How to use canOpenURL in mac OS application?

Question

I had a function to check if chrome could be open an url. In iOS I had:

// is chrome installed??
    if ([[UIApplication sharedApplication] canOpenURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"googlechrome://"]])
    {
     ...
     }

But now in my app to Mac OS, I can't use this, because is undeclared function with NSWorkspace.

if ([[NSWorkspace sharedWorkspace] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"googlechrome://"]])
    {
     ...
     }

So, how can use canOpenURL?

Answer 1

Use NSWorkspace's fullPathForApplication to get an application's bundle path. If that method returns nil, the app is not installed.
