btm_launchagent.txt I have a menu bar app which should be triggered to start when a system extension is successfully installed. The menu bar app is configured as a agent which should be started by SMAppServer. SMAppService register/unregister the agent successfully when the program is running locally. When doing the program installation through JamfNow, which is a MDM system, it fails with following error. I think the problem here is that the backgroundtaskmanagementd trys to register the agent with an invalid uid=-1 or uid: 4294967295(0xFFFFFFFF). 2024-10-02 10:45:33.100537+0200 0x156d4 Activity 0x1b927 88 0 smd: (BackgroundTaskManagement) BTMManager.getEffectiveDisposition 2024-10-02 10:45:33.103478+0200 0x156dd Default 0x1b927 282 0 backgroundtaskmanagementd: [com.apple.backgroundtaskmanagement:main] effectiveItemDisposition: appURL=file:///Applications/Company%20Agent.app/, type=agent, url=Contents/Library/LaunchAgents/com.Company.agent.notifier.plist -- file:///, config={ BTMConfigArguments = ( );

Within the output of command "sudo sfltool dumpbtm", in addition to records for UID 0/501/502/..., at the top of the output, there are also records for "UID -2" listed. ======================== Records for UID -2 : FFFFEEEE-DDDD-CCCC-BBBB-AAAAFFFFFFFE ======================== ServiceManagement migrated: true SharedFileList migrated: false LaunchServices registered: false Items: #1: UUID: FC60A3EA-E4B0-4D8C-BA07-1C6E2DF3AA52 Name: (null) Developer Name: (null) Type: developer (0x20) Flags: [ ] (0) Disposition: [disabled, allowed, visible, not notified] (0x2) Identifier: Unknown Developer URL: (null) Generation: 0 Embedded Item Identifiers: #1: 16.com.microsoft.teams.TeamsUpdaterDaemon But a uid with -2 should be invalid, and the guid "FFFFEEEE-DDDD-CCCC-BBBB-AAAAFFFFFFFE" followed looks also strange.

I have a static library staticLib.a which is witten mostly in C++ with one additional obj-C class MyClass. There are two dynamic libs, dynamicLib_A. dylib and dynamicLib_B.dylib are linked with the static lib. When starting the application which loads the dynamic libs at runtime it comes out the following warning: objc[15078]: Class MyClass is implemented in both /path/to/libdynamicLib_A.dylib (0x104f03f90) and /path/to/libdynamicLib_B.dylib (0x10dbf3f48). One of the two will be used. Which one is undefined. It can be found that the C++ names are mangled. For instance, both libdynamicLib_A.dylib and libdynamicLib_B contains string: __ZN18MyClassBC2Ev It looks like the obj-c class name is not mangled. Both libdynamicLib_A.dylib and libdynamicLib_B contains string: 00000000012b7f48 S OBJC_CLASS$_MyClass Question: How to avoid this warning? Why it complains only about the obj-c class but not the C++ class? Is this issue related to name mangling?
