There are no good instructions for installing cocos2d for iPhone on the mac.
I downloaded the current build from git, a folder called "cocos2d-iphone-0.99.1". i put this folder in /Developer/Libary. Q: is this right?
I tried running the file called "install_template.sh". it said the templates were already installed.
Instead, I manually dragged the templates folders where they belong, and they ~do~ appear in the XCode's "New Project" dialog.
When I create a new cocos2d project, I see all these red links for project files, instead of the regular black links. When I try to open them in the finder, nothing happens.
I can tell that something is not linked. Can someone please help walk me through this?
Thanks!
To install the templates, these instructions worked for me. You can see them here. Otherwise you can just download the library and use it. No install is really needed.
You also need to add the cocos2d files to your project in Xcode.

A few months ago, I inherited a C++ command-line XCode project that I've since turned into an app with a GUI, but XCode won't build it as an .app bundle:
Instead, XCode builds a Debug folder, which, interestingly enough, works as an app if I copy it and rename it to "[Bundle Display Name].app".
There are two problems with this though:
(1) I have to manually do this for each build
(2) It doesn't link to my Assets.xcassets file containing my app icons or my Info.plist file or any of the other resources I need.
I've scoured Apple's XCode documentation and come up with nothing. Are there any XCode veterans who know the solution?
EDIT: It seems like the only solution is to add a script to the Build Rules to manually change the Debug directory to an .app and structure it properly. The problem I'm now having is that my app doesn't see my .icns file unless the absolute path is hardcoded into the Info.plist file. For example:
<key>CFBundleIconFile</key>
<string>AppIcon.icns</string>
^This doesn't work
<key>CFBundleIconFile</key>
<string>/Users/.../build/Control Cam.app/Contents/Resources/AppIcon.icns</string>
^This works. But of course it can't find the icon anymore if I move the app to a different folder. Any ideas how to get it to use relative path names?
i want to edit cpp files in Eclipse but can't open the folder that contains the cpp files.
The folder symbol is a folder with an exclamation mark at the bottom right. I tried to look up the meaning of the symbol in the eclipse docs but didnt find something. Maybe a bit more background: the cpp files belong to a cocos2d-x application, eclipse cdt is installed. The files are normally accessible with notepad++ or any other texteditor but eclipse just doesn't list them. Refresh, clean or restart didnt help either. Maybe you guys can help me out.
The esclamation Mark deals with build path problem. This problem are usually related with eclipse metadata, probably rebuilding the Index Will fix it, but the easiest thing is delete the project (without deleting from disk) and import the project using import existing project into workspace. Male a backup before any operation.
Found the problem, a little fault in the path, edited the folder properties now everything works!
I'm trying to start development with opencv. The problem is, until now I coul barely setup the opencv cos I cant find its header files.
I made some research regarding to this subject but none of them were realy helpful, below some of the links:
Where are the opencv2 include files?
http://answers.opencv.org/question/14712/opencvhpp-not-in-opencv2/
I made the built the files using CMAKE GUI - Built the code with MVS 11 x64 both debug and release. The compilation suceeded and I cant found libs and dlls, but no headers at all anywhere.
Checkout the pics:
Opencv2 folder
Local folder
So, now I ask, What am I missing here?
Thanks for the help
EDIT ONE:
Is that what you meant?
EDIT TWO:
I found some headers inside the source of opencv, and each of them is inside an specific folder, like core, highgui and so on - that is it? or something still wrong? cos I thought I should take the headers on the build, no on the source..
append "opencv/build/include" to your include path.
if you built the opencv libraries yourself using cmake, make sure you run the INSTALL project, and add the folder, where it installed to.
When you run make install then the include files that you need are copied to a single directory determined by the makefiles and probably displayed as a part of the output.
I know what's going on. After built the entire solution, under the "opencv" solution strcutre, there is a folder called "CMakeTargets", expand this folder, you can see "INSTALL" project, and right-click this project, then select "build" option, then after installation, all libraries and head files will be located at the correct path. Like the following picture shows:
here
Take a look at the settings that were in use when you built OpenCV - the include path must point to where the include files are for your build to have succeeded.
I have made a simple program with NetBeans in C++, now that is finished I would like to use it outside the IDE, how should I proceed? I have been looking around but didn't get anything clear. Should I make an installer? (its not such a big program so I dont know if just the exe could work - although I have found none in the project directory)
Thankyou very much in advance :-)
Especially if you have a small project, NetBeans packing options are very useful.
To create a package:
Right click on your Project -> More Build Commands -> Build Package
To configure what has to go into your package and what not, you can customize it here:
Right click on your Project -> Properties -> Packaging
Make sure you have libs, required files etc. selected in Packing Files, so everything that's required by your application is together.
Note: Per default, a Tar-Archive is used, Zip, RPM, Debian Packages and some more are possible too.
I've searched this for a while and haven't found anything answered anywhere:
I have a project in QtCreator that has no compilation errors, and runs fine as a normal C++ project in Eclipse.
However, when I try to run it as a Qt app, it says it could not find an executable and I need to specify one.
As many other sites have suggested, I have searched the directories for the .exe that QtCreator was supposed to make (according to the other sites), but I am yet to find anything.
I'm in no rush, but have spent a long time on this and would like to move on to actually writing the Qt part.
Thanks in advance.
Are you still struggling with the solution ? The most easy solution is, restore default setting by deleting file QtCreator.ini. After that configure project once again by giving build directory path. If you are working on Linux system, run following command to find QtCreator.ini file.
$ locate QtCreator.ini
It will give ouput like this
/home/tan/.config/QtProject/QtCreator.ini
Then delete the file on obtained path using following command
$ sudo rm -f /home/tan/.config/QtProject/QtCreator.ini
Now open project once again and configure with your desired build and run settings.
Upvote if above solution helps you. Btw if I've made any grammatical mistakes, I am sorry for my english. :)
Best luck !!
I'm not sure I understand what you mean by having a QtCreator project and running it in Eclipse or running it as a Qt App but if you are looking for an exe file, QtCreator is probably configured to do shadow builds for your project. This means that build output is sent to a directory outside of your project source directory. If your project is in a directory called MyApp, then look for a directory beside it called MyApp-build-desktop. You should find your executable in there.
