Re: Limiting app installation

A consumable in-app purchase could be used for this. They are not restored to other devices. However if the user deleted the app and reinstalled it then the purchase would be lost unless you tracked it via some form of online account. On Monday, September 5, 2016, Rick Mann

Re: Window Opened Notification?

Dave, can you clarify whether you want is: 1. a notification when the frontmost window changes, or 2. a notification when some application opens a new window? If #1, observing these NSWorkspace properties looks like the way to go. If #2, bear in mind that applications can open windows that

Re: Window Opened Notification?

There are examples online for making NSArray observable if these are array structures. If you try this path, try it with a simple case where you make an NSArray and then change it. Sent from my iPhone > On Sep 5, 2016, at 4:25 PM, dangerwillrobinsondan...@gmail.com wrote: > > Not sure if

Re: Limiting app installation

Have you even read the App Store guidelines yet? And Apple has a list of lists... try that. Finding you a list is still not a cocoa issue. Gary On Sep 5, 2016, at 2:17 PM, Rick Mann wrote: Fine, can you suggest a better list? On Sep 5, 2016, at 14:08 , M Pulis wrote:

Re: Limiting app installation

If it isn't listed in the app store guidelines, either go for it or ask Apple directly (perhaps a different mailing list) as this off- topic (not a cocoa issue but a distribution issue). Gary On Sep 5, 2016, at 1:35 PM, Rick Mann wrote: Yeah, I know one has to roll their own. I'm asking if

Yeah, I know one has to roll their own. I'm asking if it's allowed by Apple. > On Sep 5, 2016, at 13:34 , M Pulis wrote: > > My bet would be "no" as that would already be part of submitting an app to > the store. > > You could prepare a business case to request this from

Re: Limiting app installation

My bet would be "no" as that would already be part of submitting an app to the store. You could prepare a business case to request this from Apple, but I'd suspect you'll need to roll your own code, and that won't be easy if not impossible without Apple's support. Perhaps Enterprise or

Limiting app installation

Does Apple allow a developer to limit the number of devices on which an app can run? I have an app that requires you to pay more to install it on more than one iPhone and two iPads. It should go without saying these are all on the same Apple ID. I thought Apple didn't allow this. But maybe

Window Opened Notification?

Hi All, Is there any way other that using Accessibility that you can tell when a window is opened is any application? Something like a running app notification? If it is not possible using Cocoa? Is there any way of doing this via the Window Server? All the Best Dave

How to silently use Proxy authentication credentials from Keychain, like Safari, Mail, etc.

Hello everyone. We use C++ boost asyncio for cross-platform networking. Hence, on Mac OS-X, we can’t use higher-level APIs (such as NSURLSession). We use our own proprietary binary protocol, but we need to pass it sometimes through HTTP Proxy on client sites. We use the “HTTP Connect” command
