// This file provides several functions to explicitly request the various
// component bundles of Chrome.  Please use these methods rather than calling
// +[NSBundle mainBundle] or CFBundleGetMainBundle().
//
// Terminology
//  - "Outer Bundle" - This is the main bundle for Chrome; it's what
//  +[NSBundle mainBundle] returns when Chrome is launched normally.
//
//  - "Main Bundle" - This is the bundle from which Chrome was launched.
//  This will be the same as the outer bundle except when Chrome is launched
//  via an app shortcut, in which case this will return the app shortcut's
//  bundle rather than the main Chrome bundle.
//
//  - "Framework Bundle" - This is the bundle corresponding to the Chrome
//  framework.
//
// Guidelines for use:
//  - To access a resource, the Framework bundle should be used.
//  - If the choice is between the Outer or Main bundles then please choose
//  carefully.  Most often the Outer bundle will be the right choice, but for
//  cases such as adding an app to the "launch on startup" list, the Main
//  bundle is probably the one to use.

// Methods for retrieving the various bundles.
