Hi James, hi BaseX.app testers,
your suggestions make perfect sense to me. I've adapted the build process accordingly and produced a new BaseX.app from yesterdays snapshot:
http://files.basex.org/releases/BaseX-latest.app.tar.bz2 http://files.basex.org/releases/BaseX-latest.app.info.txt
Thanks a lot for your feedback and testing Alex

Hi Alex,
Thank you for putting up the new build. I no longer get any warnings about the source of the application so code signing must be working correctly.
I haven’t found any problems in the application itself either - key bindings are working.
You may already have considered it and just not implemented the process yet but it would be sensible to update a few of the fields in the Info.plist:
CFBundleIdentifier is currently set to org.basex - in case you ever release any other applications, or bundle the server separately, I think this would be better as org.basex.basexgui
CFBundleShortVersionString is currently set to 1.0. I think this should be the ‘marketing’ BaseX version - in this case 8.0
CFBundleVersion is currently set to 1. I think this should be set to the BaseX build number or similar. I think it has to be an integer but if not then the number from the title bar would make sense (currently 274831e) or perhaps the build date/time (2010827211717).
Thank you again for doing this.
Regards, James

and give me some feedback on this.
Many thanks, I’ve download it and run it. So far so good.
If the Mac OS X app can be brought back I’ll be very happy. I know I can just run the jar file but having it in my Applications is really useful and so easy for anyone getting started.
I’ll keep using the version you linked to and get back to you if I find anything odd.
I've just packaged the latest beta as a, now officially signed, BaseX.app.
In the next weeks I'll provide beta snapshots under the following URL
http://files.basex.org/releases/BaseX-latest.app.tar.bz2
The current one contains 'BaseX 8.0 beta 274831e' and is bundled with jdk1.8.0_20. MD5 (BaseX-latest.app.tar.bz2) = 1dd1625d5352af6a02c7145318f40844
Please let me know if everything works for you (positive feedback will bring the BaseX.app back with the 8.0 release).
Thanks Alex
