IMPORTANT
Before calling any system software function from a task, you should call Gestalt
with the appropriate selector to determine whether it is safe to do so.
This appendix contains the following tables of functions::

PBOpenSync
|
Not supported in Carbon, so you should not use this function for File Manager open requests. For file open requests, you should call PBHOpenDFSync
, PBHOpenDF
, PBOpenForkSync
, or FSOpenFork
instead.
May be handled by the File Manager in Mac OS 9.
