#
# Used under OS 10.15 Catalina and later to launch screensaver graphics apps
#
# BOINC screensaver plugin BOINCSaver.saver (BOINC Screensaver Coordinator)
# sends a run_graphics_app RPC to the BOINC client. The BOINC client then
# launches switcher, which submits this script to launchd as a LaunchAgent
# for the user that invoked the screensaver (the currently logged in user.)
# This script then launches gfx_switcher, which uses fork and execv to
# launch the project graphics app. gfx_switcher writes the graphics app's
# process ID to shared memory, to be read by the Screensaver Coordinator.
# gfx_switcher waits for the graphics app to exit and notifies then notifies
# the Screensaver Coordinator by writing 0 to the shared memory.
#
# We must go through launchd to establish a connection to the windowserver
# in the currently logged in user's space for use by the project graphics
# app. This script then launches gfx_switcher, which uses execv to launch
# the project graphics app.
# This Rube Goldberg process is necessary due to limitations on screensavers
# introduced in OS 10.15 Catalina.
