Child process on iOS

Hello,

On macOS, I can include a second executable in the app bundle, which the main executable can launch and communicate with via pipes (standard input/output). I've done this before (with app sandbox inheritance).

I've read on other forums that this is not possible on iOS. Is that correct?

I tried popen() and it always fails with the error "Operation not permitted." 😔

I just wanted to confirm before I move on to using frameworks. Thanks for your time.
