When I use call FSMakeFSSpec with the default vRef(0), the directory ID that I am interested in and 0 for the filename, the path is generated correctly. However, if I specify a filename which is present in the directory whose directory ID I pass in, it fails with -35 as the error code. Could anyone tell me what the reason behind this could be? Is there some special format for specifying the file name or is it just a null terminated string? If you look at the prototype you will see that the file name is a ConstStr255Param, which is a Pascal string, not a C string.
