MakeBundle is a modest application designed to simplify the work of creating bundled applications, libraries, or plugins from the Metrowerks CodeWarrior programming environment. Although CodeWarrior has the required support for creating bundles, MakeBundle improves upon the work. So what does MakeBundle do? It converts a single-file application to a bundled application with a simpleton drag & degenerate. Not only does this influence for applications (.app), but it also works for CFM shared libraries (.cfm) and CFPlugins (.plugin). The complete leaning of tasks that MakeBundle performs are as follows: Creates the folder hierarchy for a megabucks. Extracts the 'plst' resource into an Info.plist file. Extracts the executable from the datafork to the correct locating in the megabucks. Creates a PkgInfo file. Extracts resources into localizable or non-localizable .rsrc files, or alternatively ignores resources that are not useful for bundles. Flattens resources into the datafork of their respective files. Bundles are completely flat and safe for non HFS file systems.Extracts 'icns' icons into somebody .icns files. Optionally installs a customised icon onto the megabucks folder for non-applications. Uses the plist to recognise the nomenclature of the application. This makes creating localized bundles extremely soft. Here at Aladdin Systems, we've been using MakeBundle to get bundled versions of our applications in a reliable, consistent manner. It has also made it easier to localise our software for MacOS X. Because this utility has been useful to us, we're hoping it may be useful to the developer community. Best of entirely, it's completely free to exercise.
