Did you mean: 

framework location lost if the app name is changed - LV 8.2 / Mac

when building an application with interface builder, I noticed that changing the name of the application caused a problem :
the vi which need a framework don't find it until you point at it manually

is there a way to indicate programaticaly where is this framework (always in the support file of the app)

thanks for your help

Do you have to point to the framework again when you are actually building the application or when you are running it?  It's a little unclear where exactly the error is occurring.  However, I think you have a couple of options here.

One option is to use the Call Library Function Node in your code.  The Shared Library Import Wizard (new to 8.20) is described in this tutorial.

There is also an option to create a Universal Binary application or framework, which is detailed in this KB.

I hope this helps.  Please post back if this did not answer your question.

no this is just when running the application
and i didn't created the framework
I just use the lvsound.framework with the LV sound in /out vi

if you build an application with for example this LV sound vi,
this application works.
just rename the application and the link to the framework is lost
this can be annoying if the user decide to change the name (it can happen to differentiate some versions of the same application
