  net.curre.prefcount.util.mac.MacOsHandler

public class MacOsHandler
extends java.lang.Object

This is a Mac OS helper class to assist with handling of MAC OS events using the com.apple.eawt.Application class. This class will not work on a platform other than Mac OS.

It's important to note, that in this class, we use classes from the com.apple.eawt package, but since no such package exist on a non-Mac platform, we must use reflection API to create objects and invoke methods of those Mac-specific classes.
