Re: Creating FSRef from vrn, dirID, and name

I'm sure this has an obvious answer, but I'm having a senior moment or something. How can I create an FSRef for a folder given a volume ref num, parent directory ID, and folder name given as Unicode? I thought it was possible with PBMakeFSRefUnicodeSync, but it looks like it only takes the parent directory as an FSRef in the ref field, not as a pair of ioVRefNum and ioDirID. 

I found one way to do this, but it requires 2 steps:

OSErr MakeFSRef(const FSVolumeRefNum vrn, const UInt32 dirID, const ustring& name, FSRef* const fsr)
{
FSRefParam parm;
Str255 s;
OSErr err;
FSRef parent;

parm.ioCompletion = nil;
parm.ioNamePtr = s;
*s = 0;
parm.ioVRefNum = vrn;
parm.ioDirID = dirID;
parm.newRef = &parent;
PBMakeFSRefSync(&parm);

if((err = parm.ioResult) == noErr)
err = FSMakeFSRefUnicode(&parent, name.size(), name.data(), kTextEncodingUnknown, fsr);

return err;
}

Is this the best method for doing this? Seems like there should be a 1-step api.
