Hi Ebrahim,
Please double check the library is build prebound with the following cmd:
otool -hv yourlib
Another way to determine if a Mach-O executable is prebound is to enable the
prebinding debugging option and launch your executable. You can do this
using the following steps:
Launch Terminal.
At the Terminal prompt, type the following:
setenv DYLD_PREBIND_DEBUG
A rough way to find prebound addresses is to do the following:
Check size of the app (say size is a), reserve space from 0x0 to size of
your app for the app.
Start Library 1 at a + some delta.
Start Library 2 at (a + some delta) + size lib 1 + delta etc...
DTS is working on a tool to do this automatically and if I'm not mistaken
otool can as well tell you what the last address used in your lib.
More info on prebinding can be found here:
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Performance/Conceptual/LaunchTime/T
asks/Prebinding.html
Try that:
LDFLAGS = -prebind -seg1addr 0x0A000000 -twolevel_namespace -L/usr/local/lib
-L/sw/lib -L/usr/lib -framework CoreAudio

Hope this helps,
