I have an option in my app to set the URL Handler for smb or switch it back to Finder. But using my code below it always give me a -10819 error. Which is a generic kLSNotRegisteredErr, even those the documentation shows "Not currently used."
func setDefaultHandler(bundleID: String) {
DebugLogger.shared.log("Attempting to set \(bundleID) as default handler for SMB URLs")
// Post Sonoma macOS requires user interaction to change default handlers
// We'll register our app and then guide the user to System Settings
// For our app, register it with Launch Services
if bundleID != "com.apple.finder" {
if let appBundleURL = Bundle.main.bundleURL as CFURL? {
let registerResult = LSRegisterURL(appBundleURL, true)
DebugLogger.shared.log("LSRegisterURL result: [\(appBundleURL)]\(registerResult)")
}
}
// Check current handler using modern API
let testSMBURL = URL(string: "smb://example.com")!
if let handlerURL = NSWorkspace.shared.urlForApplication(toOpen: testSMBURL) {
DebugLogger.shared.log("Current default handler is: \(handlerURL)")
// Try to get the bundle ID from the URL
var currentHandlerBundleID = ""
if let bundle = Bundle(url: handlerURL) {
if let handlerBundleID = bundle.bundleIdentifier {
currentHandlerBundleID = handlerBundleID
DebugLogger.shared.log("Current default handler bundle ID: \(handlerBundleID)")
}
}
// Check if the current handler is already what we want
let alreadySet = currentHandlerBundleID == bundleID
DebugLogger.shared.log("Handler is already set correctly: \(alreadySet)")
if alreadySet {
let alert = NSAlert()
alert.messageText = "Default Handler Status"
alert.informativeText = "\(bundleID == "com.apple.finder" ? "Finder" : "LGN") is already set as the default handler for SMB URLs."
alert.addButton(withTitle: "OK")
alert.runModal()
} else {
// Guide the user to System Settings to change the handler
promptToSetDefaultHandler(bundleID == "com.apple.finder" ? "Finder" : "LGN")
}
} else {
DebugLogger.shared.log("Could not determine current handler")
promptToSetDefaultHandler(bundleID == "com.apple.finder" ? "Finder" : "LGN")
}
}
