I've been struggling with for quite a while now, what i want to achieve is create an alias of a folder at some location. The alias would also be a folder like we have after creating an alias in the finder. say i have a folder "foo" in "/Users/me/Documents/foo" and i want to programatically create an alias of that folder on my desktop "/ Users/me/Desktop/fooalias" how can i do that?

You should probably use FSNewAliasFromPath(), but unless you have a really good reason for creating an alias, you should probably create a symbolic link instead.
