I am working on a sandboxed app. The application contains few other helper apps. I am getting pids and path of these running helper apps using following APIs :

proc_listpids() proc_pidpath()

But the system is not allowing above calls and gives following error on Console :

Sandbox: MyAppName (14156) deny(1) process-info-listpids

How can we avoid this restriction via any entitlement ?

No.

What are you using libproc for?

Is your app sandboxed because you intend to distribute it via the Mac App Store? Or just because it’s the right thing to do?
