objective c - Cannot invalidate launchd kextcache from helper executable -


i've built uninstaller call helper executable elevated permissions remove driver's launchd-plist, won't come again on next boot cycle.

in order reflect new stage of /library/launchdaemons, invalidate kextcache using following command touch /library/extensions/ showed in question.

however, when helper executable right after plist file removed, wouldn't succeed, , driver still go after reboot. when manually typing command touch /library/extensions right after uninstaller helper finish, trick.

here's how code looks in first option (invalidate helper exec).

        remove(osx_launchd_plist_path);         pid_t pid = -1;         char const * args[] = {"touch", "/library/extensions", null};         posix_spawn(&pid, "/usr/bin/touch", null, null, (char **)args, null);         waitpid(pid, &status, wnohang|wuntraced);

perhaps tell me why different behaviour in each of options.

update:

it seems cache invalidation requires repeat command more once. code worked me, don't have clue why ...

        (int x=0 ; x < 2; x++ ) {             char const * args[] = {"touch", "/library/extensions", null};             posix_spawn(&pid, "/usr/bin/touch", null, null, (char **)args, null);             waitpid(pid, &status, wnohang|wuntraced);             char const * args2[] = {"touch", "/system/library/extensions", null};             posix_spawn(&pid, "/usr/bin/touch", null, null, (char **)args2, null);             waitpid(pid, &status, wnohang|wuntraced);         }

serialization - Convert Any type in scala to Array[Byte] and back -

i have following question: i have variable value in program declared value. i want convert value byte array.. how can serialize byte array , back? found examples related other types such double or int, not any. this should need. it's pretty similar how 1 in java. import java.io.{bytearrayinputstream, bytearrayoutputstream, objectinputstream, objectoutputstream} object serialization extends app { def serialise(value: any): array[byte] = { val stream: bytearrayoutputstream = new bytearrayoutputstream() val oos = new objectoutputstream(stream) oos.writeobject(value) oos.close stream.tobytearray } def deserialise(bytes: array[byte]): = { val ois = new objectinputstream(new bytearrayinputstream(bytes)) val value = ois.readobject ois.close value } println(deserialise(serialise("my test"))) println(deserialise(serialise(list(1)))) println(deserialise(serialise(map(1 -> 2)))) println(deserialise(seri
