Get BSD file descriptor from OSX CoreServices objects

Question

I am new to OSX user space development. I've read documentation and googled before asking, but still have no clue about the following.

If i am to use CoreServices framework to work with files (FSRef, Forks, URLs, etc.) will i be able to get a raw BSD file descriptor (plain int)? If yes, then how can i do that? The thing is, i want to learn to program with OSX frameworks, but the actual task at hand will require BSD file descriptor later.

Inso.

Answer 1

Looks like there is really no way to do this. Oh well.
