Spotlight not indexing files


  • Subject: Spotlight not indexing files
  • From: Shoaib Hannani <email@hidden>

I've written a Spotlight plugin for my application but none of my application files get indexed by Spotlight.

I have to MANUALLY run mdimport on my application files before Spotlight can see them. The fact that mdimport does the trick tells me that my plugin is working.

But I don't understand why I have run mdimport manually to get it to work.

Metadata files created by my application are written to ~/Library/ Caches/Metadata/myApp directory.

There must be something I'm not doing right. Any ideas?
