We're making a tool that accepts a folder path, and copies all the files in
the path to an HFS-Plus formatted disc image (is there already a sample code
that does this?). We then wrote the disc image to a disc, and tried opening
it in MAC pc. Right now, it can only open up to 2 "levels" (i.e. until
root\folder1\folder2). My teammate has been trying to solve this for a
month now.
And so I thought I might need to debug the HFS plus code to better
understand the problem.
Thanks,
Raneil

You will find this virtually impossible, as a newcomer to the Darwin
world.

Nobody is going to be angry at you for doing that, if that's what you
mean.

You can't compile it into anything useful with Xcode.

If you were to explain why you think you need to "debug through the
HFS code"
we might be able to give you some better advice. Things are much more
complex than I think you think they are.
