Getting an application's creator code

Hi,

I'm trying to get the creator code of an application selected by the user. The application is chosen via an open panel, so I have its path, and I use NSFileManager's fileAttributesAtPath method to get the file's attributes.

However, when the application is a bundle, these attributes don't have the NSFileHFSCreatorCode. I guess I could get the CFBundleSignature from its info.plist file, but I wonder if there's a more direct way that I miss.

Thanks for any help or pointer!

Philippe
