Hello...

Do you have the "LSTypeIsPackage" key included (and set to TRUE) in the document type dictionary in the CFBundleDocumentTypes in your application's Info.plist file?

Hope that helps,

Louis

Hi,

I've got an application that uses document packages to store data, and
that's all working fine except if I try to duplicate the files in the Finder
(selecting the icon and cmd-D'ing). In that case, the file "Myfile.ext"
becomes "Myfile.ext copy" and displays as a folder.

Everything else--saving, loading, copying to other directories, etc. is
working fine. I have a PkgInfo file inside the Contents folder for my
document, but is there something else I need to do to tell the Finder to
duplicate the document as a package and not a folder?

I've looked, but I'm not seeing anything archived about this problem, which
makes me think I missed something simple...

Thanks,

- Dave
