I suspect the problem is your lib's embedded name. Use the 'otool'

the other libs it references. See 'man otool'.

Thanks for the suggestion. indeed otool does show the /usr/local/lib path, but I guess that would be expected.


If you don't change the Installation Directory build setting, I think
"/usr/local/lib" is the default value. That is then written to the lib
when it's linked. I change mine to ".", but my target isn't a bundle.

The "Installation Directory" setting did not seem to make a difference in my case and from what I have since read, it seems the bundle_loader flag would be what I need to correctly resolve the externals from the executable that loads the bundle. However it does not appear that this could be directed at a dylib. I think I may look at a design change here to avoid the plugins, particularly as I am not keen on also having to solve this on Windows and Linux. :-)


Thanks again though.
