macos: find all installed applications capable of editing (eg) .jpg files
Hi, I think the title says it: my application needs to obtain a list of all applications that are configured as potential editors of a certain file type, for example jpeg or tiff. I've found LSCopyAllRoleHandlersForContentType which appears to do what I need, but it is deprecated since macos 12.0. What's the modern alternative? My app is built in c++ with some objective-c. Thanks Joost
