Brandon,

I can tell you what needs to be changed but it is not the suggested route.

Everyone is saying that using @loader_path is the way to go over @executable_path, however that said

You change it in your target build settings for your framework. Stated by the author of Sparkle

"Oh, yeah, I've seen people need @executable_path. You would change that in Install Path in the Sparkle target of Sparkle.xcodeproj."

But as I said people have suggested against that.

Dave Dribin - "In general, @loader_path is preferred over @executable_path, as it allows embedded frameworks to work in both an executable and a bundle, plugin, or sub-framework. The only downside is that @loader_path requires 10.4 or newer. If you're on 10.5 or newer, @rpath is even better than @loader_path."

These are just debugger errors. This is most like due to those frameworks being compiled in Release mode with their debug symbols stripped. It should not affect debugging of your own application.

I did some googling and found that people used a tool to use @executable_path rather than @loader_path but I also read that those values should be the exact same so changing them is not the optimal change to make.

For an application, they resolve to the same thing.

Does anyone have any idea where I can see / set these values? I have checked my Xcode Project Build settings, the framework build settings, etc. and cannot find them.

They are set in the frameworks project, not yours. So if you're linking to pre-built versions of Sparkle and BWToolkit, there are no settings in your app that affect this.

In general, @loader_path is preferred over @executable_path, as it allows embedded frameworks to work in both an executable and a bundle, plugin, or sub-framework. The only downside is that @loader_path requires 10.4 or newer. If you're on 10.5 or newer, @rpath is even better than @loader_path.

I'm the developer of BWToolkit. Some users have run into this problem where the framework would work fine for them for a while, and then one day it would output the warnings that Joseph mentioned. My Xcode/gcc knowledge is a bit lacking, so I haven't been able to figure this one out. Do you know what changes have to be made in the BWToolkit Xcode project to fix this issue?

Thanks,
Brandon
