Creating a standalone on MacOS 10.12 with LC 8.1.3, LiveCode puts the file "revsecurity.dylib" into "my.app/Contents/MacOS/" As you say, this would be against the rules of Apple. Is this a bug? Or is it still arbitrary, where to put your files? Tiemo

Landman Gay <jac...@hyperactivesw.com> Betreff: Re: where does the standalonebuilder saves the substacks in an Mac OS App? I think that's right, Apple enforces this rule. The standalone builder will move files to a Resources folder when it builds the app. For backward compatibility, scripts that reference the engine folder are redirected to the Resources folder automatically.
