Xamarin-macios: Changing App Dock name with Localized CFBundleDisplayName on Xamarin.Mac Not Working Properly

Created on 18 Nov 2019 · 22Comments · Source: xamarin/xamarin-macios

Steps to Reproduce

I coded a Xamarin.Mac app. I localized my app bundle name and bundle display name via InfoPlist.strings inside of "lproj" folders with the help of Xcode like:

InfoPlist.strings

/* 
  InfoPlist.strings
  AnkaraUniversity_Radio

  Created by Berk Babadoğan on 13.11.2019.

*/

/* Localized Bundle Display Name */
"CFBundleDisplayName" = "Ankara Üniversitesi Radyosu";
"CFBundleName" = "Ankara Üniversitesi Radyosu";

Info.plist

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">

    <array>
        <string>en</string>
        <string>tr</string>
    </array>
</dict>
</plist>

Localized bundle name is visible on menu bar now.
However, unlike Xamarin.iOS, Xamarin.Mac gets app Dock name from Assembly Name in Project options, not from "CFBundleDisplayName" , So, my app name on the dock icon could not response the localization settings, it stays unchanged.

Expected Behavior

App name on dock must reflect the localization change, macOS must show the localized app name.

Actual Behavior

My app name on the dock icon could not response the localization settings, it stays unchanged. I saw the assembly name on Dock.

FWIW: In my case (above) I was able to satisfy my need for spaces in the AssemblyName by replacing the ASCII spaces with Unicode EN SPACE (U+2000) spaces (copied and pasted from here).

Are there other localized strings in your app that are working (and just this one isn't)? Maybe your strings file is not being bundled into the app correctly.

If we know that other localization works and this doesn't it tells us different things than if no localization works.

chamons on 19 Nov 2019

Yes, I have other localized strings in app. They are just working fine except App Name (CFBundleDisplayName). Localized CFBundleDisplayName cannot override the App Dock name, the Dock shows Assembly Name everytime.

berkbb on 19 Nov 2019

I entered a temporary value like "HMMISN" to "CFBundleDisplayName" key inside Info.plist. Despite this, the application name has not changed, I still see the assembly name on the Dock. This isn't just about localization, I think, it's a general problem.

berkbb on 19 Nov 2019

Very strange, I've asked a few people on the team and here's some ideas:

Change the bundle ID and see if that forces Finder to uncache it
killall finder
Restart macOS and see if it shows up correctly

Right now, it sounds more like a macOS bug that XM, but anything is possible.

chamons on 19 Nov 2019

Yep, I think same. It is very interesting and strange. Localizing the "CFBundleDisplayName" is running and changes the Dock name if I develop native app via XCode and Swift. I will try your suggestions and write outputs to here. Thanks.

berkbb on 19 Nov 2019

Maybe xcode is running something to clear the cache. If you can figure out what it is doing (full build log?) let me know.

chamons on 19 Nov 2019

I have a full build log here for Visual Studio, I uploaded before. Maybe missed it. Is it usable ?

https://gist.github.com/berkbb/9ccc75b4f7b100b3bef8f9fbcfbd6606

I will try upload XCode log if it is helpful.

These suggestions are not fix the issue , they are ineffective :(
I have not this bug before, may it caused from macOS Catalina API's ?

berkbb on 21 Nov 2019

This line is very interesting:

RegisterWithLaunchServices /Users/berkbabadogan/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/Test_CFBundleName-bgqcgebpvvozhedwwzdtbhqjykhm/Build/Products/Debug/Test_CFBundleName.app (in target 'Test_CFBundleName' from project 'Test_CFBundleName')
    cd /Users/berkbabadogan/Desktop/Test_CFBundleName
    builtin-lsRegisterURL /Users/berkbabadogan/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/Test_CFBundleName-bgqcgebpvvozhedwwzdtbhqjykhm/Build/Products/Debug/Test_CFBundleName.app

My guess is that https://developer.apple.com/documentation/coreservices/1446350-lsregisterurl?language=objc is causing the dock to refresh itself.

I have an idea, let me hack something up for you to try.

chamons on 22 Nov 2019

After your build, before you run try running:

/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister PATH_TO_YOUR_APP_BUNDLE

And see if that changes how the dock shows your app.

If it does, we can add that as a build step for XM apps.

Should I apply it after Visual Studio build ?

berkbb on 22 Nov 2019

Yes. Just do it manually and test, we can script it in later.

chamons on 22 Nov 2019

Ok. I will try.

berkbb on 22 Nov 2019

Any word?

chamons on 27 Nov 2019

Sorry for late response. I was abroad. I will try it and share the outputs in day.

berkbb on 28 Nov 2019

It not worked. App dock name is same as Assembly Name still :( If I manually change the app name, Dock icon shows which I typed but localization the dock name via Xamarin not work.

berkbb on 28 Nov 2019

Hi. Is there any solution found? Thank you.

berkbb on 10 Dec 2019

I don't understand what's going on, but I'm considering this a bug to be looked at. If you could attach a sample project that would be bonus.

chamons on 12 Dec 2019

I don't really understand why. I'll upload the sample project as soon as possible. Thank you.

berkbb on 12 Dec 2019

Here is a sample project with this issue. The app is being rejected by Apple because, instead of using the CFBundleDisplayName in info.plist, it is using the value for the <AssemblyName>AssetBuilder.Mac</AssemblyName> tag in AssetBuilder.Mac.csproj. Of course a work around would be a change to the <AssemblyName> tag value ... but the app won't compile if there are spaces in that value.

Help with this would be greatly appreciated!
