Discussion

You should call the URLAccessAvailable function to determine whether the URL Access Manager is available before calling any other URL Access Manager functions. The URL Access Manager is part of Carbon Library 1.0.2, but is not currently part of Carbon.framework on Mac OS X. As a result, in Mac OS X, you must explicitly add URLAccess.framework to your project.
