1.5.4 Admin Applications

The Admin Applications location contains applications that are only useful to the system administrator. A normal user wouldn’t have enough privileges to use these applications in a useful way.

In GNUmakefiles, the Admin Applications location is available via the GNUSTEP_ADMIN_APPS variable, which is the Admin Applications location for the domain in which the software will be installed. You can also reference the locations in the various domains directly by using the variables GNUSTEP_SYSTEM_ADMIN_APPS, GNUSTEP_NETWORK_ADMIN_APPS, GNUSTEP_LOCAL_ADMIN_APPS and GNUSTEP_USER_ADMIN_APPS.

In gnustep-base, the Admin Applications locations are available by using the NSAdminApplicationDirectory directory key for NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains().
