XCode - stalls on repeat builds....

[Lindon]

Honestly I would happily strangle the people involved in the MacOS development....

So I build HISE, I load projuicer, save and open compiler, Xcode opens, a set the scheme coorrectly, and run a build for profiling.....

.. I wait and eventually I get a HISE build..... I go look at it in Finder...and it says its a build from yesterday..... does anyone know how to make MacOS report the modified date and time correctly?????

I decide to change a setting in the pre-processors... close XCode, I close Projuicer, I reopen projuicer make may change and save and reopen the compiler, I run the compile again and it tells me it is completing step 6 of 133 and then hangs there......and does not move on.....

Sorry to put this in General Questions, I couldn't find the "Complaining about MacOS" section...

Nope, it's a long standing Finder bug that I never found a solution for. Probably have to refresh a cache or something but I didn't look very deeply into it.

Try cleaning the build after making your changes in Projucer, might help...

@Lindon I have experienced similar situations too.

Downloading the Hise repository again and changing the name of the Hise-develop folder, solves the problem.

Yes it seems it is a cache problem

@Lindon I find deleting the build (not Builds!) folder usually fixes this. Then I'll get the proper timestamps on both Debug/HISE Debug.app and Release/HISE.app

Projects > standalone > Builds > MacOSX > builds (delete this folder)

Also, sometimes Xcode builds HISE and the app size is around 100KB so I assume it failed but when I double click the HISE app it opens properly. Very strange.
