[Q] creating document packages?


  • Subject: [Q] creating document packages?

I have a couple of [potentially newbie] questions related to creating document packages programmatically. I'm still coming up to speed on Cocoa, so be kind to me. :-)

1. From my reading, if my app reads/writes document packages instead of single-file documents, I need to implement -fileWrapperRepresentationOfType:type: and -loadFileWrapperRepresentation:ofType:. Is this correct, and if so, do I need to do anything more than to set LSTypeIsPackage=true in the document array in my info.plist?

2. What is the correct way to set the "directory=package" file attribute for the root NSFileWrapper representing the package directory?

3. Off-topic, but the New and Open menu items are disabled in my app. My document class's -init method is being called so I at least know that the info.plist appears to be set up correctly. Is there anything I can do - log info, whatever - that can provide some clues? Work is still in-progress so it's entirely possible that I've failed to override one of the required methods, but it'd be nice to figure out what... :-)

Thanks,

steve
