Import : EndImport - path?

[Lebostein]

Hi,

to import a dylib on mac, the code works if the dylib is in the same directory as the pb-file.
If I compile this pb to an app, in which subdirectory I have to copy the dylib?

Thanks.

• Copy the dylib into "YourAppName.App/Contents/MacOS/"
  or into a subdirectory within this folder, for example "YourAppName.App/Contents/MacOS/lib/"
• Now run the command:

  Code: Select all

  install_name_tool -change YourDylibName.dylib @executable_path/YourDylibName.dylib ./YourAppName.App/Contents/MacOS/YourAppName

  If you installed into lib/ subdirectory, you write

  Code: Select all

  install_name_tool -change YourDylibName.dylib @executable_path/lib/YourDylibName.dylib ./YourAppName.App/Contents/MacOS/YourAppName

  (replace "YourAppName" and "YourDylibName" with your own names. Do not replace "@executable_path", it is written like that)
• Verify the changed dylib path by running:

  Code: Select all

  otool -L ./YourAppName.App/Contents/MacOS/YourAppName

  It should output "@executable_path/" in front of your dylib name, whereas before the change it just displayed the dylib name without a path

Thank you! I will try it.
