Hi,

I am working on an application which is loaded at System preferences.
Basically this application is build for 32 bit arch, which i am converting it to work for both 32 and 64. After building for x86_64 arch, I have installed the application is Snow leopard (Seed 314). Here when i try to open the application from preference pane.. I am getting below error,

"Preference Error - Could not load xxxx preference pane"

Please find the console log message below..

Since your talking about Snow Leopard, you must be either on ADC Select or Full membership, in which case you should be posting this into mailing lists for Snow Leopard at Apple. They will answer your question.

Details of how to join these mailing lists will be in XCode and also included with your Snow Leopard seed on ADC.

Seems to be unhappy about garbage collection (GC). Perhaps the Preference Pane hosting app (System Preferences) is built without garbage collection turned on?
