Where to store a bundled binary if submitting to the Mac App Store

Okay; slow your horses…

  1. Correct location is either /Contents/Helpers or /Contents/MacOS.
  2. When you submit your app to the App Store, you’ll have to sambox the Application and at that point you can’t use Shell to launch a nested executable. You’ll need to use NSTask code, either from the Sandbox kit, MBS or some other code.
