LSItemInfoFlags, returned by LSCopyItemInfoForRef() when the queried item is an application, contains several undocumented flags (i.e. flags which are NOT documented in LSInfo.h nor in the Launch Services Reference).


E.g. iTunes.app has (among well documented flags) also: 0x6804000.

Where can I find the meaning of these flags?

10.5.6; Documentation updated on 19.3.2009.

If they are not documented (neither in the doc, nor in headers), they are not part of the public interface.

Here some info for people interested in forbidden fruits: 0x00002000 single-file app 0x00004000 packaged app 0x00080000 is document of some app 0x02000000 ppc 0x04000000 i386 0x08000000 ppc64 0x10000000 x86_64

If someone has any ideas about these LSItemInfoFlags, I would appreciate it very much:
0x00200000 ?
0x00400000 ?
0x00800000 ?

lsregister -dump give a list of all registred applications with corresponding flags (lsregister is a tool in the LaunchServices Framework).


Maybe it may help you.

Some flags you do not list, but that are present in a ls register dump:

apple-internal, relative-icon-path, scriptable, launch-disabled, handles-file-url, services, requires-native, can-set-extension-hidden, display-name, ui-element , trash, unsupported-format, …

Good luck.
