Hi,
I use Eclipse as my IDE, and when I run my application I wish the application itself to run as root. My program currently checks if it is root, and if not it restarts itself with gksudo
. The output, however, isn't written to the console. I can't use sudo
, since it doesn't give me a graphical prompt. (While my program is CLI, Eclipse doesn't permit console interaction afaict)
What's the "right" way to be elevating my application?
