Make a file extension that launches my app?

Okay I created my own extension and after saving a file I added that extension to it. Using the Get Info command I set all files with that extension to open my app. It launches the app, but doessn't read in the document. When I open a document that was created by my app from the menu, I call a method called openSaved. Is there some way of calling this method if the file was double-clicked? source
