How do you START a C++ project in Xcode?

without a gui (terminal tool) just select c tool or C++ tool

Cocoa for something with gui

execute it with a "./whatever the heck your app name is" in the terminal, after cding into you directory.

Blorx, you have a teach yourself book on the subject.. why don't you teach yourself?

lol wouldn't let me the first time either... oh well, you don't have to use terminal to execute it, you can just click it

It teaches you using a windows compiler (meaning the instructions for compiling, etc. are using that program) So, I needed a Mac compiler which, it said I could use, just...without a step by step "thing"

btw most pc books will tell you just to write

cout<<"stuff"<<endl;

in xcode you must write

std::cout<<"stuff"<<endl;

That's what it makes me do.

what, xcode? that means it's working

Blorx · Post by **Blorx** » Thu Feb 10, 2005 6:53 pm

No, the book! It makes me do the "std::cout" thing.
