Yes, common frameworks should be in /Library/Frameworks or ~/Library/Frameworks. It's best to use a proper installer (which handles authenticating the user, installing to various target folders, running pre- and post-flight scripts, etc. which can be important for detecting version conflicts, quitting dependent apps if they're running, and other such issues). The drag-to-install approach in an application that needs write access to folders requiring admin rights is not the best approach, IMO. -- I.S. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
