[...]

When I build the template project, I get the compiler warning
"warning: no debug map in executable" for both ppc and i286 arch's
(this is not the source of the problem, but I'd expect unchanged
template code to be warning free - what causes this?)

No idea; I don't get that warning here. I'm using Xcode 3.0 on an Intel Mac.

I just downloaded your sample and don't get the warning.

[...]

I get this message whether I load the .ibplugin bundle (I believe this
is what you're supposed to do) or the framework. Needless to say if I
add the framework (which contains the bundle in Resources) the plugin
is *not* automatically loaded when launching a nib from that project.


Any idea on what I might be doing wrong?

The IBPlugin itself needs to live inside the built framework (in the Resources folder). When choosing the plugin via IB's preferences, you'll be selecting the top-level folder of the framework. Note that it is possible to reverse this (i.e. IBPlugin lives on the "outside" with dependent framework contained within; Rainer B. has done this).

This is how the template does it - I notice that IB's file open sheet for adding a plugin does not allow you to look inside frameworks. I have been selecting the plugin inside the framework by navigating via the Finder into the framework and dragging the plugin into the IB file selection sheet. Maybe this is a clue? I feel like I must be mis- interpreting something.


Also, have you tried out my sample code? I believe I posted to both cocoa-dev and this list. Link is:

<http://www.instantinteractive.com/private/samplecode/MyIBPlugin.zip>

I found this from an earlier post, and had the same problem. Also re- downloaded from the current link and the same thing happened. Build and Run works fine - IB launches and shows the new UI elements. However launching IB solo and selecting


  IB Menu Bar:  Preferences > Plugins > + > drag plugin into sheet > OK

gives the same alert panel. I built your sample code with no mods, (Release build).

Thanks,

Rick
