Re: Named image for regular folder?



And if your target is a previous iteration of OS X, a simple google yields
the following:

IconRef -> IconFamilyHandle -> NSData -> NSImage

That being said, I haven't tried this first hand, but it looks legit. No
idea about 64-bit on this; I guess though, if you are targetting 64-bit, you
are linking against 10.5 to begin with.
