DSCLoadDeps
Description
Open a picker dialog that loads the selected images plus their dependencies. The dialog lets you cap the recursion depth and individually include or exclude specific dependencies.
Available from the DSC Index context menu, under Load.
The "Load > Selection with dependencies..." entry in the DSC Index context menu
The dependencies picker dialog
The dialog is split into two lists:
Source images (top) — the images selected from the DSC Index when the action was triggered. They feed the dependency computation; on their own they do not drive what gets loaded.
Full list of images to load (bottom) — the source images plus their dependencies, computed at the depth set by the Dependency depth spin box. Each row shows the image's address (where it will be loaded in the database), its size, and its current state (Loaded if it is already in the database).
What ultimately gets loaded is the set of checked entries in this bottom list. Use the top list to seed; tweak the bottom list — depth, individual checkboxes — to fine-tune what lands in the database.
The same dialog is used by From external Mach-O..., where the source images come from the load commands of an off-cache Mach-O instead of from the DSC Index selection.
