Title: PrefPane with embedded App - Shared Resources
Sorry if this is a newbie question.
I am developing a PrefPane with an embedded/included application. The ‘pane and app share code and resources. For reasons I won’t go into here (see Cocoa-Dev), a shared framework won’t work for me.
Right now, I am embedding the app in the ‘pane using a “copy files” phase in the build. However, this results in two separate Resource directories (one at the ‘pane level and one inside the app bundle). I would like the app and the ‘pane to share resources.
I am at a bit of a loss as to the best way to do this and how to actually set it up in Xcode. The two options I see are (1) build the executable of the app at the same level as the ‘pane; or (2) symlink the app’s “Resources” directory to the higher level “Resources” directory of the ‘pane.
My question: which is the better method (if either), and how do I actually accomplish it in Xcode? I would like a solution that works transparently across build configurations so I don’t have to remember extra build steps when switching between Debug and Release.
Thanks in advance
