Disclaimer; this is a cross platform tool that isn't being installed in the traditional manner; instead it's being launched directly out of an unzipped zip. Tested on Mojave and YosemiteLanguage: C++Compiler: clang Built system: CMakeEssentially, a lot of times, after the app is unzipped and launched, say in ~/Downloads/myApp-R123/myapp.app , when I check to see what it thinks is the exe path is using _NSGetExecutablePath(); It'll report back that it's in a /private/var/folders prefixed path, as opposed to the anticpated ~/Downloads/myApp-R123.Where it first becomes interesting is if I move the unzipped folder to another locations (ie, ~/random/myApp-R123 ) it will often then correctly report, but, the real twister is, if I move it back to the ~/Downloads/myApp-R123 it remains working and reporting the correct/anticipated path.My question is; is there some manner of virtual filesystem going on here?If this is a vfs situation, Is there something in the Info.plist I can add to prevent that? Is there a proper way to unzip to ensure it doesn't behave this way?Regards,Paul.
