What is the *recommended* way to build and package a shared library for OSX?
Our aim is that ordinary users can "just install it" such that other applications that depend on the library "just run" (without requiring authors of those other applications to include a copy of the library in their bundle or users to fiddle with command line command to configure them if they don't). This library facilitates low level I/O. There are no UI or other resources but it has headers for those who want to build apps against it. If this were just UNIX we'd put under /usr/lib (and /use/include and perhaps /usr/share) but doing this this seems to be discouraged when reading the Apple's developer docs. We don't want to depend on MacPorts, Fink or Brew etc. Should we be packaging this as a framework, albeit a simple one? What do Mac users (and Mac app programmers) prefer or expect when using shared libraries these days? Thanks, Bruce.
