Using FSFindFolder

[Harpstein]

hey all,


I've got a framework bundle that I want to load from a shared library.

I've got it working using FSFindFolder( kOnAppropriateDisk,
kFrameworksFolderType, false, ...);

But, I'd like to be able to tell it to load the framework from the same
directory as the shared library.

I checked the Carbon docs and the FrameworksFolderType enum I'm using isn't
in there so I'm hoping there might also be an undocumented type to tell it
to look in the current directory.

I've tried a couple guesses but they don't compile, so I'm hoping someone on
here can point me in the right direction.


Thanks for any help you can give,

harpstein

You just want to load a bundle?
CFBundleRef CFBundleGetBundleWithIdentifier(CFStringRef bundleID);
CFBundleRef CFBundleCreate(CFAllocatorRef allocator, CFURLRef bundleURL);

are probably your friends.
