How to save content of a file into via defaults in such a way that they are handled as -data type?
Something like (just a naive idea, might not direct to the right approach):
% FILEDATA=... # read abc.xyz into a variable
% defaults write mydomain mykey -data "$FILEDATA" # save into user data
I. e., when I call defaults read on that key I get:
% defaults read mydomain mykey
{length = 400, bytes = 0xdcf2dbbb cb4343d7 ec4324ae 1234de18 ... 289f4567 ec4324ae }
Later in an obj-c app, the data are read using:
NSUserDefaults *userDefaults = [NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults];
NSData *data = [userDefaults dataForKey:@"mykey"];
Hi,I am creating a plug-in written in a combination of Objective-C and Swift. As such, the bundle contains the following structure:/Contents/Frameworks/libswiftCore.dylib (and few other Swift's dylib files)/Contents/Info.plist/Contents/MacOS/MainProductBinary/Contents/Resources/ - contains pdfs, nibs etc.1. I've codesigned and notarized each *.dylib file individually2. I've codesigned and notarized the bundle as a whole3. I've packed the bundle and transfered via web (so it becomes quarantined) to a fresh Catalina virtual machime4. I've installed the third-party host application for which the our product is a plug-in onto the Catalina virtual machine5. I've placed the plug-in into a folder where the host application expects itWhen I start the host application, Gatekeeper complaines that it cannot check the bundle for malvare.I manually assess the *.dylib files using a Terminal using the commands bellow:for filename in MyPlugin.bundle/Contents/Frameworks/*.dylib; do
spctl --assess --verbose=4 --type install "$filename"
doneAfter running these commands, Gatekeeper becomes satisfied and allows the plug-in to run when I start the host application.However, I'm not a supporter of an idea to force users to run these commands before installing the plug-in.Additional notes:- Running spctl --assess --type install on the whole bundle before manually assessing the *.dylib files reports "rejected". However, running the same command after manually assessing the *.dylib files reports "accepted".What should I do to make Gatekeeper satisfied without the need to run these commands?

I am creating a plug-in package written in objc/swift to a third-party macOS app (both are distributed outside of the App Store).1. I managed to get the package signed up with a Developer ID Application certificate and have it timestampted.codesign -dv --verbose=4reportsAuthority=Developer ID Application: ()
Timestamp=andcodesign --verify --deep --strict --verbose=2reports "--validated" on each swift library (the main plug-in executable is not listed) and ends the output with--prepared:<bundled swift libraries>
--validated:<bundled swift libraries>
valid on disk
satisfies its Designated Requirement2. I have zipped the package, sent it to notarization and got an e-mail that the notarization succeeeded.xcrun altool --notarization-history 0reports success 0 Package Approved3. However, if I try to assess the package via a sctl tool, it reports Rejected.spctl --assess --verbose=4 --type installreports: rejected
source=Unnotarized Developer IDAny ideas what is wrong / how to fix it?macOS 10.14.6Xcode 11.3.1

Hi,I am missing details about how the Apple Developer Program subscription works.How is the Apple Developer Program bound to an Apple Account? Its 1:1 or indirect (1:n, n:1, n:n)?For example, if I would like to subscribe two entities to the Apple Developer Program, can i use the same Apple Account or do I need to use a separate Apple Account for each of the subscription?Who can manage the Apple Developer Program subscription? Only the Apple Account which originally purchased it or I can give appropriate permissions to additional accounts as well? What if I move out from that entity and I need to transfer/pass the subscription to someone else?Thanks.
