[cfe-dev] DirectoryLookup.h related question.

[steve naroff]

A framework is an Apple-specific packaging mechanism for libraries.
A headermap is an Apple-specific lookup mechanism for finding headers  
within a library.

If you aren't interested in handling Apple-specific mechanisms, you  
shouldn't need to worry about them...
