Re: Setting default application for URL scheme

I'd like to set the application that should be run when a URL with a

_LSSetDefaultSchemeHandlerURL, but I'd rather not go with an
undocumented API if it can be avoided. Is there a Cocoa API or
something for this that I haven't been able to find? Or would I be
better off using the Cocoa APIs to modify the launch services database
directly?


There is no Cocoa API. The only supported way of doing this is to use LSSetDefaultHandlerForURLScheme(), which requires Tiger or later. Prior to Tiger, you had to use Internet Config to do that.
