xcodes update

by Anthony Green · in Torque 2D Beginner · 03/11/2014 (11:35 am) · 4 replies

I was working on a game for a game jam that needed a C++ class. Anyway, everything was working and compiling fine last night and earlier today. I've been debugging possible things but I think maybe the XCode update messed something? Everything compiles fine in Windows.

Can anyone confirm this? I have no idea why an update would break the code. I even downloaded a fresh version of Torque to make sure it wasn't me, or at the very least the code I added.

Basically, there's a bunch of places where bools are returned when that isn't the specified return type. I tested this in g++ which only generates a warning for this type of thing. Does anyone have any idea how to make XCodes just compile through it?

Thanks
Tony

The compiler changed under build settings. I don't know why that would have happened or what it was set to before but changing the language dialect fixed the problem.

I also had an issue with the latest XCode 5.1. My issue was that the latest version added the arm64 as a Valid Architectures in the Build Settings. Having this causes a huge amount of errors since pointers now get passed around as 64-bit values which was a mismatch against the U32 casts. Removing the arm64 from the architectures list fixed this issue.

Are you using the master or development branch code Gary? In the dev branch, we've included 64-bit support. It would be interesting to hear if you can build a 64-bit or universal binary for iOS without too much trouble.

I've been running a native 64-bit T2D app for several weeks now on OSX. No complaints so far.

@Tony - sorry I missed your post last week. Looks like you saw the changes I've made for the development branch to fix any issues with Xcode 5.1 though.

@Mike - no this was the current mainline build. I'll be switching over to the dev branch here shortly. Just didn't want to port over my changes at that moment (especially as I need to figure out what I really need since I was doing a lot of experimentation).
