What happened to QuickTime GraphicsImportExportImageFile?

[Mike H.]

For a Classic app, I used the GraphicsImportExportImageFile function of
QuickTime to beautifully save a Gworld to a file. When I called this
function, a Save dialog box would come up, and would even allow the user to
specify what file type (JPG, PICT, etc) the image should be saved as.

In OS X, this behavior seems to be gone. I think the function still works
but the nice dialog is gone.

The sample code is at:

Is there a good way to save an image as a file in Carbon? (ideally that has
the same behavior as I had grown accustomed to)

Thanks!

What version of OS X and/or QuickTime are you running?

This was broken in the initial bringup of QuickTime on OS X, but appears
to have been fixed for QuickTime 6 and later (I didn't try it, but I
found information about it in the bug data base).

From the bug report, anything with prior to QuickTime 5.1 in it, which I
think was just 10.0.
