Now with 10.6, the Finder tool has been re-written using Cocoa. I am
using the Alias manager of Carbon framework in my utility, With 10.6
would this work or I need to port to Cocoa ?

The Finder is just an application; it's not the same as the underlying system frameworks. The Finder could be rewritten in Ruby or FORTRAN and it wouldn't affect the APIs you use :)


All of the CarbonCore APIs, including the Alias Manager, are still in 10.6. But there are some new methods on NSURL that provide simpler access to aliases (search for "bookmark" in the NSURL API docs.)
