I'm using Rev 2.1.2 under Mac OS X 10.3.2 to build an app. If I run the app inside the development environment, or as a standalone Classic app, then it works fine. However, if I run the OS X app built at the same time, then it fails to locate the support folder and files in the same folder as the app.

Hi Peter,


Welcome to the wonderful world of Mac OS X application bundles.

Control click on your OS X stabdalone + select "Package Contents" reveals a folder, "Contents"

Inside "Contents" are:
        Info.plist
        pbdevelopment.plist
        Pkginfo
        A folder, "Resources", containing--
                Revolution.rsrc
                RevolutionDoc.icns
                Revolution.icons
        A folder, "Mac OS", containing--
                Revolution [your standalone]

So if your standalone on other platforms expects to find the support folder in the same folder in which the standalone resides, your folder must be in the Mac OS folder on OS X.

I deal with this by using a generalized search handler that looks for support folders in both locations...among others.
