Is there a way, save manually editing the backing XML files, to combine
multiple file system deployment sources into a single package?
PackageMaker 3.0.3 seems insistent on each file system deployment source
being an separate choice (when using the Add Contents... UI) or at minimum,
a separate package (when dragging and dropping).
Basically, I have a distribution consisting of a preference pane, user
agent, five frameworks and two dynamic libraries. The layout, once
installed, will be:
/
Library/
Application Support/
<System>/
lib/
y.dylib
z.dylib
Applications/
agent.app
PrivateFrameworks/
a.framework
b.framework
c.framework
<SubSystem>/
PrivateFrameworks/
d.framework
<SubSystem>/
PrivateFrameworks/
e.framework
PreferencePanes/
pref.prefPane
The preference pane and agent are built by one project and the frameworks
and dynamic libraries each are built by their own project (referenced by the
prefpane/agent project) all of which end up in a single top-level deployment
directory:
$(CONFIGURATION_BUILD_DIR)/dist/
<Agent & PrefPane Project>/
Library/
Application Support/
Applications/
agent.app
PreferencePanes/
pref.prefPane
<Y Dynamic Library Project>/
lib/
y.dylib
<Z Dynamic Library Project>/
lib/
z.dylib
<A Framework Project>/
Library/
Application Support/
<System>/
PrivateFrameworks/
a.framework
and so forth. I realize, of course, that I could simply change DSTROOT and
tweak the the INSTALL_PATH for the dynamic libraries and drag and drop that
one result; however, there are other packages that are created in the source
tree that assemble (mix and match if you will) some of these components
slightly differently.
Regards,
Grant
