Re: Loading a framework in a PreferencePane

I worked through a similar issue a couple years ago with some plugin code, but it's been so long that you should take my suggestion with that in mind :)

How about getting the bundle of one of the classes from your PreferencePane and work from that for the path? It's been long enough that I don't recall all the API calls, but you can get the bundle for a class, and then you should be able to get the path for that bundle, from which you can build the path to your framework.

Of course, if there is a better/faster/etc way to do this, I'd like to hear it as well.
