(MACOSX) - Knowing whether a mounted device was mounted from a DMG

Question

Well the title says it all - couldn't find that info using DiskArbitration or FSGetVolumeInfo/GetVolumeParms...

I know that hdiutil uses a private framework called DiskImages framework, but I wouldn't want to run an external utility each time I want this info... wheres the API for this ?

Thanks.

Answer 1

There are a number of open source solutions to this problem. Here's one I found with a quick search: M3InstallController. It'll even take care of installing the application for the user.

Updated: Yes, I agree this isn't a packaged, targeted solution but it's based on detecting the exact situation the question describes. Taking the time to look over the code is required.
