OSX 10.11.2, XCode 7.2, MacBook Pro mid-2012, 8 GB.

I have developed in XCode an AU plugin (info.plist given below) named 
PRGA.component, put in directory  HD/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components.  

I get different results with different auvaltool flags. The component is found 
with the -v flag, but not with others.

--------------------- My question is: What is going on here?

There is a factory function PRGAFactory (the factoryFunction in info.plist), it 
does not do anything (returns nullptr). There is no .exp or .r file.
The only header included in my .h file is AudioComponent.h, which is in the 
AudioUnit framework.
I am trying to find the plugin with the least possible functionality that will 
be seen by LogicPro. (A “Hello, World” AU plugin, as it were.) This is only my 
first step.

type = INST
subtype = ABCD
manufacturer=BRAW.



>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

auvaltool - a : does not list the component at all

auvaltool -s INST

auvaltool -vt INST BRAW   
 result: 
--------------------------------------------------
VALIDATING AUDIO UNIT: 'INST' - '00000000' - 'BRAW'
--------------------------------------------------
ERROR: Cannot get Component's Name strings
ERROR: Error from retrieving Component Version: -50

* * FAIL
--------------------------------------------------
TESTING OPEN TIMES:
FATAL ERROR: didn't find the component

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

auvaltool -v INST ABCD BRAW 
result:
--------------------------------------------------
VALIDATING AUDIO UNIT: 'INST' - 'ABCD' - 'BRAW'
--------------------------------------------------
Manufacturer String: BRAW
AudioUnit Name: PRGA
Component Version: 0.0.1 (0x1)

* * PASS
--------------------------------------------------
TESTING OPEN TIMES:
COLD:

=======================================

So the component was found by auvaltool with the -v flag.

LogicPro does not find the component, even after I empty caches and empty trash.

Here is the info.plist, opened with TextEdit.
