What is Unbox FOR MAC?

Unbox FOR MAC

Unbox is an open source and free daemon and client library, implemented using CPDistributedMessagingCenter, to make various filesystem operations possible for restricted/sandboxed applications. Having a similar functionality to as of Sandcastle, Unbox makes it possible to actually execute filesystem operations as if under user root. Unbox also doesn't hook into Springboard (as it has a separate daemon), so it won't cause your iPhone's UI to lag or become unresponsive.

Features:

• Open source


• Free to use


• Daemon and client library


• Supports various filesystem operations


• Similar functionality to Sandcastle


• No lag or unresponsiveness on iPhone UI

How to Use:

The actual commands are executed by the daemon which does setuid(0) to run under user root. You communicate with it using the client library (gcc -lunbox, #import). A detailed synopsis of the commands Unbox can execute is available HERE.
