Re: Creating an iTunes Plug-in

I need to create a non visual iTunes plugin and I don't see in Xcode where
to setup the project.


Also, is there an SDK, I don't see anything but a "visual iTunes SDK" on
developer.apple.com.

I believe that's your lot as far as iTunes plugins go. Other options:

- iTunes has a fairly extensive, if slightly quirky, Apple event interface; e.g. see <http://dougscripts.com> for a whole load of iTunes-related AppleScripts. Best option for controlling iTunes from ObjC is objc-appscript (see my sig. for links); there's also Leopard's Scripting Bridge, but it has some compatibility problems.

- iTunes puts out track change notifications, which you can listen for via NSDistributedNotificationCenter. Get yourself a copy of Notification Watcher <http://www.tildesoft.com/Programs.html> to examine further.
