- (1) Inside Mac IV says that PBUnmountVol will close any open files on a
- volume it's unmounting. But when you drag a volume to the trash in Finder,
- Finder calls UnmountVol, and if there were open files on the volume, the
- call fails with a fBsyErr. That error is not listed as one of the
- possibilities in the PBUnmountVol documentation. What's going on?
-
- (2) I traced a crashing INIT to the fact that _SetFileInfo was calling
- NewDialog. It created a dialog with 4 userItems and one button named
- "Stop", but never actually displayed the dialog. Can anyone tell me what
- this dialog is for?
