Introduction
------------
Since Mac OS X 10.2 it has been possible to synchronously send an Apple event
from a thread other than the main thread. The technique for doing this is
documented in Technote 2053 "Mac OS X 10.2".
<http://developer.apple.com/technotes/tn2002/tn2053.html>
Unfortunately, this technique isn't quite right. Specifically, due to a bug
in Apple Event Manager <rdar://problem/4976113>, it is not safe to dispose of
the Mach port (using mach_port_destroy, as documented in the technote, or, more
correctly, using mach_port_mod_refs) that you created to use as the reply port.
Doing this triggers a race condition that, very rarely, can cause the system
to destroy some other, completely unrelated, Mach port within your process.
This could cause all sorts of problems. One common symptom is that, after
accidentally destroying the Mach port associated with a thread, your program
dies with the following message:
/SourceCache/Libc/Libc-320.1.3/pthreads/pthread.c:897: failed assertion `ret == MACH_MSG_SUCCESS'
The best workaround to this problem is to not dispose of the Mach port that
you use as the Apple event reply port. If you have a limited number of
secondary threads from which you need to send Apple events, it's relatively
easy to allocate an Apple event reply port for each thread and then never
dispose it. However, if you have general case code, it might be tricky
to track down all of the threads that send Apple events and make sure they
have reply ports. This module was designed as a general case solution to
the problem.
The module exports a single function, AESendMessageThreadSafeSynchronous, which,
as its name suggests, sends an Apple event and waits for the reply (that is,
a synchronous IPC) and is safe to call from an arbitrary thread. It's basically
a wrapper around the system function AESendMessage, with added smarts to manage
a per-thread Apple event reply port.
When <rdar://problem/4976113> is fixed, this module should be unnecessary but
benign.
For information about how this works, see the comments in the implementation.
