- Thread-topic: Finder context menu behavior
I'm trying to figure out what logic is being used to determine when the
version number is displayed along with the application name and icon in the
Finder Context Menu, 'Open With'. Sometimes for a given application listed
like Word, Xcode, .etc. you will see a version number in parenthesis,
(3.0.2). Select a different file, right click it and select 'Open With' and
the same application listed will not have it's version number. I'm using
LSCopyApplicationURLsForURL to get the list of applications,
LSCopyDisplayNameForURL to get the display name(Note: This api returns the
correct name(i.e. the one finder/spotlight displays) and can be different
than the one in the Info.plist) and using the key CFBundleShortVersionString
to obtain the version number.
The question is what determines when to show the version number. Anyone
have insight on this? Hopefully my explanation is clear enough.
Thanks,
Tony Romano
