NSURLMBS.DocumentIdentifier as String

The document identifier is a value assigned by the kernel to a file or directory. This value is used to identify the document regardless of where it is moved on a volume. The identifier persists across system restarts. It is not transferred when the file is copied, but it survives "safe save" operations.
Document identifiers are only unique within a single volume. This property is not supported by all volumes.

Available in OS X v10.10 and iOS 8.0.
(Read only property)

NSURLMBS.EffectiveIcon as Variant

Available in OS X v10.6 and later.

Value is a NSImageMBS object.
(Read only property)

NSURLMBS.filePathURL as NSURLMBS

If the receiver is a file reference URL, this property contains a copy of the URL converted to a file path URL. If the receiver’s URL is a file path URL, this property contains the original URL. If the original URL is not a file URL, or if the resource is not reachable or no longer exists, this property contains nil.

Available in OS X v10.6 and later.
(Read only property)

NSURLMBS.fileReferenceURL as NSURLMBS

File reference URLs use a URL path syntax that identifies a file system object by reference, not by path. This form of file URL remains valid when the file system path of the URL’s underlying resource changes.

If the original URL is a file path URL, this property contains a copy of the URL converted into a file reference URL. If the original URL is a file reference URL, this property contains the original. If the original URL is not a file URL, this property contains nil.

File reference URLs cannot be created to file system objects which do not exist or are not reachable. This property contains nil instead.

In some areas of the file system hierarchy, file reference URLs cannot be generated to the leaf node of the URL path.

A file reference URL's path should never be persistently stored, because it is not valid across system restarts or remounts of volumes. If you need to store a persistent reference to a file system object, use a bookmark instead. You can create a bookmark by calling bookmarkDataWithOptions.

Available in OS X v10.6 and later.
(Read only property)

NSURLMBS.FileResourceIdentifier as String

This identifier can be used to determine equality between file system resources with the isEqual: method. Two resources are equal if they have the same file-system path or if their paths link to the same inode on the same file system.

The value of this identifier is not persistent across system restarts.

Available in OS X v10.7 and later.
Returns hex encoded data.
(Read only property)

NSURLMBS.FileResourceType as String

See File Resource Types for possible values.
Available in OS X v10.7 and later.
(Read only property)

NSURLMBS.fileSystemRepresentation as String

(Read only property)

NSURLMBS.fragment as String

This property contains the URL’s fragment. If the receiver does not conform to RFC 1808, this property contains nil. For example, in the URL http://www.example.com/index.html#jumpLocation, the fragment identifier is jumpLocation.
(Read only property)

NSURLMBS.GenerationIdentifier as String

The generation identifier can be compared using isEqual to determine if the data in a document has been modified. For URLs which refer to the same file inode, the generation identifier changes when the data in the file's data fork is changed. Changes to extended attributes or other file system metadata do not change the identifier. For URLs which refer to the same directory inode, the generation identifier changes when direct children of that directory are added, removed or renamed. Changes to the data of the direct children of that directory does not change the generation identifier. The identifier persists across system restarts. It is tied to a specific document on a specific volume and is not transferred when the document is copied to another volume. This property is not supported by all volumes.

Available in OS X v10.10 and iOS 8.0.
(Read only property)

NSURLMBS.Handle as Integer

(Read only property)

NSURLMBS.host as String

This property contains the host. For example, in the URL http://www.example.com/index.html, the host is www.example.com.

If the receiver does not conform to RFC 1808, this property contains nil. The litmus test for conformance to RFC 1808 is as recommended in RFC 1808—specifically, whether the first two characters of resourceSpecifier are slashes (//).
(Read only property)
