Should I be using objective-c to use the FSCopyURLForVolume()

Did you look at the prototype?
/*
* FSCopyURLForVolume()
*
* Discussion:
* This routine returns a copy of the url for the passed in volume.
* The caller is responsible for releasing the CFURL later.
*
* Mac OS X threading:
* Thread safe since version 10.3
*
* Parameters:
*
* vRefNum:
* FSVolumeRefNum of the target volume.
*
* url:
* The url associated with the target volume.
*
* Availability:
* Mac OS X: in version 10.3 and later in
CoreServices.framework
* CarbonLib: not available in CarbonLib 1.x
* Non-Carbon CFM: not available

Yes, from "File.h" it was not much help.
extern -- I am not sure what that means guessing connecting to some
external app or file
OSStatus -- I think that is the return type, not to sure how to use
it yet, but this is the type the result will be that will have to be
converted into a string by the CFURLGetString() command. Hoping to
get "cifs://MSHOME;DANIELBR@IBM_NETVISTA/MYVIDEOS" as a result of
some processing.
FSVolumeRefNum vRefNum -- not sure what this is.
But I might be able to get it from FSGetVolumeForDiskID() but then
that asks for a vRefNum and diskID and it goes on and on, and I am
not getting anywhere. Feels like it is getting over complicated
passing the same stuff around for the most part as parameters.
CFURLRef *url --- Is this some form of the path "file://localhost/
Volumes/MYVIDEOS/"
However, as a good thing there are some docs on CFURL so I may be
able to figure out that. http://developer.apple.com/documentation/
CoreFoundation/Reference/CFURLRef/Reference/reference.html
What should I be focusing on as a minimum? Objective-c , Core
Foundation/ services, all of the above, etc to use those functions.
New to programming Apps for OS 10 . Started Development of Mac os
10 apps using AppleScript Studio. I have some experience with C / C+
+ and plan on moving to Objective-C full time at a later date. But
for now I want to try to get My AppleScript Studio program working.
Thank you,
