FSpCreateResFile

Create resource file using FSSpec

#include <Resources.h> Resource Manager

void FSpCreateResFile(spec, creator,fileType, scriptTag);

FSSpec *spec ; filename to be opened

OSType creator ; file's creator

OSType fileType ; type of file

ScriptCode scriptTag ; script code of the script system local to the file

The FSpCreateResFile procedure opens the file named in the spec

parameter. The creator parameter contains the signature of the application

that created the file, and the fileType parameter indicates what type of file it

is. The value of the scriptTag parameter should be the script code of the script

system in which the Finder and the standard file dialog boxes display the name

of the file. If you specify NIL, the FSpCreateResFile function defaults to the

Roman script system. If you use Standard File Package routines, note that

the StandardPutFile procedure returns a standard file reply record that

contains information about the file. Call the ResError function to check for

errors.

The file system specification record is described in the File Manager

description. The StandardPutFile procedure and the standard file reply

record are described in the Standard File Package. The result codes for the

FSpCreateResFile procedure are the same as those for the

ways of creating resource files in HFS. These routines are based on the

CreateResFile procedure. HCreateResFile is a simple function designed

for HFS; FSpCreateResFile uses file system specification records.
