OK I get it, in my case the app built by RB must be in the same folder as the built plugin (in my case in .../REALbasic 5.5.x Mac OS X/Plugins/). Now CW will launch my built app, but does not break at any of the breakpoints in my plugin source.

Still no dice,

Still confused.  My plugin is built to:

(as is most people's I expect, so the RB app can build and run right after the plugin is recompiled w/o having to move it into RB Plugins folder every time). So where exactly must the REALbasic application reside for this to work, assuming my plugin itself is built straight to RB's plugins folder:
- in RB's Plugins folder?
- next to my CW plugin project?
- next to my built app?

In fact, if the host app in CW is set to .../myBuiltApp what does the REALbasic application have to do with anything in the first place? Won't CW just launch myBuiltApp and break in the plugin source, with no involvement of the REALbasic application?

Thx again, i hope I'm getting closer...

Sorry, yes. The application must be in output folder (determined by Target Settings). So, by default, the REALbasic application must be next to your plugin's project, unless you changed where it is built to.

HTH,
