Use GetProcessBundleLocation to find your app.
Using vRefNum/parID of 0,0 to find the app directory was deprecated
before OS X came out at all :)

I'm porting a classic app to Mach-O. I used to load some default
data files
on startup, that would be located in the same folder as the
application. (I
don't want to put these in the bundle/package, BTW).
It used to be that I would just call FSMakeFSSpec(0, 0, fileName,
&fsSpec),
with the name of the file, and it would automatically find it in
the same
folder as the app. This no longer seems to work.
Questions:
- can this still work in OS X, or am I supposed to be using CF
methods for
all of this?
- can someone provide an example of how to do this, or a pointer to
some
example code that shows this? I'm lost on which of the gazillion CF
calls to
use to construct this.
Thanks,
