------------------ Additional Follow-up Comments ----------------------------
Alex M. applied something in cvs for me which I believe should
fix this.
where connecting to the running application would fail in some
cases (see ChangeLog)
though i'm not seeing the ordering front of the clicked on application and
haven't tried the keyboard modifier, I'm guessing those cases should be handled
in GWorkspace
=================== BUG #6056: FULL BUG SNAPSHOT ===================

Category: Gui/AppKit Severity: 3
Bug Group: Bug Resolution: None
Assigned to: None Status: Open
Summary: Duplicate application launching
Original Submission: If I launch an application, that is already running, i
get an alert panel asking me about renaming, ignoring or aborting. I would
expect that the existing application instance will be activated instead. So the
behaviour should be: If there is already running application, activate it, if
there is not, launch it.
Btw. are there any situations, where one would like to have two instances of
one application open? How are they compared to the usual situations?
>From the point of user, I consider this to be a bug. Moreover, it is another
>additional confusion.

I'm not sure what context you are referring to (ie what application launching
mechanism you are talking about).
Certainly I like the behavior the NeXT workspace used to haver, where double
clicking on an application in the workspace would simply bring the app windows
to the front if the app was already running, but a keyboard modifier would
force the launch of another copy of the application.
I see that as an issue for the workspace manager ...
If it uses the NSWorkspace method launchApplication:shoiwIcon:autolaunche: the
behavior should be the one we like. Are you saying that there are
circumstances where this method does not work properly?
Or are you talking about some other situation entirely?
