How to choose .app files in the FileOpenChooser dialog?

Hi,
I am working on a plugin and want to allow the user to browse through the system to choose an .app (Application) file on Mac.
Currently I'm using OpenDialog() function of SDKFileOpenChooser dialog for this. It's working correctly on Windows but on Mac, when the dialog opens up, .app file appears to be disabled (Not selectable).
Please tell me what filter should I add so that one can choose files with extension .app.

I am using SDKFileOpenChooser dialog. To add filter, we either need TypeInfoID for that file or FileType and extension.
Using this code, I found out the typeInfoID for .app files. It came out to be 291.
TypeInfoID tpID = FileTypeRegistry::GetFileTypeInfoIDForFile(appIDFile);
Then I tried to add filters in both ways, it's still appear to be disabled (not selectable). Thus, not allwoing to choose .app files.
SDKFileOpenChooser openChooser;
            FileTypeInfo currentFiletypeInfo = FileTypeRegistry::GetCurrentFileTypeInfo(291);
            openChooser.AddFilter(currentFiletypeInfo.GetFileType(), currentFiletypeInfo.GetFileExtension(), "App_Filter");
                                                                           or
            openChooser.AddFilter(291, "App_Filter");
openChooser.ShowDialog();
Can anyone please help me.

  • How to choose App-V 5 Sequencing "Primary Virtual Application Directory"?

    Hi,
    How to choose App-V 5 Sequencing "Primary Virtual Application Directory"?
    Should I use c:\program files\MyAppR1 or just c:\program files or c:\Anything, dose it matter?
    /SaiTech

    Nice to know. Se before sequencing I have to know the exact folder structure of installable application, in what directory it would be installed by default?
    Yes. Presumably you have a good understanding of the application before sequencing it. This generally means going through an installation of the application and understanding the layout on disk, what impact the app has on the user profile etc, before sequencing.

  • How to play Swf files on the iPad??

    Just as the title sated, how to play sef files on the iPad, since the iPad lack of flash support, and I don't find any program to handle with the swf files to playing on my iPad

    Depending on what sites you are trying to access, you might find that some of them (probably more so if they are news sites) have their own apps in the App Store which might let you get some of the content that you want (and there is the built-in YouTube app). Also there are browsers such as Skyfire which 'work' on some sites - but judging by the reviews not all sites. If you want to play flash games then you are out of luck if you want to play on-line (unless something like the iSwiffter app work with it), but again some of them have app versions in the store.

  • I have 2 iCloud accounts. Can I delete one account so I can make use of additional space I purchased for the secondary account? Also iPhoto seems to only connect to the primary account? How do I send files to the secondary account?

    I have 2 iCloud accounts. Can I delete one account so I can make use of additional space I purchased for the secondary account? Also iPhoto seems to only connect to the primary account? How do I send files to the secondary account?

    Both accounts are completely independent from each other. In order to use the space that you have purchased for your secondary account, you must change it to become your primary account. Yes, as you said, services like photo stream only work with the primary account. Unfortunately, there is no comfortable way to just transfer data from one account to another one, but you can do it via a third party application e.g. via Dropbox: e.g. for photos: photos stored with your current primary account > manual transfer to dropbox > after you made your secondary account to the primary account,  transfer the photos back to your new primary account etc.

    Move items you don't need on it, such as the iTunes and iPhoto libraries, to another drive, verify they work in the new location, and then delete them from the internal drive. If you don't need something at all, drag it to the Trash and empty it.

  • How to import multiple files to the frame area?

    How do I import multiple files to create animated GIF's. I
    know how to import multiple files into the Fireworks, but if I'm
    trying to create an animated gif that has alot of files, How do I
    get them into the frames area. It is really a pain importing each
    and every file one at a time frame by frame

    merry1
    after you bring in all your images to the canvas, select all
    and in the
    Frames Options drop down, select Distribute to Frames.
    You can bring multiple images onto the canvas by copy and
    pasting from
    the folder(s) where they exist.

  • I have a G4 Quicksilver that no longer works, but the hd may still be good. How can I get files off the G4 hd and onto my new iMac?

    I have a G4 Quicksilver 2001 that no longer works, but the hd may still be good. How can I get files off the G4 hd and onto my new late 2013 iMac?

    Also, how do I boot the G4 into FireWire Target Disk mode?
    First, the G4 must be able to start to use FWTDM. If it can start, hold the t key at boot until you get a "screensaver pattern" that looks like this:
    If the G4 is attached via a FireWire cable to a newer Mac with a FireWire port, the G4's hard drive will appear on the other Mac's desktop just as if it were any external drive. A USB cable won't work for FWTDM.
    Just wondering if the drive in my G4, which I believe may be an ATA drive will also work in an enclosure for a SATA drive?
    No. ATA (actually "PATA" or "IDE") and SATA are different interfaces. PATA external enclosures are now very hard to find. You best and least expensive option is the adaptor that BDAqua linked. One of its connectors is for PATA drives.

  • How to attach a file to the mail

    How to attach a file to the mail

    I know that this can be done when going to any PDF program and push (send as  email)
    This also can done with multiple files or even with separate pages from that PDF file (Many programs can do that, like: PDF expert, Adobe Reader, iBooks, PDF Provider, Documents, etc)
    But what if I begin to wright an email, then I wanted to attach a file (such as PDF, or word, or any file) , FOR BASIC APPLE MAIL IT IS UNAVAILABLE
    You can attach Photo or Video but not PDF or other document
    There are some email programs that can attach files to email such as my.mail (as you can see from the photo)
    But why Apple don't provide such simple service ???

    FYI,
    Don't really know if I'm adding anything useful but here it is. I use NetBeans and I simply added an images folder so now I have my package (deckofcards) and a sub package deckofcards.images.
    The image:
    back: Image {
                url: "{__DIR__}images/B.JPG",
                backgroundLoading:true
                placeholder:bind placeholder
            };works and the value of "{__DIR__}images/B.JPG" becomes
    <CARD backUrl="jar:file:/C:/Users/Bill/Documents/NetBeansProjects/DeckOfCards/dist/DeckOfCards.jar!/deckofcards/B.JPG">
      ...when I marshal. That string (backUrl) will unmarshal correctly and can be use in the url variable to display and image too.
