.plugins file not searched for in ParaView.app/Contents/Support on Mac OS X
This issue was created automatically from an original Mantis Issue. Further discussion may take place here.
When creating a DragNDrop installer on Mac OS X, the bundle generation script (configured from Applications/ParaView/CreateBundle.sh.in) copies the .plugins file to ParaView.app/Contents/Support. However, in the ParaView application, the Support directory is never searched when looking for the .plugins file.
The solution is to either:
1). modify the CreateBundle.sh.in to copy the .plugins file into the ParaView.app/Contents/Plugins directory
or
2). add the Support directory as a search path in vtkPVPluginTracker.cxx, lines 87-88.
I'm in favor of solution 1 so that the Support directory can be done away with altogether.
