[MacRuby-devel] BridgeSupport Requirement

[Laurent Sansonetti]

Hi Martin,

There is a way: if you copy the .bridgesupport files of your system inside your application's bundle, under the Resources/BridgeSupport directory, MacRuby should look at them in priority.

Examples:

	Foo.app/Contents/Resources/BridgeSupport/Foundation.bridgesupport
	Foo.app/Contents/Resources/BridgeSupport/AppKit.bridgesupport
	etc.

I think we should add an option to macruby_deploy to automate this. Could you file a ticket?
