baseURL problem with +fileURLWithPath:

Hi Everyone..

I am loosing my mind with NSURL's initFileURLWithPath. (Trying to build a 10.5 app.. btw)

If I create a NSURL object with a local file path, everything looks as it should, when stepping through the code with the debugger.
However, when I use "[myURL path]" in my code, I get a path to my binary instead of the path that is placed into NSURL object.
After doing some reading, this looks as if my local file path is being set as the "Relative" path, and the binary application is set as
the "BaseURL".

Can someone (preferably from Apple) explain why this is broken with file paths?
-- Yes.. it is broken, as there is no way to set the baseURL, nor is there a way to set my local file path as the baseURL.
--- I used absoluteURL, but that only returns the binary path.

I hope I don't have to remove these NSURL objects and replace them with NSStrings..
what a pain in the a..

bob.
