ERROR: Cycle inside a single target

[Morphoice]

@d-healey I need the latest version for other work

[d.healey]

@Morphoice Ah fair enough. Are you building the develop branch? Are there any other errors reported after BUILD FAILED?

[Morphoice]

@d-healey yes its the develop branch, no other errors as I can see

[d.healey]

@Morphoice And you only have one copy of the HISE source on your system?

[Morphoice]

@d-healey yes sir

[d.healey]

hmm, I'm out of suggestions then...

[ustk]

@Morphoice Are you building for Profiling? This should be the way to build for release

Parallelise build is the equivalent of "Dependency Order" in the "Build" menu of the Edit Scheme window.

[Morphoice]

@ustk how do I set this? there is no edit scheme window. in hise, it just opens a terminal window and starts compiling when I want to compile a vst

Unless you've specifically enabled a debug build - which you haven't, you don't need to worry about this. It's more applicable when building HISE itself.

Have you tried compiling your project directly in xcode rather than letting HISE handle it? You can open the auto generated juicer file in your project's Binaries folder in Projucer and open it in xcode just like when building HISE. You might get a different result, or more info about the issue.

[ustk]

@Morphoice It's when you compile from XCode directly.
This issue might be a particularity of Sequoia or latest XCode

in your project folder /Binaries/Builds/MacOSX you'll find the .xcodeprof file which you can open.

Then in XCode check for Product=>Scheme=>Edit Scheme then what I said above.

Then build with Product=>Build For=>Profiling

Not sure it can help but it's worth checking

@Morphoice In case you didn't know - you can have multiple versions of Xcode installed at the same time.

[Morphoice]

@d-healey same error inside xcode... tried build for profiling, build for run, all failed

[Morphoice]

@dannytaurus did not know that indeed. im trying to get an older one installed

[d.healey]

@Morphoice Is your project called UNSTABLE?

Did you try cleaning the build folder?

[Morphoice]

@d-healey yes sir, both.

[Morphoice]

@dannytaurus so when I try to install xcode 15.4. or any earlier version than 16 (current) this is what I get:

[d.healey]

@Morphoice Did you try downloading from here? https://xcodereleases.com/

[Morphoice]

@d-healey said in ERROR: Cycle inside a single target:

Xcode Releases

More than you ever wanted to know™

xcodereleases.com (xcodereleases.com)

yes that's exactly where I got them from

I'm back to being out of ideas then.

[dannytaurus]

@Morphoice Not sure why you're seeing that.

You don't really 'install' Xcode from the https://xcodereleases.com site.

You download a xip file and unpack it, which gives you an Xcode.app application.

Drop that in your Applications folder and you should be good to go.

I have 15.2 and 16.0 installed. I kept 15.2 named as 'Xcode' so it launches as the default and renamed 16.0 to 'Xcode 16' so I can launch it specifically when I need to.

(I have no idea why 15.2 is 12GB and 16 is 2GB. Maybe some resources are shared?)
