Folder Descriptor Location Constants

There are two special folder locations that you can specify in folder descriptors via the FolderDesc structure and the AddFolderDescriptor function. For folders whose class is kSpecialFolder , you can use the following constants to specify the location of the folder algorithmically. The FolderLocation constants are supported under Mac OS 8 and later.



 
enum {

    kBlessedFolder      = 'blsf',

};

typedef OSType FolderType;

typedef OSType FolderLocation;
