Thank you, I know (and used) this sample code. This is when you're a CFM application, calling into a Mach-O loadable bundle, and maybe calling back from the bundle into your CFM application. We use this for WebKit integration.


We're trying to call CFM from Mach-O, not the other way around :-]. I guess we're looking for MachO_CFM_MachO...

This may be as well:

Specifically, MachOFunctionPointerForCFMFunctionPointer()

Again, this is when you are a CFM app and calling into Mach-O. We use this too :-)

We have a large legacy application that was CFM-based. It is now Universal (meaning, Mach-O) and we ran into a plug-in problem.


Is it possible for a Mach-O PPC application to call a CFM plug-in? We know how to do the opposite (CFM calling Mach-O), because that's how we use Cocoa technologies in our CFM app.

We believe this is possible because Adobe Photoshop CS2 is a Mach-O application, yet it supports CFM plugins (the vast majority of PS plugins out there are CFM).

For us, we crash right when we call the plugin. Here are some excerpts from our code. Basically, we find the disk fragment and we load it, then we try to execute it (and crash). There are no errors, we get a disk fragment and a pointer to some data, but we can't execute it.
