Question

I am trying to make a OS X application that automatically hides “⌘H, not minimize” all other applications when it is launched, and I can’t seem to get it to work. This is what I have for accomplishing this so far…

- (void)awakeFromNib
{
    [super awakeFromNib];

    [[NSWorkspace sharedWorkspace] launchAppWithBundleIdentifier:@"com.Developer.myApp"
                                                         options:NSWorkspaceLaunchAndHideOthers
                                  additionalEventParamDescriptor:NULL
                                                launchIdentifier:nil];
}

Answer 1

[ [ NSWorkspace sharedWorkspace ] hideOtherApplications ];

NSWorkspace class reference

Note: if your awakeFromNib method is executed, it means your application is launched.
So trying to launch it again won’t work.
