@fsw,
Nice demo. Thank you.

Thanks for this example.

Can you give us also an example to wakeup the computer.

Based on the source code of pmset

Code: Select all

; PB 5.40+

; For security purposes, caller must be root or the console user

#MACH_PORT_NULL = 0

ImportC "-framework IOKit"
  IOPMFindPowerManagement(master_device_port)
  IOPMSleepSystem(fb)
  IOServiceClose(connect)
EndImport

fb = IOPMFindPowerManagement(#MACH_PORT_NULL)
If #MACH_PORT_NULL <> fb
  err = IOPMSleepSystem(fb)
  If err
    Debug "error"
  EndIf
  IOServiceClose(fb)
EndIf

In PureBasic:

Code: Select all

RunProgram("/usr/bin/pmset", "sleepnow", "")

Easy.

And what's the Code behind the RunProgram function? Yes, it's such ObjC code -
a wrapper on top of the real OS method. You can do this with every programming language.

Danilo, I'm truly sorry if I hurt your feelings.
It was not my intent to put ObjectiveC down.
ObjectiveC, I'm sorry.
Will not do it again.
As sign of regret I will modify my initial post.

Modified my first post.
Hope it's better now.
