I have custom frameworks in my app bundle for WebKit, WebCore, and JavaScriptCore. I would like all other frameworks that depend on the system versions of WebKit, WebCore, or JavaScriptCore to use my custom versions also. For instance my custom version of Webkit loads private system frameworks that in turn depend on the system version of WebKit. This means both my WebKit and the system WebKit get loaded, and usually a crash happens shortly after.
The way I understand this should be done, is to set the DYLD_FRAMEWORK_PATH environmental variable before your app bundle begins execution (Search order for loading frameworks can be found here: http://code.google.com/p/macdependency/wiki/SearchPaths). You can set environmental variables in code with setenv, but it won't take effect for the currently running process. I would have to re-launch the process again for it to take effect. I would like to avoid this too.
So my question is what is the best way to set the DYLD_FRAMEWORK_PATH before the execution of the my app bundle? This has to work in a release app bundle too. Is there a way to run a script whenever someone clicks on my app bundle before the executable starts running. Or is there any other suggestions out there?
Thanks in advance.
