInformation

Some fields in the ProcessInfoRec structure may no longer be applicable.

Supported  LaunchApplication

Unsupported  LaunchDeskAccessory

Carbon will not support LaunchDeskAccessory because desk accessories are no longer part of the Mac OS.
