copied!<p>of course i did research before posting my question.</p> <p>I looked at<br> <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3352664/how-to-add-existing-frameworks-in-xcode-4">How to "add existing frameworks" in Xcode 4?</a><br> <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6334966/adding-framework-in-xcode-4">Adding Framework in Xcode 4</a><br> <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5395721/adding-an-opengl-framework-in-xcode-4">Adding an OpenGL framework in Xcode 4</a><br> <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6801709/xcode-4-adding-dylib">XCode 4 adding dylib</a> </p> <p>but whole thing is becoming wrong.</p> <p>My goal: <b>Add (CorePlot) framework to XCode Mac project</b> (not an iPhone one)</p> <p>My environment: OSX Lion 10.7, SDK Lion, XCode 4.1 (4B110)</p> <p>My steps: </p> <ul> <li>Opened XCode, created new project</li> <li>Downloaded CorePlot into my libraries directory (like ~/Applications/LIBS)</li> <li>Opened project preferences, via (+) opened dialog to add framework</li> <li>Add existing framework (+ copy files to dest. group if needed)</li> <li>Selected directory was ~/Applications/LIBS/CorePlot/Binaries/MacOS/CorePlot.framework/</li> <li>DnD CorePlot to Frameworks Group</li> <li>Added CorePlot to <code>Build Phases > Link Binary with Libraries</code></li> </ul> <p>and ran my project</p> <p>what I got is this error message:</p> <pre><code>dyld: Library not loaded: @loader_path/../Frameworks/CorePlot.framework/Versions/A/CorePlot Referenced from: /Users/username/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/metralight-hjuvuwlhgohrtdeepvcymnsaxomc/Build/Products/Debug/metralight.app/Contents/MacOS/metralight Reason: image not found </code></pre> <p>And in fact, when I looked into given directory (app bundle) there was no directory <code>Frameworks</code> and so the linking cannot be successful</p> <p>I have searched one more, and found, that I can create <code>Build Rule</code> and copy files into final binary bundle via some script, but is this only way how to do this?</p> <p>Isn't there some option to just turn on/off copying linked frameworks to final bundle?</p> <p>Note that CorePlot target '.framework' has <code>Dynamic Library Install Name</code> set to <code>@loader_path/../Frameworks/CorePlot.framework/Versions/A/CorePlot</code>, so it is looking in right place in final binary bundle</p>
