Developer Tools or not Developer Tools?
Most of the commands presented here are included in the standard
install of Mac OS X. However some commands are installed only if
you install the Developer Tools: make sure to test your script on a
machine without the Developer Tools installed if you expect to
distribute it.
There is a solution and another problem here. My solution to this
problem was to simply copy "SetFile" into the /Contents/Resources/
folder of my application package. I can send my 'do shell script'
command to that file instead of the Developer/Tools/ copy and I don't
care if some user has not installed Developer Tools. Later I decided
to use Mod Date instead of Creation Date and removed this command
from my application since I no longer needed it.
Which brings up another problem. Had I kept SetFile in my
application, I would have needed to satisfy some license requirements
for redistribution. The SetFile man page shows "BSD General Commands
Manual" on the first line and "Mac OS X" on the last line. I went
from the bsd.org web page to an Apple web page, but found nothing
claiming to be THE license document for SetFile. I am also having a
similar problem with a DarwinPorts command.
If anyone knows more about this, I would like to know.
