Yes, I know. You said that before.

In other OS , there are some common icons that you can use it in your
own project.

Not relevant. This isn't another OS.

I think there are better ways to get this that to show Resource folder
of all Programs.

If you know so much, why are you asking here?

Icons fall into two distinct groups: icons the system provides through GetIconRef, and icons provided as a part of the application package. You said you wanted icons for use in toolbars and buttons. While the system has a small number of standard icons you might be able to use for those purposes, most toolbar item and button icons you see in applications are not provided by the system. They are provided by the developer and stored in the application's Resources folder. The developer usually creates them himself or hires someone who has experience in designing icons. In most cases the developer provides all of those icons so they will have a consistent look to them. If you want those kinds of icons, then no, there isn't a better way to get them than looking in application Resources folders.

To give you the best answer we need to know exactly what you're trying to accomplish. Just saying you want icons is too vague. If we knew exactly which icons you wanted we could give you better information. As some people would say, ask smart questions.

I try to take a look at Philip answer to Look in Icons.h for GetIconRef() .


But where is locate this Icons.h?

Thanks.

These icons would be stored in the Resources folder of the relevant
applications, typically as TIFF files for Cocoa applications such as
Apple's.
