Q: When we use the DirFindRecordGet function, we get the message
kOCEInvalidCommand (-1501). Is there another way to get all records from a
given catalog?
A: The catalog you are attempting to get record information about does not
support the DirFindRecordGet function (few out there actually do). To check
whether or not a particular catalog supports this function, you need to first
call DirGetDirectoryInfo() and check the features flags that are returned.
Check the kSupportsFindRecordBit (see
Inside Macintosh: AOCE Application Interface, p. 8-31) to see if this call is supported. If it is not
supported, you'll have to use DirEnumerateGet instead to get all the records
from a catalog. You also might want to look at the "DTS Catalog Peek" sample code on the Mac OS SDK.
