I been searching for quite a while and reading the source code for DockScript by still no luck. Can anyone tell me how to make an Cocoa app launch when a file is drag 'n droped on it's icon?
Well, it does so by default -- if the drop is permitted. The Dock decides if the drop is permitted based on the document types that the application claims to handle in its Info.plist file.

By the way, you can force the Dock to accept the drop, regardless of the claimed document types, by holding down Command and Option.
