This may have to do with rxapi on MacOSX to have to be started over and over again. In the past years problems with the rxapi plist file on MacOSX have been pointed out repeatedly e.g. cf. the mailing threads with CVBruce's posting on 2010-12-24 who also later pointed at the core problem on MacOSX cf. CVBruce's posting on 2011-02-20. In this posting (seven years ago by now) Bruce reported at having written a work-around for that problem for rxapi on MacOSX modelled after the work around put in place for AIX, but was told that someone would rewrite it later. If I am not mistaken, the ooRexx CMake file causes an "org.rexxla.oorexx.rxapid.plist" to be used that points to "/usr/bin/rxapi" whereas the official location (after Apple banned any non-system and non-Apple software to be installed into "/usr/bin") should be probably "/usr/local/bin/rxapi" instead. --- In any case this MacOSX rxapi problem should be addressed once ooRexx 5.0 went GA.
