I'm writing an iOS program that stores data in a text file (UTF-8) that
contains custom tags which are only meaningful to my app. Loading the files,
and doing useful work with them is not a problem - but I would like these files
to be sharable, so that one user can send his data files to another user (via
email) and so forth. To this end, I would like users to be able to tap on the
file in mail, for example, and have it open in my app. For some reason, I
can't get this to work.
My guess is that the problem isn't with the code, I suspect that the problem is
with the info plist. My info plist has been set up as follows (I've extracted
the relevant sections, rather than pasting the whole lot):
<key>CFBundleDocumentTypes</key>
<array>
<dict>
<key>CFBundleTypeIconFiles</key>
<array>
<string>sddDataDoc.png</string>
</array>
<key>CFBundleTypeName</key>
<string>Harvert Space Delimited</string>
<key>CFBundleTypeRole</key>
<string>Viewer</string>
<key>LSHandlerRank</key>
<string>Owner</string>
<key>LSItemContentTypes</key>
<array>
<string>com.pax.harvert.sdddata</string>
</array>
</dict>
<dict>
<key>CFBundleTypeIconFiles</key>

<string>csvDataDoc.png</string>

<key>CFBundleTypeName</key>
<string>Harvert Plist</string>
<key>CFBundleTypeRole</key>

<string>Owner</string>
<key>LSItemContentTypes</key>

</array>
Clearly I've missed a step - but what? Thank you for any help that you can
provide.
