I have .dylib files not .so files. I don't know if it the same. I
created a bundle in Xcode. Then, I added the .dylib, 5 of them, in the
MacOS folder of my bundle. The problem that I have is with the
references. I made a script that uses install_name_tool with the magic
@executable_path word. But this is not working. I have to use absolute
paths with my dylibs otherwise it does not work.
CFBundleGetFunctionPointerForName works properly. I have errors: "image
not found". The same script that I use works fine when building an
application with the dylibs instead of a bundle. If I look with otool
-L, everything looks fine.
I really would like to use relative paths for my dylibs but it does not
seem to work.
What should I do?
