Linker errors in 3.6 [Solved]

cocos2d-x C++
1

Trying to update from 3.x to 3.6.
On a Mac
I use a Symbolic Link to point to the cocos2d library.
So, removed and recreated the link, now pointing to 3.6
Build
I get errors:

Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64:

I don’t really have a clue what to do :frowning:

Immediate help is appreciated (e.g. “just do his”) but I would also be interested in what steps I shuld take to find out what is wrong when this happens.

thanks

** OK - you guys were too slow so I fixed it myself :smile:

I don’t actually know for sure what the problem was, but one thing I found was that I needed to close XCode completely then re-open before it took the symlink changes into effect.
So at one time, for example, I had it pointing to cocos2d3.4, closed XCode (but not completely closed) then deleted and recreated the symlink to point at cocos2d3.6, but when I opened XCode the files it was showing were still the 3.4 ones!

Anyhoo- all seems to be well with the 3.6 world now!
