Declaration

static func post(element: Any, notification: NSAccessibility.Notification, userInfo: [NSAccessibility.NotificationUserInfoKey : Any]?)

Discussion

Sends notification and userInfo to any assistive applications that have registered to receive the notification from the UI object element in your app. The userInfo dictionary values are restricted to the same values to which accessibility attributes are restricted (for a list of these values, see Attributes). The userInfo dictionary can also be nil (most accessibility notifications don’t require it).
