This sample details the steps involved in putting together a project that uses Scripting Bridge to send Apple events to the Finder application. The sample is a small application launcher that scans the contents of the Applications folder (two levels deep) using Scripting Bridge for items the Finder considers applications. The user interface presents a list of the items that are found and allows the user to launch them. The program processes requests to launch applications from the user interface by using Scripting Bridge to ask the Finder to launch them.
