Related to the same functionality that I am trying to add, I should, or have
to, make changes to my Info.plist
This being the addition of NSAppleEventsUsageDescription.
If I remember correctly in prior discussion concerning application specific
environment variables provision was made for the user to include their own
custom Info.plist in the Resources directory? Is that correct? Does the file
name stay the same?
If of interest what I am trying to do is pretty much as described here…
Authorization by AEDeterminePermissionToAutomateTarget waits infinit time
https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/666528
<https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/666528>
Except that hangs intermittently and rarely while mine always hangs.
I want to authorize automation AppleEvents for my own application. This
consistently hangs on the above call (AEDeterminePermissionToAutomateTarget)
done in JNI.
2442 AEDeterminePermissionToAutomateTarget (in AE) + 1313 [0x7fff3a2d8f2c]
+ 2442
_dispatch_semaphore_wait_slow (in libdispatch.dylib) + 98 [0x7fff72fb4fbf]
+ 2442
_dispatch_sema4_wait (in libdispatch.dylib) + 16 [0x7fff72fb4aed]
+ 2442
semaphore_wait_trap (in libsystem_kernel.dylib) + 10 [0x7fff7314ee36]
I have succeeded in getting the same native code to run command line from
Terminal. I got it to run once from my application when the application was
launched command line, it showed a dialog, and granted permission. However, the
dialog application showed as Terminal and not mine.. So now the functionality
actually works if command line launched but doesn’t if double click launched.
With the problem that it hangs if I try the permit double click launched.
So it seems Terminal must be doing something different or have different
authorization than I do. One difference was the entitlement that I originally
was crashing with on this list thread.
Also if of interest I determined that difference by using the Taccy
application.

For Terminal this shows
App signature check:
/System/Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app: accepted
source=Apple System
origin=Software Signing
For my application…
App signature check:
⛔️ spctl error 1
/Users/mjh/HalfPipe/HalfPipe_jpkg/outputdir/HalfPipe.app: a sealed resource is
missing or invalid
I believe this relates to…
JDK-8263156 : [macos]: OS X application signing concerns - a sealed resource is
missing or invalid
https://bugs.java.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=JDK-8263156
<https://bugs.java.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=JDK-8263156>
Although I believe
codesign -v --verbose=4 outputdir/HalfPipe.app
This verify would be sufficient to reproduce that error for any(?) jpackage
Developer signed application.
I’m not sure what your policies are for using 3rd party tools but Taccy seems
to give you a nice graphical view of application signing/entitlement related.
Sorry for the length,
Thanks
