Keeping reference to file, even when it moves?

Hi,

I have noticed applications on MacOS X, such as iTunes, manage to keep the reference to a file even when it is moved elsewhere on disk. At the moment I have an application that has a playlist, but if the user moves the file I lose the reference to the file. The way I am doing it is simply keeping reference to the file path. If there is a way to keep track of the file when it is moved on disk, then I would be interested in knowing what the trick is.

Thanks in advance.
