Change Default Browser Programmatically Mac OSX

How would you change the default browser programmatically on Mac OSX.

For example from safari to chrome, or chrome to firefox?

Thanks

You should use

LSSetDefaultHandlerForURLScheme(
             CFStringRef inURLScheme, CFStringRef inHandlerBundleID)

See also Launch Service Reference Docs.

Use @"http" for the inURLScheme, and figure out the bundle identifiers of Firefox, Chrome etc. to use.

You can also check which are installed using 

LSCopyAllHandlersForURLScheme(CFStringRef inURLScheme)
