Info.plist

What's all this info.plist stuff all about?

plist ===> Property list...a key/value list.

Well it kind of describes some basic things about your iPhone/iPodTouch app:

  • application icon
  • capabilities used: networking
  • style of status bar
  • how the screen should be presented (portrait or landscape)
  • other system requirements
While it seems info.plist files are actually xml files you can use the XCode plist editor to modify as desired.
Here is an example from one of the sample modules

CFBundleDevelopmentRegion
en
CFBundleDisplayName
SimpleTableView
CFBundleExecutable
${EXECUTABLE_NAME}
CFBundleIconFile
CFBundleIdentifier
com.yourcompany.${PRODUCT_NAME:identifier}
CFBundleInfoDictionaryVersion
6.0
CFBundleName
${PRODUCT_NAME}
CFBundlePackageType
APPL
CFBundleSignature
????
CFBundleVersion
1.8
LSRequiresIPhoneOS
NSMainNibFile
MainWindow
