I have already gone through the following links : Double click document file in Mac OS X to open Java application
Also I have mentioned the following steps to resolve my problem :
Firstly, I modified my Info.plist to add the two keys :
- CFBundleDocumentTypes: Lets OS X know the type of documents that can be opened by the app
- UTExportedTypeDeclarations: Tells OS X about custom document type specific to this app, which in this case is .example files
I am using Java FX maven plugin to build the app which requires a deploy folder to place the customised icons and the plist file.I place the plist in this folder so that when it tries to build the app , it picks up the plist from this location and places it in the Contents folder of the app.
It does that , but when I run my app and try to open .qi extension files with my app , nothing happens.I click on the file , but it doesnt perform any action.
Please help me and let me know if I am missing out something.
