NSProcessInfoMBS.argument(index as Integer) as string

dim p as new NSProcessInfoMBS

dim i,c as Integer

c=p.argumentCount-1
for i=0 to c
  MsgBox p.argument(i)

NSProcessInfoMBS.arguments as string()

Returns array of strings with the process's command-line arguments.

NSProcessInfoMBS.beginActivity(options as Integer, reason as string) as NSProcessInfoActivityMBS

dim Activity as NSProcessInfoActivityMBS // property in your window, control, thread, app
dim AllowAppNap as boolean // allow or not?

dim ProcessInfo as NSProcessInfoMBS = NSProcessInfoMBS.processInfo
if AllowAppNap then
  Activity = nil
else
  // disable sleep to let us make something...
  Activity = ProcessInfo.beginActivity(NSProcessInfoMBS.NSActivityBackground, "Backup running")
end if

options: Options for the activity. See constants for possible values.
reason: A string used in debugging to indicate the reason the activity began.

Returns an object token representing the activity.

Indicate completion of the activity by calling endActivity passing the returned object as the argument.
Available in OS X v10.9 and later.

For Windows, please check WindowsThreadExecutionStateMBS to prevent system sleep.

NSProcessInfoMBS.Constructor

NSProcessInfoMBS.disableAutomaticTermination(Reason as string)

When this counter is greater than zero, the app will be considered 'active' and ineligible for automatic termination.
An example of using this would be disabling autoquitting when the user of an instant messaging application signs on, due to it requiring a background connection to be maintained even if the app is otherwise inactive.
Each pair of calls should have a matching "reason" argument, which can be used to easily track why an application is or is not automatically terminable.
A given reason can be used more than once at the same time (for example: two files are transferring over the network, each one disables automatic termination with the reason "file transfer in progress")

NSProcessInfoMBS.disableSuddenTermination

This method increments the sudden termination counter. When the termination counter reaches 0 the application allows sudden termination.

By default the sudden termination counter is set to 1. This can be overriden in your application Info.plist. See "Sudden Termination" for more information and debugging suggestions.

Available in Mac OS X v10.6 and later.

NSProcessInfoMBS.enableAutomaticTermination(Reason as string)

When this counter is greater than zero, the app will be considered 'active' and ineligible for automatic termination.
An example of using this would be disabling autoquitting when the user of an instant messaging application signs on, due to it requiring a background connection to be maintained even if the app is otherwise inactive.

A given reason can be used more than once at the same time (for example: two files are transferring over the network, each one disables automatic termination with the reason "file transfer in progress")

NSProcessInfoMBS.enableSuddenTermination

This method decrements the sudden termination counter. When the termination counter reaches 0 the application allows sudden termination.

By default the sudden termination counter is set to 1. This can be overriden in your application Info.plist. See "Sudden Termination" for more information and debugging suggestions.

Available in Mac OS X v10.6 and later.

NSProcessInfoMBS.endActivity(activity as NSProcessInfoActivityMBS)

activity: An activity object returned by beginActivity.
Available in OS X v10.9 and later.

• /MacCocoa/Process Activity

NSProcessInfoMBS.operationSystemVersion(byref Major as Integer, byref Minor as Integer, byref Patch as Integer)

One call to get all three parts.
