Subject: No creator code on /System/Library/CoreServices/Finder
So, Mac::Carbon fails tests on a MBP bought yesterday (which presumably came with some annoyingly cutting-edge version of macos that noone else has installers for): # Failed test 'creator of '/System/Library/CoreServices/Finder'' # at MacPerl/t/MacPerl.t line 67. # got: '' # expected: 'MACS' And sure enough.. $ /Developer/Tools/GetFileInfo /System/Library/CoreServices/Finder file: "/System/Library/CoreServices/Finder" type: "" creator: "" attributes: aVbstclinmedz created: 12/07/2006 16:42:37 modified: 12/07/2006 16:42:37 So either my system is hopelessly broken, or Apple now care _so_ little about creator codes that they no longer set them on system stuff. Either way, I felt you should know about it...

Thanks. It's probably the latter. I have it on PPC, but apparently not on (some?) Intel systems. I'll come up with something ... -- Chris Nandor pudge@pobox.com http://pudge.net/ Slashdot / SourceForge pudge@slashdot.org http://slashdot.org/

No that's OK. More data is welcome! -- Chris Nandor pudge@pobox.com http://pudge.net/ Slashdot / SourceForge pudge@slashdot.org http://slashdot.org/
Sorry, I should have given my bug report a better name.

It seems like Apple has fixed this in Leopard: % uname -a Darwin Macintosh.local 9.1.0 Darwin Kernel Version 9.1.0: Wed Oct 31 17:46:22 PDT 2007; root:xnu-1228.0.2~1/RELEASE_I386 i386 % GetFileInfo /System/Library/CoreServices/Finder file: "/System/Library/CoreServices/Finder" type: "FNDR" creator: "MACS" attributes: aVbstclInmedz created: 09/23/2007 19:09:20 modified: 09/23/2007 19:09:20
