Re: loadlib for Mac OS X

["Dario Accornero" <adario@...>]

Ahem, no, please do *not* force us to link against the AppKit.  Many 
applications are Cocoa-free and want to stay that way.

IMHO you should instead look into something which is a little bit more 
low-level, relying only on Core Foundation so it's accessible from both 
Carbon and Cocoa applications.  You might want to start from:

http://developer.apple.com/documentation/DeveloperTools/Conceptual/MachORuntime/Overview/chapter_2_section_4.html

In particular, the low-level APIs seem well suited for something like 
loadlib.

Just my 0.02 Euros,
Dario
