Re: How to get all the path of an application present on the disk

I don't have the code at hand, but you could run a NSMetadataQuery and search for kMDItemCFBundleIdentifier==abc.xyz. Best, Tim Am 20.03.2013 um 13:08 schrieb anni saini : > Hi, > > I'm tried to find out all the locations where my app is present on the disk. > Is there any Cocoa API which ret

Yes, this should be possible, have a look at the NSTextFinder class and especially at the NSTextFinderClient protocol. Tim Am 18.06.2012 um 20:03 schrieb ecir hana: > Hello, > > Since Lion NSTextView has this very nice feature - when searching for a > text as a user it also highlights all the

Re: Sandoxing: Creating a security-scoped bookmark for contents of a user-specified directory.

Actually, this should be quite possible by using document-scoped bookmarks. If Apple's documentation doesn't help you, you could have a look at the sample project linked here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10259692/app-sandbox-document-scoped-bookmark-not-resolving-not-returning-any-error/1

Re: Exclude or Negate NSComparisonPredicate

I use this code to search for something *not* containing someString with NSMetadataquery: predicate = [NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:@"NOT kMDItemFSName LIKE '%@'", someString]; As NSMetadataQuery only uses a subset of the NSPredicate syntax, I doubt whether using NSCompoundPredicate or some

Re: Get the RSS Feed of a site

You should perhaps load the start page of evey lab in a webview, then parse the html (or xml) information for rss links ( .. href="..") and follow the URL contained in the href part. It should be possible to get the feed content by using NSXMLParser on this URL. Tim -- http://www.timschroeder.n

Re: Determine sandbox/entitlements at runtime?

Questioning [[[NSProcessInfo] processInfo] environment] should work to check whether sandboxing is enabled or not, but not for checking entitlements. As use of the Scripting Bridge will be covered by a temporary entitlement at best, better don't rely on scripting at all. Tim http://www.timsch

Re: Sandboxing and file references

I don't think that the access rights are permanent, the only way to enable sandboxing for this kind of app would be to use a temporary exception entitlement giving your app access to the whole file system (not sure if Apple will like that for the Mac App Store, though). You can copy your applic

Lorenzo, at least with Thunderbird I have found it impossible to communicate with from a Cocoa app. Mail.app, Entourage, Outlook 2011 and Postbox should work with AppleScript which you can address from within your app with the NSAppleScript class. In principle, you just need to give an instance
