OK, now here's a stumper:
How do I get the icon for a plain old folder?



image = [[NSWorkspace sharedWorkspace] iconForFileType: NSFileTypeForHFSTypeCode('fldr')];




That'll work, but why not just use:

image = [[NSWorkspace sharedWorkspace] iconForFileType: NSDirectoryFileType];

which saves the function call?


Becuase it doesn't work? You end up getting the "plain document" icon instead... (NSDirectoryFileType being one of the things returned by getInfoForFile:application:type: which isn't the same as a "file type" that you pass to iconForFileType, which is "either a filename extension or an encoded HFS file type").

Hmm.. I'd call that an AppKit bug..
