'z_libpd.h' file not found (OS X 10.10)

Upon opening the supplied .jucer in the zip file in ProJucer, the Build panel gives the error:

'z_libpd.h' file not found

Wonder if this is because my OS is supposedly 64-bit and the supplied libpd is 32-bit?

The paths may be wrong as well.

[logsol]

which branch are you on? I would recommend v0.2.0

[mavavilj]

master

[mavavilj]

v0.2.0 gives the exact same error, when opening the .jucer.

[logsol]

if you open the introjucer, load the jucer file and navigate to config > Xcode > Debug you can see some paths under "Header search paths" the z_libpd.h file resides in the ../../../libpd/libpd_wrapper folder. Make sure that is the case and then click on save and open in IDE.

[mavavilj]

Are you sure the paths are correct?

The paths are (checked in Finder):

Pd-Pulp-0.2.0/FX/PdPulpFX.jucer Pd-Pulp-0.2.0/libpd/z_libpd.h

[mavavilj]

It seems that the Xcode project doesn't give the error. Only Projucer, when building the .jucer.

[logsol]

hmm well I actually use the Introjucer... And I think the paths are relative from the xcode project

[mavavilj]

I've tried changing the paths.

It simply doesn't find it. Odd.

[mavavilj]

OK so I changed

#include "z_libpd.h" to #include "../../libpd/libpd_wrapper/z_libpd.h" in PdBase.hpp.

And now it finds it.

Wonder what's wrong with the paths then. Because what I added there is the same exact path as in the Config.

#include "../libpd/libpd_wrapper/z_libpd.h" also works. (???)

[logsol]

have you tried simply using the introjucer? you can find it under juce/extras/Introjucer and you just need to open in your IDE and build it

[mavavilj]

Wait, how?

There's a Introjucer.jucer, which opens Introjucer in Projucer. What do you mean by opening it in IDE and building it?

[logsol]

Follow these steps:

• download or clone JUCE
• move into the directory JUCE/extras/Introjucer/Builds/MacOSX and open the Xcode project there
• if you are on Windows you should use VisualStudio respectively
• In the IDE build the Introjucer
• now you have an Introjucer.app with which you can manage the PdPulp .jucer files

Note: The Pd Pulp project is from a time before the Projucer has been released.. And as far as I know its full usage is restricted to commercial licences.

Check out the answer by jules: http://www.juce.com/forum/topic/h-files-found-equivalent-xcode-project-not-projucer

That implies that the paths are set wrong.

[mavavilj]

However, I've now built Introjucer. And since it doesn't have the "live building" feature, then this approach might work, because now Xcode will be resolving the paths, not JUCE.

[logsol]

Does this work now?

[mavavilj]

I think the problem is still existing.

I got around it by building libpd from scratch (as described here: https://github.com/libpd/libpd/wiki/Working-with-libpd-in-Xcode#details) in order to use in the WDL-OL port I'm doing.

[mavavilj]

I think that (if you have time) if you built it for your project the same way, then it might be error-free. Since following the directions given in that page gives a pretty solid way to build libpd, one does not need to specify paths manually. It's all contained in the .xcodeproj.

cheers for sharing that information

[mavavilj]

I also added libpd as a git submodule (it was advised by the libpd developer). That way updating libpd is easier.
