Re: [osg-users] Cannot get apps to find plugins
Hi again, I have tried to find the reason for my issues and it seems that I have got it to work. The bad thing is that I have tested so many different ways that I'm not completely sure what I have done ;) Default on mac doesn't have /usr/local/lib in the PATH so it can/could/should) be added to DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH. A problem with this is that Xcode and finder doesn't use env vars when launching .apps so in that case you want to add DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH as an env var in the ~/.MacOSX/environment.plist. (When you start an app from the finder it uses something called laucnh services) However, that doesn't seem to solve all issues with Xcode so the easiest thing to do is probably to install in the /Library/Application Support/OpenSceneGraph/PLugIns/ directory. The right thing to do here is obviously(?) to enhance the support for buildning frameworks and have a install build phase in Xcode. In the meantime I will put my plugins in my /Library/Application Support/OpenSceneGraph/PlugIns/osgPlugins-2.6.0/ dir. It is found both when running from terminal and when launching from xcode or finder. btw: I built osg 2 times, one time from regular Makefiles and one time from the xcode project. I get the impression that these two versions are not compatible? Maybe the Makefiles built using 10.4 SDK and the Xcode project using the 10.5 ? Haven't researched this completely, just wanted to add my final thoughts /Filip On Fri, Sep 5, 2008 at 9:49 PM, Robert Osfield [EMAIL PROTECTED]wrote: Hi Filip, Could you try other and model image formats, such as osgviewer cow.osg And see what happens.

Hi Filip, If you have installed the OSG then there should be no need to set the path to the plugins, as the OSG should search the standard lib paths for the presence of the osgPlugins-2.x.x directory. A good way to check where the the OSG is searching for files and plugins is to enable verbose debug messages, on the command line do: setenv OSG_NOTIFY_LEVEL DEBUG osgviewer cow.osg Then look back up through the output till you can see it search for the osgdb_osg plugin.

Hi Filip, Could you try other and model image formats, such as osgviewer cow.osg And see what happens. Robert.
