I'm trying to port an OS9 app to Xcode as a Carbon application, but I
can't get it to compile because Xcode's compiler doesn't even know what a
CWindowRecord is. Where is this defined in Xcode? Including Carbon.h
doesn't seem to do the trick.

Thanks in advance, and please CC your reply to <darel@alienryderflex.com>
or I may miss it!

This has nothing to do with Xcode; instead, it's a Carbon thing.
Windows are opaque in Carbon, so you no longer have direct access to
WindowRecords. Take a look at Carbon's MacWindows.h (press command-D in
Xcode, type "MacWindows.h", and press return), and you'll see the new
APIs that Carbon provides for working with windows.
