Re: Saturday, January 26, 2002
Conduit Manager shows in a terminal window under the top command, while it doesn't show up at all in Process Manager. RadioUserland doesn't either. Wonder what's up with that?
It's a bug in ProcessViewer.
Background:
There are two formats for apps on OS X: Mach-O and CFM.
Cocoa apps are Mach-O.
Carbon apps may be Mach-O apps, but if they're ports from OS 8/9 they're probably CFM apps. (For example -- BBEdit and MSIE are also CFM apps.)
The bug is that, instead of displaying the name of the app as top does, ProcessViewer displays LaunchCFMApp for each CFM app.
It's annoying, but then I usually use top or ps rather than ProcessViewer, so it doesn't annoy me that much.
