Hi,
this must be an old question, in fact I have seen it asked on this
and other lists' archives, however I did not find a definite answer.
I'd like to ship my application that calls a dynamic library from a third-party
provider. How can I configure my cocoa app built with project builder
to make dyld link my.app/Contents/Framework/lib3rdparty.dylib when
my.app is launched? Since it is unlikely that lib3rdparty.dylib will
be used by other apps, it does not seem to make sense to install it
into one of the system-wide search paths.
I don't have access to the library sources, so I don't see how I can
set the library install path to "executable_path/../Frameworks"...
Everything works fine (a) if I run my.app from PB, and (b) if I
setenv DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH and open my.app from the shell. So probably
I could create a launcher application that first sets
DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH and then launches my.app. However I guess there
must be a nicer solution?
Thanks in advance,
jochen
