Sharing Data between Applications
Reading Data from Another Soup
To read data from a soup, your application needs to know two things:
- The name of the soup
- The structure of an entry: the entry's slot names and values
The format of the soups used by some of the built-in applications is published by Apple. You are encouraged to publish the format of your soups so that they can be used by other applications as well.
