I am investigating the use of sparse bundles and sparse images to distribute
some data with my application. I have a few questions:
1. Is there an API to create and mount them?

Not that I'm aware of. Just shell out to the hdiutil command-line tool.

2. Can disks be mounted privately for a process? I don't want any other
process to access that image while my process is using it.

No. _______________________________________________
