On Sonoma 14.0, I am receiving the following when trying to launch JMeter or using Intellij both with OpenJdk@11, @17 or @21. I would like some help resolving this: WARNING: Secure coding is automatically enabled for restorable state! However, not on all supported macOS versions of this application. Opt-in to secure coding explicitly by implementing NSApplicationDelegate.applicationSupportsSecureRestorableState:.

You will get that warning even when referencing Tk/Tcl 8.6.12 in Python3 v3.12. If this is a command-line application, simply redirect its stderr to /dev/null (e.g. 2> /dev/null).


#!/usr/bin/env python3

import os
import sys

try:
    import Tkinter as tk      # Python 2
except ImportError:
    import tkinter as tk      # Python 3
	
def main():
	
    # same as 2> /dev/null in the shell
	f = open("/dev/null", "w")
	os.dup2(f.fileno(), 2)
	f.close()

	print("Tcl Version: {}".format(tk.Tcl().eval('info patchlevel')))
	print("Tk Version: {}".format(tk.Tk().eval('info patchlevel')))

	
if __name__ == '__main__':
	sys.exit(main())

Without those first three lines under main(), I get this output when run from the command-line in macOS Sonoma 14.1.1:

Tcl Version: 8.6.12
2023-11-24 12:09:24.253 Python[4114:134228] WARNING: Secure coding is not enabled for restorable state! Enable secure coding by implementing NSApplicationDelegate.applicationSupportsSecureRestorableState: and returning YES.
Tk Version: 8.6.12


and after redirecting stderr (2):

Tcl Version: 8.6.12
Tk Version: 8.6.12


This is not specifically a Tk/Tcl issue as I have Python3 apps using PySide Qt 6.5 that cause that warning too until I gag stderr as I have done above.
