Hi Guys, To the Registry::createLibraryNameForExtension(..) I have gone ahead added the insertion of osgPlugins-version/ in front of plugin names for all platforms except OSX. This change will work to ensure that correct version of the plugins is picked up at runtime.
Please not if you are setting paths to the plugins, you shouldn't do this, rather set path to the parent directory of the plugins. If you are installing the OSG into system directories then probably won't need to add anything at all. For OSX, there is rather a mess in FileUtils.cpp file where the OSX version of osgDB::appendPlatformSpecificLibraryFilePaths hardwires the directory name of PlugIns, which will be what the XCode projects are probably hardwiring too as well. I don't know if this convention is something common on OSX or that it was just adopted by the OSX contributors. Personally I think we should be setting the path under OSX to osgPlugins-version like on all other platforms. On OSX there is also the issue of the Cmake build installing files in standard unix places not frameworks, but the source code above is still hardwired to the Frameworks directories which can lead to the wrong plugins being picked up.
