Sounds like there is an upgrade bug somewhere. In any case you should just remove the "$(value) " part from "Product Name". That should fix the problem.

Scott,

I filed a bug (4145571), but I think I see the problem. Somehow, a space is being inserted before the name of the bundle, executable and resource file during the build. The Product Name in the upgraded project file is "$(value) BasicDataBrowser". The $(value) is also listed in the Symbol Ordering Flags. I did as you suggested. When I put those in the Info-BasicDataBrower.plist file, I end up with "$(value) BasicDataBrowser" in the plist file of the built application. I have also looked through the XCode project file. I don't see where any spaces are being inserted before project name. Weird.

Thanks for your help,
Steve

This usually indicates that there is a mismatch between the "Product Name" and the data in the Info.plist. The best way to fix this is to use macro expansion in the Info.plist (and yes, we'll be updating templates and examples to do this in a future version of the tools).

In the Info.plist set CFExecutableName to "$(EXECUTABLE_NAME)" and CFBundleName to "$(PRODUCT_NAME)". This should fix your problem and also make it very easy to change the name of the application per configuration.

If that doesn't work, please file a bug and include the project with it and we can take a look.

I didn't see this in the archives and it seems rather unusual.

The BasicDataBrowser sample code in the /Developer/Examples/ Carbon folder will build but there are some strange results. Double clicking the app icon will result in a message about the app being damaged or incomplete. Using the Build and Go function in XCode 2.1 Will launch the app in the background without the app icon showing up in the Dock. The process is listed via the Activity Monitor application, but it has limited functionality. You can't bring the app to the foreground (it launched in the background). You also can not scroll the window that appears and you cannot select the DataBrowser columns by clicking on the column heading.

There is also some string handling that isn't functional. BasicDataBrowser is still using Str255 in a couple of functions instead of CFString. Disabling/commenting-out the code so that it isn't used or called does not help at all.

All of this works with XCode 2.0. I'm using XCode 2.1. I've tried it with and without the 10.4 SDK with the same results. I guess the strangest thing to me is that the app launches with the window in the background and never seems to act like a full application (no Dock icon, not selectable via cmd-tab app switching).

Note: I have XCode 2.0 on another system (10.4.x) and it builds and runs fine. My XCode 2.1 system is running 10.4.1.

Thanks,
Steve
