Is there a way to update LS database programmatically? I have a service
application with extension '.service' that sits in Library/Services. The
application defines a document type with extension '.foo' with its own
icon and claims its viewer role as 'None'. What I want is that all
documents with .foo to have that icon. However, Finder ignores my
service application while building its LS database and all documents
.foo are shown with generic document icon. I can force Finder to
recognize those files and show the correct icon by using "Open with"
dialog and pointing Finder to my service application. I am looking for a
way to do that programmaticaly, i.e., from my service app and not from
Finder.
Thank you
