Hi,
I've written a Quick Look generator for one of my app's file types. As part of
that I've defined a UTI for that file type. However whatever I do I can't the
UTI to stick. I've rebuilt the app, moved it around and used lsregister to kill
the Launch Services database and rebuild it. Dumping the Launch Services
database shows that the UTI isn't being picked up from the app. It's not
happening on 10.5 or 10.6. Here are the relevant parts of my app's plist:
<key>UTExportedTypeDeclarations</key>
<array>
<dict>
<key>UTTypeTagSpecification</key>
<dict>
<key>public.filename-extension</key>
<array>
<string>tgc</string>
<string>TGC</string>
</array>
</dict>
<key>UTTypeDescription</key>
<string>Terragen 2 Clip document</string>
<key>UTTypeConformsTo</key>
<array>
<string>public.xml</string>
</array>
<key>UTTypeIdentifier</key>
<array>
<string>uk.co.planetside.Terragen_2.clip</string>
</array>
</dict>
</array>
<key>CFBundleDocumentTypes</key>
<array>
<dict>
<key>LSItemContentTypes</key>
<array>
<string>uk.co.planetside.Terragen_2.clip</string>
</array>
<key>CFBundleOSTypes</key>
<array>
<string>TG2C</string>
</array>
<key>CFBundleTypeExtensions</key>
<array>
<string>TGC</string>
<string>tgc</string>
</array>
<key>CFBundleTypeIconFile</key>
<string>TGC.icns</string>
<key>CFBundleTypeName</key>
<string>Terragen 2 Clip document</string>
<key>CFBundleTypeRole</key>
<string>Editor</string>
</dict>
</array>
I have tried commenting out the CFBundleDocumentTypes section so there is just
the UTI but that didn't help.
Can you see something wrong with the above? I'd greatly appreciate any help. So
far I've spent longer trying to get this to work than I did on the Quick Look
generator itself.
Regards,
Jo Meder
