Hello,
I'm new on this list so I will describe myself a little ;) I come the
Windows world, programming with Visual Studio 6, I like mostly graphics
programming (2D, 3D) but I am very interested too in GUI programming
(specially when the API is good).
I would like some help for my transition from Visual Studio to XCode. I
am a bit confused about the project management system.
I tried to build a C++ project using a lib of a friend, and ran into
troubles. I will describe what I've done, so you can see if I made
something wrong :D
- I started by making a new project (BSD Static Library) for the
library (http://psydk.org/dkstd).
- First use, first problem, the lib did not build because it contains a
Math.h file. It seems to be a known bug and I found that header map
file considered the project directory as an include directory (bad boy)
and the solution was to deactivate the use of header map file.
- I had to make some modifications to the lib so it can build on Mac OS
(little modifications ^^)
- And I got a nice libdkstd.a (Yeah !)
Now what ?
- I created a project (C++ Tool as I only need command line) and
started to wonder how I could make it depend on the library. On Visual
C++, I was used to adding the library project into the workspace,
specifying a dependence with the program, so I was able to debug both
anytime.
- I decided to go another way, and to work without dependencies
(sadly), so I configured the search path, I included the libdkstd.a as
a library into my program target, and boom, build failed. It could not
build the libstdc++ ! Actually, I never asked for this library, as it
is not part a standard library.
So after all of these little frustrations, someone to help me find my
way into the XCode maze ?
