the C file which contains the two buffers are from a third party and cannot be changed - I can see the code, but can't change it... sort of an SDK. Does this mean there are no options left? If so, I'll need to raise it as an issue with the third party in the hope they will change the source code to cater for Xcode :-/

May I suggest you not specifically mention Xcode? There are people who take pride in punishing what they see as Apple weirdness. Better that than take trouble correcting their code, or worse, admit their code needs correcting.


Rather, ask them to change the source code:

- To "cater" to gcc, a common and standard compiler.
- To "cater" to standard, portable C.

You have a portability problem, not an Xcode problem. You need a bug fix, not a privilege.
