Full project demonstrating file association. To test it you will need to (on device): - Install to device & quit the app if necessary - Open up a PDF file (probably via Mail) by HOLDING on it, then clicking 'Open in...' - See if the 'filetypes' app appears in the list, and click it - The app boots, and displays some information about its arguments on the screen (although you won't see the file URL, without adjusting the label box size)
Is this functionality not working on SDK>=3.0.0? http://developer.appcelerator.com/question/151749/register-ios-filetype-on-alloy-tiappxml#comment-171486
