How can I accept directory drops to my app icon?

I would like to accept directories with arbitrary names dropped onto my application icon, in the Dock and elsewhere.

I tried many things, especially in the Info.plist file, but no chance. The icon never highlights in the dock. I can force it by holding down Cmd-Option, and then the open method in my app delegate gets invoked, but that is of course not good enough for end-users.


What do I have to do to accomplish this?


-Marc
