My app is registered to handle a private URL scheme, with which it receives messages from web browser bookmarklets. If I type either this:
javascript:document.location.href='myScheme://myHost';
or this
myScheme://myHost
into Safari's address bar and hit 'return', my app gets the message.
I want to be able to send the same message from Cocoa code running in another app. I realize that other methods of interapplication communication are available, but since the receiving end is already done in this case, I can minimize code and test cases by using this same private URL.
I tried The Obvious:
NSURL* url = [NSURL URLWithString:@"myScheme://myHost"] ;
NSLog(@"443: url = %@", url) ;
NSURLRequest* req = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:url
cachePolicy:NSURLRequestReloadIgnoringCacheData
timeoutInterval:15.0] ;
NSError* error = nil ;
[NSURLConnection sendSynchronousRequest:req
returningResponse:NULL
error:&error] ;
NSLog(@"1950: error = %@", error) ;
Result:
443: url = myScheme://myHost
1950: error = Error Domain=NSURLErrorDomain Code=-1002 UserInfo=0x1001289d0 "unsupported URL"
Underlying Error=(Error Domain=kCFErrorDomainCFNetwork Code=-1002 UserInfo=0x100128800 "unsupported URL")
Same result if I replace myHost with myHost.me.com.
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks,
Jerry Krinock
