Make sure that you use a development build. You might also want to make sure that there's no optimization done by gcc.

Hi Emmanuel,

Thanks for the post, definitely doing a dev build with no optimisation.

I am going to try to set a project up from scratch and not based on the example code to see if I can get that going.

Cheers

Hi,

Made a project from scratch and debugging works fine!

Strange.

Thanks for the help

Andy

Sometimes this can happen if the executable is set up and then the path to executable changes.

YMMV, Tim

Also try this.. first put a breakpoint directly in the main function... I often find that if I don't do this all my break point are ignored.. But if I put a breakpoint first in the main then all my other break point works...

I hope it help!

Do any of you guys know why I have no options, when I choose Project->Set Active Executable from the menu? I have put it on development build as you suggest, but nothing pops up

go in Project->New Custom Executable and choose Max/MSP Runtime aa

That did the trick. Thanks Andrea!

Hi,

1) I'am learning to write externals using Xcode 3.22 on Snow Leopard. When build an object from the example folder (SDK 5.1.1) all seems to be fine. No messages error. 2) Then I've upload the file path from Max to the SDK Exmaples Folder, 3) When I try to load the new object, typing from Max, it appears from the autocomplete, 4) When it must be instanced by Max I receive from the Max windows the message: newobj bang: No such object. 5) I get always the same problem for any new object

Unfortunalty there are not examples on how to setup Xcode 3.22 on the web for Max externals so I'm blocked on this simple level.

Thanks.
