Sign binary for download with Developer ID to get past Gatekeeper

[abbeycode]

I'm getting this when I launch. I believe it can be solved by getting a free Apple Developer ID and signing the app with that.

You should be able to right-click the app, choose open, and then run it.

If that fails you can adjust your Gatekeeper settings in System Preferences > Security & Privacy to allow apps from anywhere.

[Edit]

You can get a free developer ID, but I’m not sure you’ll be able to sign it then. If you go that route you will be compiling it yourself at which point you do not need to sign it (development build on your own machine).

You will need a Developer ID to submit bug reports to Apple.

@joepasq Thanks for the input. I realize how to open unsigned apps, and I also realize I could download the source myself and sign it. My point was that the copy for download from quickradar.com should be signed, for user-friendliness and security-consciousness. I apologize if that wasn't clear.

Sorry about that. I must have messed up the signing last time I did a release. I'll leave this task open for now, to be sure to fix it next time I do one :)

No problem, happy to point it out

Pardon if I chime in with the only semi-related fact that including the Growl framework makes the app bundle fail code signature verification(which you can see for yourself with codesign --verify --deep -v /path/to/QuickRadar.app, which I use as part of the autopkg project.

We should probably remove Growl now we have native notifications. It's left over from supporting 10.7.
