Hi everyone,
Just as a heads up: try to avoid spaces in your paths and
configuration names. I know it may be awkward having to do this on
a Mac in 2005, but the gods of Unix demand it. I just stumbled over
another case where Xcode 2.2 refused to build because I had a space
in the name of my hard drive (bug has been filed, #4377118). So,
save yourself some headaches and avoid any spaces in paths in the
post-FSSpec world.
I haven't had too many problems, and frequently pass around paths
such as
"\"/CodeGen/Games/Lose Checkers\""
note my solution of quotes. You can also us "\ ", but I prefer the
quotes, as you can then take paths that are given to you by the
system. ie, calls like getwd don't use \ in front of a space (I don't
think). if you put quotes around your file names, you don't have to
worry about it.
I realize that you're talking about a slightly different problem, but
that's my two cents.
