SwiftDefaultApps overview
This Preference pane is chiefly intended to be a modern replacement for the amazing RCDefaultApp developed way back when by Carl Lindberg, which stopped working in 10.12 due to deprecation of ObjC Garbage collection. Additionally, I guess it was a good way to teach myself Swift.
Installing & Uninstalling
- To install, double click on the .prefpane, and you will be prompted to install it.
- To uninstall, simply Ctrl+Click on the Prefpane icon and remove it, or move the .prefpane file to the Trash.
What’s new in version 2.0.1
Version 2.0.1:
Added
- Signed prefpane, CLI and Dummy apps.
- Both the prefpane and the CLI version will now automatically try to locate ThisAppDoesNothing.app if it does not appear registered with launch services.
Changed
- SwiftCLI is now built and linked as a static library instead of a framework.
- Updated to Swift 5
- The content array is now populated by overriding didSelect() instead of relying on an arbitrary sleep timer.
- Changed the CLI app's name from lsreg to swda.
- Messages in both the CLI and Preference Pane are now a bit more verbose.
- Under the hood, folded most of the app's feedback to the user into a single displayAlert() function.
Fixed
- Updated the Swift Package Manager manifest to version 5.
- Updated the SynchronizedArray code and corrected the attribution; Before, I had inadvertently credited an unrelated project with the same name.
- Various small optimizations, fixes and text corrections.
