Hi list I'm trying to move some files to the trash with my app, but I need OS X to throw an authentication dialog when the requested file needs permission to be moved.
I need a solution that will work from 10.6 onwards, so I've been looking at NSWorkspace's recycleURLs rather than NSFileManager's trashItemAtURL (not available pre 10.8). My problem is that recycleURLs doesn't appear to offer an option to ask the user for a password if it's needed. Is there another method I can use that will, or a way to make recycleURLs throw the dialog? I know I could probably run an NSTask and call "rm" but that's a bit more brutal than what I'm looking for. I'd like the user to actually see the file in the Trash and to know that they've authorised its removal.
