Hi Jordan,
what do you mean by metadata? what are you items?
Metadata is 'Data about data', see it like supplementary information.

So now i suppose you're talking about files metadata, the one used by spotlight.

You may search, in Xcode Documentation, for 'spotlight', and found
several articles that might be of interest to you.
Among them, i think the one titled 'Spotlight Query Programming Guide' is what you're looking for.
(you canf ind this on the web too)


Regards.

Hi everyone,

As a beginning Cocoa developer I have a question which is probably glaringly simple, although I haven't managed to figure it out.

I'm building an app which displays and has the ability to edit certain item metadata for different file-formats, yet I've had trouble implementing the main functionality. How would I go about displaying item metadata in an NSTextField with the ability to edit the text and have changes permanently made. Would I have to implement special permissions? Would I have to implement an alternate method for allowing the editing of multiple file formats?

Thanks for your help,
