[CMake] fixup_bundle, shared libs and Plugins

[Michael Jackson]

CMake 2.8.3, OS X 10.6.6, Makefiles

I am attempting to use fixup_bundle() to create my OS X app bundle. The issue I am running into is that under a certain case some common libraries that get built by the project are not being resolved correctly. Here goes the explanation:

I have a project "IPHelper.app". Part of the project is building 2 shared libraries, MXADataModel and AIMLib. I also use some of the Qt Imageformat plugins and I build my own Qt Plugins for the application.

So, I use fixup_bundle (from a .cmake file that gets configured). I have a list of the plugins (both mine and Qt's image formats) that gets passed in. I also have a list of directories to search for libraries.

Here is the snippet of CMake code:
fixup_bundle("${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/IPHelperApp.app" 
             # Plugins to Install
             "${PLUGIN_LIST}"
             # Directories to Search for Libraries
"/Users/mjackson/Workspace/IPHelper/Build/Bin;/Users/Shared/Toolkits/Qt-4.6.2-Cocoa/bin;/Users/Shared/Toolkits/Qt-4.6.2-Cocoa/lib;/Users/Shared/Toolkits/Qt-4.6.2-Cocoa/plugins/imageformats")

If I run "make install" I will get all the plugins but NONE of the libraries (MXADataModel and AIMLib) copied or fixed up. 

If I run "make install" where the ${PLUGIN_LIST} variable is actually blank then I get the libraries (MXADataModel and AIMLib) to resolve, copy and get fixed up, but obviously none of the plugins. I am not sure if I am doing something wrong, there is a bug in BundleUtilities or what.

Some output from the first run where I have a plugin list with some status output enabled from BundleUtilities.cmake:

-- 7/20: copying '@executable_path/../lib/libAIMLib.dylib'
-- key='libAIMLib_dylib'
-- item='@executable_path/../lib/libAIMLib.dylib'
-- resolved_item='@executable_path/../lib/libAIMLib.dylib'
-- default_embedded_path='@executable_path/../lib'
-- embedded_item='@executable_path/../lib/libAIMLib.dylib'
-- resolved_embedded_item='/Users/Shared/Toolkits/IPHelper/IPHelperApp.app/Contents/lib/libAIMLib.dylib'
-- copyflag='1'
-- 
Error copying file "@executable_path/../lib/libAIMLib.dylib" to "/Users/Shared/Toolkits/IPHelper/IPHelperApp.app/Contents/lib/libAIMLib.dylib".


and here is output from the second run:
-- 4/10: copying '/Users/mjackson/Workspace/IPHelper/Build/Bin/libAIMLib.dylib'
-- key='libAIMLib_dylib'
-- item='libAIMLib.dylib'
-- resolved_item='/Users/mjackson/Workspace/IPHelper/Build/Bin/libAIMLib.dylib'
-- default_embedded_path='@executable_path/../lib'
-- embedded_item='@executable_path/../lib/libAIMLib.dylib'
-- resolved_embedded_item='/Users/Shared/Toolkits/IPHelper/IPHelperApp.app/Contents/lib/libAIMLib.dylib'
-- copyflag='1'

I have no idea what is going on and would appreciate any enlightening thoughts. Maybe I am just not using fixup_bundle correctly.

The source is located at http://scm.bluequartz.net/eim/iphelper on the "user_init" branch. 

Thanks
