HIToolbox warning in terminal

Hi,

I am getting a report inside the terminal when running root (see report below) and the comments are related to HIToolbox. I was not successful in resolving the issues through google searches. Has anyone experienced a similar problem and knows how to solve it? Please share

Thanks, KG

I am getting a report inside the terminal when running root

You’re running GUI code as root. To what end?

We do not, in general, support GUI code running as root because our GUI frameworks have way too much attack surface.

  • Hi @eskimo excuse me I was not clear above, by "root" I'm referring to ROOT CERN and even some C++ scripts. I get the above report whenever I run anything in the terminal.

Excuse me for not being clear above, by root I'm referring to ROOT CERN plus any macros I run inside the terminal, I get the same error above.

by root I'm referring to ROOT CERN

I don’t understand that. To mee CERN expands to Conseil Européen pour la Recherche Nucléaire, and I don’t think that’s what you mean (-:
