I am making a Mac drag-and-drop applet using py2app.
The resulting application runs, and I can drag files onto the
application's icon in Finder, but I cannot drag files onto the
application's icon in the Dock.
The application processes plain text files. The property list is as
follows (I reluctantly decided not to list allowed file suffixes because
the appropriate keyword is deprecated for 10.5):
plist = dict(
CFBundleName = appName,
CFBundleExecutable = appName,
CFBundleShortVersionString = versStr,
CFBundleGetInfoString = "%s %s" % (appName, versStr),
CFBundleDocumentTypes = [
dict(
CFBundleTypeName = "TEXT",
CFBundleTypeRole = "Viewer",
LSItemContentTypes = [
"public.plain-text",
"public.text",
"public.data",
],
),
],
)
and when I look at the final info.plist and compare it to the plist from
other applications I don't see anything glaringly different (but I'm not
an expert on application proper lists).
Any idea what's going on? It's a serious limitation not to be able to
drag file onto the dock icon.
