Using a custom mach port name

[khcrysalis]

I've come across this library for use in one of my projects but I've found that I couldn't communicate with my own xpc service as there's no way to specify a mach port name to connect to, from my understanding the provided examples are more geared towards using launchctl commands.

If theres any insight on how I could achieve this would be very much appreciated!

Hi @khcrysalis! To understand your use case a little better, do you already have a mach_port_t?

A bit rusty since I haven't had a Mac for a bit, but I think you could do something like:

• xpc_pipe_create_from_port to get a pipe from your Mach port
• Try adding a param here to pass in your custom xpc_pipe_t.

Give it a whirl and let me know if it works. Happy to accept a PR for this!!
