The title says it all...
I want to tell Safari to go to a particular URL.
If Safari is not opened, then my app will tell the Finder to open it,
and
then go to the specified URL.
As joar noted, the preferred technique is to send openURL: to the
default NSWorkspace. A couple of things worth noting:
a) This isn't going to go to Safari. It's going to go to whatever app
is configured to handle URLs of the passed scheme on the user's
machine. For HTTP that's Safari by default, but if you _need_ Safari
this isn't reliable.
b) Your app doesn't need to make any effort to launch the app.
If you, for some strange reason, require the use of Safari in
particular you can use the NSWorkspace message:
openURLs:withAppBundleIdentifier:options:
additionalEventParamDescriptor:launchIdentifiers:
That said, if the user has a different default browser and it does not
make a difference to you application which browser is used then Joar's
suggestion is almost certainly better.
