Dave, I may not have fully grasped what you're doing, but is it not a case of amending the app's plist (adding a "CFBundleURLTypes" element as described in the link), and then creating a an appleEvent handler in your app? (see dictionary entry for AppleEvent).

You could amend the Revolution App's pList temporarily to test in the IDE, I'd have thought...

Best,

Mark

Hi All,

This is a Mac only question!

Is it possible to register a URL Hander for an Application built using RunRev?

Please see:

http://www.cocoadev.com/index.pl?HowToRegisterURLHandler

Which describes (sort of) how to do it for a regular Cocoa Application.

Some specific questions are:

Will this work in the IDE?

On a Standalone, how would I get the URL string in order to find out what to do?

To give a bit of background to this, I have an app that "polls" the server every 5 seconds or so to see if there is updated data available. This has worked ok up to now, but the server team are worried that it will kill the server if there are many Clients polling. On the Windows application (written in RealBasic) they have handled this, I need to do something similar for the Mac version.

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated since I'm not really sure on where to start!

All the Best
Dave
