Re: IFS File Authority

[Vernon Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

These are for library objects, not the rest of the IFS.

There is the stat() function - it is callable with CALLPRC from a CLLE 
program because it uses pointers. First parameter is the path name, second 
parameter is a structure that contains the various information you want - 
declare a *CHAR long enough to get it all. See InfoCenter API Finder to get 
the details. Scott Klement probably has the layout translated into the 
various binary, etc., data chunks.
