Plugin Framework

I'm trying to build an application using a plugin structure, with all plugins' primary classes being subclasses of a superclass I provide in a framework. All targets (framework, plugins, and application) are build in the same project.

This means that the plugins must link against the Framework, and both plugins and framework are copied into the app bundle by the application target's build settings.

Everything builds and works, but for each plugin, I get the warning:

can't open dynamic library: @executable_path/../Frameworks/FrameworkName.framework/Versions/A/ FrameworkName

Which makes perfect sense, as the framework is not in the executable until after the app is built, which is after all the plugins are built (Well; it almost makes sense; my explanation only makes sense on clean rebuilds).

I have tried to search Mamasam for a solution, but it doesn't like apostrophes ("can't") or punctuation ("@executable_path") in it's search strings.

While this doesn't actually seem to cause any problems, it's annoying. There has to be a way around this, but I can't figure it out. Any suggestions?
