I'm using Xcode to automatically build up all products for a client I work
for and then to package them within .dmg files (instead of the manual
process presently), but as it uses a custom icon for .dmg (image on desktop
when mounted) and then also an image for the background of the mounted .dmg
when opened. I'm wondering if there any script tools (i.e. via bash/ csh)
available as I cannot find any so far.


Any idea's anyone ? (if not anybody know if there are API's for setting a
folder's finder picture ?, last time I checked it wasn't even Apple
Scriptable)

As a workaround, you may perhaps create an empty sparse image, and setup the disque image from the finder. You may also create some folders you need inside with custom images.


In your shell script, just copy the template disk image, mount the copy, copy the files inside, unmount the copy and then convert the image to a readonly format. I don't know if it will work, but it seems it will.
