I'm trying to upgrade my software to support 64 bits for the future.
Part of my soft is a Contextual Menu Plugin developed on the standard
SampleCFPlugin code base. For the moment I'm targetting Leopard, so Snow
Leopard is out of scope for now.
I've been able to build a 64 bits version of the plugin, since I don't
use any of the deprecated functions there.
I've also built a sample 32/64 bits universal Cocoa application to
display the plugin, for debugging purposes. My CMP is not necessarily
targeting the Finder, so I can (and need) to have it working in any 64
bits application.
Here are the results:
- 32 bits application shows the 32 bits Contextual Menu, ok
- 32 bits application doesn't show the 64 bits Contextual Menu
(expected) and shows an error message in the Console when trying to load
the bundle (wrong architecture, entry function not found)
- but the disturbing result is that the 64 bits application doesn't even
try to load the 64 bits plugin... It doesn't even call the entry
function declared in the Info.plist...
So the question: is the mechanism for loading a 64 bits CFPlugin
Contextual Menu in a 64 bits application still working; or did the
mechanism completely change (new UUID for 64 bit CMP ? )?
In this case, is this documented somewhere ?
Thanks for any help
