Thanks, I will give the build script line a try. In way of further
explanation, I am co-developing the pane and the app, with the app bundle
currently winding up in the pref pane's "resources" directory through a
"copy files" phase in the build (and making the app target a dependency of
the pref pane target). Thus, it seems that I may need to tweak your build
script line.
If the PrefPane bundle exists as follows:
MyPrefPane.prefPane ->
Contents ->
Mac OS ->
prefpane 'executable'
Resources -> (A)
HelperApp.app ->
Contents ->
Mac OS ->
HelperApp executable
Resources -> (B)
The goal is to make "B" a symlink to "A". If the script runs after the
"copy files" phase, so the helper app is in place, is your syntax correct
(sorry, I always get the 'ln' command messed up forgetting which is the
'target' and which is the 'source').
I think I get it - this script should be run in the PrefPane build phase so
that $BUILT_PRODUCTS_DIRECTORY and $UNLOCALIZED_RESOURCES_FOLDER_PATH will
refer to those settings for the PrefPane target. Right?
I'll tinker with it, but if you have any further advice I really appreciate
all of the help I can get.
