I'm running into a strange issue while getting icons for symlinks
and aliases on Intel machines - this is for a file browser in a
Cocoa application.
Basically, I get a FSRef to the file, then call
GetIconRefFromFileInfo() to get an IconRef, then convert this to an
IconFamilyHandle by calling IconRefToIconFamily(). The
IconFamilyHandle uses the exact data format as a standard .icns
file, so I process this further to get an actual NSImage for display.
I've found a workaround (with the kind help of Steve Gehrman of Path
Finder fame).
I'm now calling PlotIconRefInContext() to plot directly from the
IconRef into an NSImage, instead of first converting to a
IconFamilyHandle and then NSData...
...also a faster solution, it seems.
