One isn't that big of a deal, but I've filed a rdar for it anyway,
and it's
that you can't actually set the Hide property. It just fails in odd
ways.
Actually, when I wrote ^my^ wrapper for LSSharedFileList, I found that
Hide fails consistently. You might want to reference the bug I filed,
5901742, 2008-04-30. Still open :(
The other one, however, is pretty major...
Another good reason to not use Login Items.
If anyone has any ideas for a workaround or solution, please let me
know!
Yes. Instead of using a Login Item, have launchd launch whatever you
want launched at login, and keep it running. This way, your user only
has one UI to deal with adding/removing your login item: Your UI.
I've come to the conclusion that Login Items is for users who have a
preference to see their Mail.app, iCal, coffee-maker, or whatever
launched at login. For an application to place itself or its Helper
in Login Items is redundant and confusing to the user. And, of
course, redundant and confusing concepts lead one to write lots of
buggy code.
