Linking errors in upgrading to 2.2

cocos2d-x C++
#1

The other day I decided to upgrade from 2.0 to 2.2. However during compilation I got a whole lot of linking errors. I /thought/ I fixed them all (since it was failing on Box2D) but then it started to fail in finding cocos2dx. Even though it previously passed….

I would like to also mention that HelloCPP, cocos2dx, extensions, CocosDenshion and Box2D compile fine on their own. Any help would be appreciated.

The exact errors are the following:

#2

100% sure you don’t have any stale object files hanging around?

This “Even though it previously passed….” always makes me think about dangling binary objects.

#3

I tried a build clean of everything….
I’ll try again though, this time deleting the libraries and object files

EDIT::

So I went an cleaned everything and made sure there were no libraries or objects files left and it gave the same result.

#4

Hi,

In build setting/search Paths/library seach Paths check below path is added:
“$(SRCROOT)/…/…/…/…/CocosDenshion/third_party/blackberry/libraries/armle-v7”
“$(SRCROOT)/…/…/…/…/CocosDenshion/third_party/blackberry/libraries/x86”
“$(SRCROOT)/…/…/…/…/cocos2dx/platform/third_party/ios/libraries”

#5

@Tian: I’m not quite sure why including an IOS library would make it work for BB?

Also update:
TestCPP compiles fine.
I copied the linking settings exactly for my own project; still fails.

#6

Update:

I ended up just taking a copy of the TestCpp, renaming it, and replacing the classes, resources and bar-descriptor with my own.

It compiles now.
