Thanks for the replies.
Yes, using CFBundle was the way I solved it. But the fact that te debugger used the bundle's directory as working directory confused me.

after tracing, it looks like a fopen failed.
The path is relative, unix format (simply "folder/myFile.dat", "folder" containing "myFile.dat" as expected and being in the same directory as the app)
fopen works when I'm in the debugger, and sends back a null pointer when I open the app directly.
I suppose that in the debugger, the base address is the bundle address, and when executing directly, it's the binary executable address.
I solved the problem by providing absolute paths.


Is this behavior normal?

You cannot depend on a particular current working directory after starting a Carbon app, and the working directory can indeed be different when running inside or outside the debugger.


See http://developer.apple.com/documentation/CoreFoundation/Conceptual/CFBundles/Tasks/locating.html for how to get the path to your application bundle.
