Qt Install Framework MAC - how to create dock entry

We are using the Qt Install Framework on MAC. I would like to create the dock entry in MAC.

If you know how to create dock entry, let me know.

Qt Install framework does not provide any option like this. We need to execute apple script code.

Following is the code snippet to create the same

#!/bin/sh
user=`ls -la /dev/console | cut -d " " -f4`
echo " User list is $user"
sudo -u $user defaults write com.apple.dock persistent-apps -array-add "<dict><key>tile-data</key><dict><key>file-data</key><dict><key>_CFURLString</key><string>file:///Users/dheeru/Desktop/1_MT/CheckDockEntry/bins/CheckDockEntry.app</string><key>_CFURLStringType</key><integer>15</integer></dict></dict></dict>"
killall Dock

Following is my application location. Change the path according to your app.
