A tip for anyone converting a CodeWarrior Mach-O plugin to XCode...
REALpathFromFolderItem returns a path that works with CodeWarrior's
fopen, but not XCode's. The path is an old-style Mac path (:
separated), not a UNIX path that fopen expects. Am I missing an
easier way of opening a file than I use below? Is there something
here that should be feature requested? I get the string path, make a
new string prepended by "/Volumes/", append the path, and convert
':'s to '/'s.

REALfolderItem fi; // a parameter
REALstring path = REALpathFromFolderItem(fi);
if (path != NULL)
{
const char* path_string = REALCString(path);
if (path_string != NULL)
{
char* unix_path_string = malloc(strlen(path_string) + 100);
if (unix_path_string != NULL)
{
strcpy(unix_path_string, "/Volumes/");
strcat(unix_path_string, path_string);
for (char* x = unix_path_string; *x != 0; x++)
{
if (*x == ':') *x = '/';
}
file_ref = fopen(unix_path_string, "rb");
free(unix_path_string);
}
}
}
