On Darwin #dsohandle points to a Mach-O file header. You can pass that address to dyld but I don't see an easy way to pass it to NSBundle.
This might work: 1. Pass #dsohandle to dladdr() 2. Pass the dli_fname returned by dladdr() to NSBundle(path:). > On Dec 2, 2016, at 12:50 PM, Rick Aurbach <rla...@icloud.com> wrote: > > Jordan, > > I agree — #dsohandle is, indeed, little known.
