There is this way, but it uses a private function call:

NSArray *apps = nil;

LSInit(1);
_LSCopyAllApplicationURLs(&apps);

Hi All:

Is there a way using Cocoa, to get a list of all applications that a user has
installed on a Mac OSX ?
I am trying to implement something similar to the old MacOS 9 "Open with
Application" dialog box, which would display a list of all available
applications.

Pls note:- I don't want to launch the finder application.

Thanks.

with rgds,

rashmi.
