I'm getting the following error when running my application in Project
Builder. Here's a little background:
I have an NSOpen Panel that I'm using not to open a file, but to return
the path of the file chosen. I have it set to resolve aliases.
The panel returns the paths of files, folders and most aliases without a
problem. However, if I click on some aliases, I get the error.
(FSOpenIterator failed:-1407)
It happens with both BBEdit Lite aliases (...Lite for OS X, and the
...Lite for OS 9). It also happens with the alias for my Netscape
Communicator (not the X version, but 4.x -- the Classic version). I
haven't found others, but I've tested many other aliases. Otherwise, the
aliases seem to resolve fine: folder aliases open the original item,
file aliases return their own path.
THIS IS MY ONE CLUE!!! --> It seems like aliases to applications that
are actually packages do not return this error. Both BBEdit and Netscape
are non-package applications. I created an alias to Flash 5 (non-package
app) to test this, and confirmed my findings.
Above all, I would like to know where to find a list of error codes that
I might run into. I'd also like to know if there is a way to provide for
this in my application, or if I may safely ignore the error. (I'm
guessing errors are never safely ignored.) Thank you!
