oneway modifier objective c

Question

a oneway method is asynchronous (the result is not immediately expected)[1]. oneway is used with the distributed objects API. [2]

But i found below code in SCPlugin

+ (oneway void) executeShellCommandAsynchronously:(NSString*)command
{
    [[self taskForShellCommand:command] launch];

    return;
}

+ (void) refreshAllFinderItems
{
    //code
    if (cmd) {
        [ShellTask executeShellCommandAsynchronously:cmd];
    }
}

will oneway behave same in cocoa application(without distributed object)?

Yes. Just because it isn't a part of the distributed objects API, does not mean it won't function in the same way. The keyword is a compiler hint, and not much else.
