First, forget about "from external framework". Code cannot know what is calling it*. Code that works in an application will also work in a framework. It is possible that you're directing Cocoa to look for resources in the wrong place (the resources are in the framework but you implicitly told it to search the application, for example), but that's not quite the same. Your symptoms sound a lot like what happens when there's an uncaught exception. All sorts of stuff gets screwed up if you throw an exception through code that doesn't expect it, which can leave the framework in an inconsistent state. Does anything show up in your run log or debugger log? * Technically it is possible to find out whether a method or function was called from application or framework code, and even which framework. But it's unorthodox and evil, and rare to the point that I've never even heard of anyone besides myself doing it.
