Hi Jens,

Here is the error output from Xcode, after renaming the NSPreferencePane subclass to “.mm”
Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64:
  "_OBJC_CLASS_$_NSPreferencePane", referenced from:
      _OBJC_CLASS_$_TestPane in TestPane.o
  "_OBJC_METACLASS_$_NSPreferencePane", referenced from:
      _OBJC_METACLASS_$_TestPane in TestPane.o
ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)


bob.

However, Apple didn’t mention anything about C++ in an NSPreferencePane object.
After some experimenting, I discovered that if I created a new wrapper class for my C++ code, I could compile a plugin.
It appears that changing your NSPreferencePane subclass from a Obj-C object to an Obj-C++ object will break Xcode.

That’s pretty bizarre; switching to Obj-C++ shouldn’t make a difference. What exactly are the link errors you got when using a .mm file?
