OK. Fixed it, but it's still not working:

When I run 'file' on my app, I see:

TurboMonkey:~ tciuro$ file /Users/tciuro/Desktop/Builds/Debug/RichEmailSender.app/Contents/MacOS/RichEmailSender 
/Users/tciuro/Desktop/Builds/Debug/RichEmailSender.app/Contents/MacOS/RichEmailSender: Mach-O executable i386

Building it in x86_64 results in an error:

Ld /Users/tciuro/Desktop/Builds/Debug/RichEmailSender.app/Contents/MacOS/RichEmailSender normal x86_64
cd /Users/tciuro/Desktop/RichEmailSender

collect2: ld terminated with signal 10 [Bus error]
Command /Developer/usr/bin/gcc-4.2 failed with exit code 1

Setting the supported architecture to Standard (32bit/64bit) results in a linker error. I don't know what to make of this.

Ah! It looks like EDCommon hasn't been built for x86_64:

I'll check the project settings for EDCommon and rebuild the framework.

Big thanks!

You included that as a reply-quote, as such your emails are almost impossible to read with so many lines.

Anyway, these paths are all correct. Are you sure you're trying to launch this exact same instance of the app, and not another one somewhere else? Another possibility may be that you only build the frameworks for certain architectures, so also check that. For instance try running otool with an -arch option, probably for x86_64 as that's what you seem to be launching.

And what does otool -D say on the framework executables?

So the @executable path in both frameworks seems to be pointing in the right direction. Anything else that could be missing?

Thank you,

That seem to be OK. Are you sure you have the copy and link build phases correct? Another thing you can check is "otool -L /Users/tciuro/Desktop/Builds/Debug/RichEmailSender.app/Contents/MacOS/RichEmailSender", and see if the path to the frameworks appear correctly.

You may try "otool -D" to see if the dynamic linked binary has an "install name" starting with "@executable." If it is not, that is the problem and I so far have not known a way to change it without having access to the source code.

Hello,

Earlier today I sent this email to the Cocoa-dev list, but I later realized that this issue was more Xcode than Cocoa related. My apologies for cross-posting, it was never my intention do that on purpose.

I'm having some trouble embedding a framework in my app. I've done that countless times before in other projects and it worked fine, but for some reason, it doesn't work this time around. I don't know what I'm missing and I get the feeling I'm running in circles. The app launches (and works) fine if I launch it from Xcode. However, if I launch from Finder I see the following in Console.app

I have googled for info and I've seen a lot of info (and misinformation as well), so I tried the following:

1) Drag the frameworks (EDMEssage + EDCommon) to my Xcode project
2) Added a Copy Files Build Phase to the target
3) Selected Frameworks from the popup and checked Copy only when installing (info window of the Copy Files Build Phase)
4) Set the Runpath Search Paths to @loader_path/../Frameworks/

Running otool -l shows the following:

So the frameworks are there and supposedly referenced correctly. Then... why can't the library be loaded? Is there anything else I need to do? Anything else I'm perhaps missing? If you need to see the project, please contact me offline, as I don't want to spam the list with my stuff.

Thanks in advance,
