public
{ Public declarations }
end;
var
FrmBadgeLabel: TFrmBadgeLabel;
implementation
{$R *.fmx}
procedure TFrmBadgeLabel.BadgeLabelClick(Sender: TObject);
var
// Create an instance of NSApplication
NSApp: NSApplication;
begin
NSApp := TNSApplication.Wrap(TNSApplication.OCClass.sharedApplication);
NSApp.dockTile.setBadgeLabel(StrToNSStr('23'));
