description = ''
This optional key is used as a hint to launchctl(1) that it should not submit this job to launchd when
loading a job or jobs. The value of this key does NOT reflect the current state of the job on the run-ning running
ning system. If you wish to know whether a job is loaded in launchd, reading this key from a configura-tion configuration
tion file yourself is not a sufficient test. You should query launchd for the presence of the job using
the launchctl(1) list subcommand or use the ServiceManagement framework's
SMJobCopyDictionary() method.
Note that as of Mac OS X v10.6, this key's value in a configuration file conveys a default value, which
is changed with the [-w] option of the launchctl(1) load and unload subcommands. These subcommands no
longer modify the configuration file, so the value displayed in the configuration file is not necessar-ily necessarily
ily the value that launchctl(1) will apply. See launchctl(1) for more information.
Please also be mindful that you should only use this key if the provided on-demand and KeepAlive crite-ria criteria
ria are insufficient to describe the conditions under which your job needs to run. The cost to have a
job loaded in launchd is negligible, so there is no harm in loading a job which only runs once or very
rarely.

This optional key is used to control whether your job is to be kept continuously running or to let

nary of conditions may be specified to selectively control whether launchd keeps a job alive or not. If
multiple keys are provided, launchd ORs them, thus providing maximum flexibility to the job to refine
the logic and stall if necessary. If launchd finds no reason to restart the job, it falls back on
demand based invocation. Jobs that exit quickly and frequently when configured to be kept alive will
be throttled to converve system resources.

Background jobs are generally processes that do work that was not directly requested by the user.

Standard jobs are equivalent to no ProcessType being set.

Adaptive jobs move between the Background and Interactive classifications based on activity over

Interactive jobs run with the same resource limitations as apps, that is to say, none. Interac-tive Interactive
