@mjtsai That would be unexpected. Radar please. With a test project would be good.

@grynspan Radar 28500991.

@mjtsai The value of `info` is undefined on error return, and you didn't zero it. It's just garbage.

@grynspan My actual code checks that there was no error, and the example that I sent logs that the error was 0.

@mjtsai The bug would be that it's returning noErr instead of fnfErr, I suppose. :)

@grynspan OK.

@mjtsai That said, that API is deprecated. Please use NSURLIsApplicationKey instead.

@mjtsai kLSItemInfoIsApplication is deprecated on 10.12

@etresoft Yes, but that doesn't mean it should break.

@mjtsai It means Apple messed with it. You can keep using it for older targets, but assume it is now broken unless testing says otherwise.

@mjtsai Looks like 80% of Launch Services is deprecated. I just parse the output of command-line tools that Apple says should not be parsed.

@etresoft @mjtsai Deprecated-with-replacements! Please don't parse tool output.

@grynspan What a comedian! So what’s it worth to you to make my app, and its million-odd users, stop parsing tool output?

@etresoft I am not allowed to bribe you. Sorry. Them's the rules.

@etresoft But if you find that you need info not available by supported API, an enhancement request via Radar is always appreciated.

@grynspan OK. Your bit-bucket is now 2 RDARs closer to full. I can’t wait to see those new APIs that will replace launchctl and lsregister.

@etresoft Well launchctl isn't part of Launch Services. Can't help you there. Ask @jauricchio. As for the other, got a number?
