Added some C++ to Torque, Mac builds no executables now!

#1 Anyone have an idea what might cause this? I'm sort of at a standstill until I overcome this issue.

I would expect some symbols to be missing if my code were needed but the .o's were not found. But there are no error messages listed -- and no executable created.

#2 Beats me :-/

#3 This happened to me about a year ago. In the end, I had to revert to an older project file, delete the build/ folder, and try again.

check the copy phases of the target
revert to an old project file & see what happens
check the console for errors pb/xcode neglected to print.

#4 Ok .. I reverted to the basic Rel1.2 project and advanced until I had the problem again. The issue appears to arise only when I add my static library (libspeex.a) to the project -- in a manner analogous to libogg.a and libvorbis.a (or so I believe, having checked their settings).

Is there something I may have done wrong in preparing libspeex.a ? It worked fine in a sample Carbon app I coded before trying to work it into the Torque demo, so I believe it is a valid library. But perhaps I need a dynamically linked library?

For reference, I also tried this under Xcode, and it at least reported a build failure, albeit without further data on why. If it helps, this was the linking command that Xcode gave when it failed (below). I worry that although it twice included reference to my -L directory for libspeex.a , itg does not reference the library file itself. Ideas?

#5 Oh I should add that the console is showing no errors -- thanks for that tip!

#6 As it so often happens, this issue just resolved itself. Gremlins seem the likely cause, but I am also bringing some pixies in for routine questioning.

#7 I have found that when it comes to libraries, Xcode seems just filled with gremlins. :-/

Glad you got your problem fixed, though.
