Overview

Uniform Type Identifiers (or UTIs) are strings which uniquely identify abstract types. They can be used to describe a file format or an in-memory data type, but can also be used to describe the type of other sorts of entities, such as directories, volumes, or packages.

Type declarations appear in bundle property lists and tell the system several things about a type. Detailed information about the format and declaration of a UTI can be found in Uniform Type Identifiers Overview. A few key concepts that are found in the declaration include:

Conformance. Conformance relationships establish a multiple inheritance hierarchy between types. Type property values may be inherited at runtime according to the conformance relationships for each type. When a type's declaration does not include a value for particular type property, then the type's supertypes are searched for a value. Supertypes are searched depth-first, in the order given in the type declaration. This is the only way in which the declared order of the supertypes is significant.
Tags. A tag is a string which indicates the definition of the type in some other type identification mechanism, such as a filename extension or MIME type. The namespace of the other type identification mechanism is known as its class. Classes are themselves identified by uniform type identifiers so that the set of valid tag classes is easily extended in the future.
Type declarations may include several other properties: a localizable user description of the type, the name of an icon resource in the declaring bundle, a reference URL identifying technical documentation about the type itself, and a version number, which can be incremented as a type evolves. All of these properties are optional.

Functions

UTTypeConformsTo

Returns whether a uniform type identifier conforms to another uniform type identifier.

Boolean UTTypeConformsTo(
   CFStringRef   inUTI,
   CFStringRef   inConformsToUTI);

Parameters

inUTI: A uniform type identifier to compare.
inConformsToUTI: The uniform type identifier to compare it to.

Return Value

Returns true if the uniform type identifier is equal to or conforms to the second type.

Availability

Available in iOS 3.0 and later.

UTType.h

UTTypeCopyDeclaration

Returns a uniform type’s declaration.

CFDictionaryRef UTTypeCopyDeclaration(CFStringRef inUTI);

Parameters

inUTI: A uniform type identifier.

Return Value

A dictionary that contains the uniform type’s declaration, or NULL if no declaration for that type can be found.

Discussion

A uniform type identifier is declared in a bundle’s information property list (info.plist). This function extracts and returns a dictionary that contains the complete declaration of the uniform type identifier. This is useful when your application needs to access properties that does not have a built-in accessor function. For more information on the dictionary format, see Uniform Type Identifiers Overview.

UTType.h

UTTypeCopyDeclaringBundleURL

Returns the location of a bundle containing the declaration for a type.

CFURLRef UTTypeCopyDeclaringBundleURL(CFStringRef inUTI);

Parameters

inUTI: A uniform type identifier.

Return Value

A URL that points to the bundle that holds the uniform type identifier’s declaration, or NULL if a bundle that holds the declaration cannot be located.

Availability

Available in iOS 3.0 and later.

Declared In

UTType.h

UTTypeCopyDescription

Returns the localized, user-readable type description string associated with a uniform type identifier.

CFStringRef UTTypeCopyDescription(CFStringRef inUTI);

Parameters

inUTI: A uniform type identifier.

Return Value

A localized string describing the type, or NULL if no type description is available.

Discussion

The localized string that describes the uniform type is found in the type’s declaration.

UTTypeCopyPreferredTagWithClass

Translates a uniform type identifier to a list of tags in a different type classification method.

CFStringRef UTTypeCopyPreferredTagWithClass(
   CFStringRef   inUTI,
   CFStringRef   inTagClass);

Parameters

inUTI: The uniform type identifier to convert.
inTagClass: The class of the tags you want to return. For more information, see “Type Tag Classes”.

Return Value

An array of tags (as CFStrings), or NULL if there was no translation available to convert the uniform type identifier to the specified class.

Discussion

If the type declaration included more than one tag with the specified class, the first tag in the declared tag array is the preferred tag.

UTTypeCreateAllIdentifiersForTag

Creates an array of all uniform type identifiers for the type indicated by the specified tag.

CFArrayRef UTTypeCreateAllIdentifiersForTag(
   CFStringRef   inTagClass,
   CFStringRef   inTag,
   CFStringRef   inConformingToUTI);

Parameters

inTagClass: The class of the inTag parameter. For more information, see “Type Tag Classes”.
inTag: The tag to translate into a uniform type identifier.
inConformingToUTI: If not nil, all returned uniform type identifiers must conform to this parameter.

Return Value

An array of uniform type identifiers, or NULL if inTagClass is not a known tag class

Discussion

This function is used to translate a type declared using another declaration mechanism (for example, MIME types) into a uniform type identifier. This function searches all UTI declarations for a matching translation and returns all possible results. If a conforming parameter is assigned, the search is reduced to the subset of type identifiers that conform to that type.

If no result is found, this function creates a dynamic type beginning with the dyn prefix.

Availability

Available in iOS 3.0 and later.

Declared In

UTType.h

UTTypeCreatePreferredIdentifierForTag

Creates a uniform type identifier for the type indicated by the specified tag.

CFStringRef UTTypeCreatePreferredIdentifierForTag(
   CFStringRef   inTagClass,
   CFStringRef   inTag,
   CFStringRef   inConformingToUTI);

Parameters

inTagClass: The class of the inTag parameter. For more information, see “Type Tag Classes”.
inTag: The tag to translate into a uniform type identifier.
inConformingToUTI: If not NULL, the returned uniform type identifier must conform to this parameter.

Return Value

A new CFStringRef containing a uniform type identifier, or NULL if inTagClass is not a known tag class

Discussion

This function is used to translate a type declared using another declaration mechanism (for example, MIME types) into a uniform type identifier. This function searches all UTI declarations for a matching translation. If a conforming parameter is assigned, the search is reduced to the subset of type identifiers that conform to that type.

If there is more than one possible UTI for the specified tag, the UTI that will be returned is undefined. See UTTypeCreateAllIdentifiersForTag if you need to see all search results.

If no result is found, this function creates a dynamic type beginning with the dyn prefix. This allows you to pass the UTI around and convert it back to the original tag.

UTTypeEqual

Returns whether two uniform type identifiers are equal.

Boolean UTTypeEqual(
   CFStringRef   inUTI1,
   CFStringRef   inUTI2);

Parameters

inUTI1: A uniform type identifier.
inUTI2: The uniform type identifier to compare it to.

Return Value

Returns true if the two uniform type identifiers are equivalent.

Discussion

If one or both of the identifiers is a dynamic identifier, then the types are equal if either identifier's tag specification is a subset of the other identifier's tag specification.
