It was documented in the release notes for whatever OS X version added UTIs. The fileType parameter in NSDocument API is *either* a UTI *or* an old-fashioned string with an app-specific value. It depends on which form you use in your document’s plist (“Identifier” field of the document info). > $(PRODUCT_NAME:rfc1034identifier) Personally, I always replace this with an explicit string on a project that’s destined for public release. Part of it is old-fogeyism, because it annoys me that the bundle ID might change without an explicit edit. Part of it is to force it to lower case. But the main part of it is that once you’ve created an explicit app ID in the developer portal, you don’t want to have to change the bundle ID, *even if* you decide to change the product name in the Xcode project. But that’s just me. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
