Generic File Signature Constant

Header: Navigation.h

To specify that your application can open all files of a given type (such as 'TEXT', for example), specify the kNavGenericSignature constant in the componentSignature field of the structure of type NavTypeList that you pass to a file-opening function such as NavGetFile. You can also pass this constant in the fileCreator parameter of the function NavPutFile in order to override the types of files appearing in the Format pop-up menu. For more information on using NavTypeList structures, see “Providing File Opening Options”. This constant is only available in Navigation Services 2.0 or later.

enum {
    kNavGenericSignature = '****'
};
