Re: How do I get my Plugin Bundle

QLPreviewRequestGetGeneratorBundle() and QLThumbnailRequestGetGeneratorBundle() are exactly what you are looking for :-)

Sorry, I am new to Objective C and programming on the Mac, so this may be a dumb question, but:

I've created my first QL plugin and it works great. What I would like to do is have some configuration in my info.plist that I can use at runtime. What I can't figure out how to do is get the bundle for my plugin. (Is there another way to get the info from info.plist other than from a bundle?)

I know that you can get the bundle from the bundle id. But I want to avoid hard-coding the bundle id into my C code. (Imagine writing a C plugin that simply invoked a given script to generate the plugin text. In that case I might want to create 20 different plugins using the same compiled plugin library, but just change the script file name, supported file types and bundle id in the info.plist).

Is there a way to either "get my plugin bundle" when you are called to generate the QLPreview (or even earlier when your plugin is generated). Or, somehow get my plugin id (maybe by using the file type to look it up in a registry)?

Thanks for your help!
