I need to query my daemon status from system tray application using Qt. Can't find any solution to do that.

For the Windows part I can use Win32 API: OpenSCManager -> OpenService -> QueryServiceStatus/QueryServiceStatusEx. Need the way to do the same for Mac.

The daemon's plist located in LaunchAgents, loaded with launchctl load.

It's similar, but not the same. My question is about Qt, not the objective-C. – Igor Gorelik Jul 09 '19 at 04:36
but if system do not exposes functionality (any more) then Qt or Objective C no difference. – Marek R Jul 09 '19 at 09:44
So, that mean no way to implement daemon interaction? – Igor Gorelik Jul 10 '19 at 05:16
