HI All,
What is the proper way to convert an HFS Path to a POSIX path?

The proper way is to make whatever effort you can to avoid having an HFS path to worry about in the first place. So if you have any control over that end of things, I'd say avoid it. In particular, if you're storing a file reference for any length of time, prefer aliases.

If that's not an option, I think the quickest route is through CFURLCreateWithFileSystemPath and CFURLCopyFileSystemPath.
