Did you try selecting “Clean All” from the Build menu? ---

I’ve got the same issue here on Windows 10 and JUCE v5.1.1 … I’ve tried “Clean All” but it didn’t help. Any ideas? ---

What version of Visual Studio do you have installed? ---

Did you customise the installation at all? The live-build engine requires that you have a version of the Windows 10 SDK installed and also Windows Kits (either v8.1 or v10) - can you check that you have these? They should be located at `C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits` ---

I didn’t know, sorry. However, I just installed the SDK, I see both 8.1 and 10 in the folder mentioned, but I still get the same error… ---

OK. Just to be sure that you’re definitely using the latest version of the live-build engine can you download JUCE from the website [here](https://juce.com/get-juce/download) and open the Projucer.exe that’s located in the main directory. Then try opening one of the example projects such as HelloWorld from the examples subfolder and enable the live-build engine. ---

alright, it works with the example projects! I still get the same error though when trying to run my plugin I’m currently developing… What does that error even tell me? I don’t know where to start looking in my code now… ---

Yeah looks like it’s an issue when live-building plugins, I’ll take a look at it. EDIT: seems fine building the demo plugin, not sure what the issue with yours could be… ---

ok, thanks for looking into it! I’ll probably rebuild my project and see if it works then… ---

Hello, I’m sry for being inactive. I’m using JUCE for my bachelor thesis so now I’m back here trying to make it work. The current problem I got is this (take a look at error list): ![Capture](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex026/uploads/juce/original/2X/7/7bd4f61463806d17a2bf7124004754367d7a8c2f.PNG) Any guesses? EDIT: I deleted my Visual Studio Community 2015 and installed 2017 Community version and now it works like a charm. I’ve no idea what was the reason. Thanks for all the comments and help, cheers! Best regards, Bruno ---

@gbevin did you ever solve your issue? I’m having the same problem as you, the “JIT process stopped responding” error, on macos 10.14.5, Juce 5.4.5 ( downloaded binary, but the same problem arises if I use a compiled Projucer), Xcode 11.1. I tried doing clean all, adding all macos SDK versions in the XCode bundle… But I still can’t live build. Getting this error in the projucer log: ``` ********************************************************** Projucer 5.4.5 --- Build date: Oct 16 2019 Log started: 10 Jan 2020 4:52:30pm Mac OSX 10.14.5 CPU: 2600MHz Cores: 8 16384MB Loading project: /Users/bloit/Library/Caches/Projucer/PIPs/HelloWorldDemo/HelloWorldDemo.jucer *** Child process crashed: ``` ![Screenshot 2020-01-10 at 16.54.02](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex026/uploads/juce/original/2X/2/238ce1293cef4f6bcd7bd8f54018b8123cac91e6.jpeg) Oh and I checked, the dylib for the compilation engine is downloaded. All of you mac users are able to use the live build engine? Any help would be appreciated! ---

I have not had that problem, but despite clearing everything I could find, recompiling the Projucer, and hoping a bunch, I still have the problem shown in this post. I am using the dev branch (up to date) on OS X 10.15.12. Working with Xcode and VS Code works as expected. > [@Live build weirdness, could be user error...?](https://forum.juce.com/t/live-build-weirdness-could-be-user-error/36357): > > I built the Projucer today (using Dev branch) and found that Live Build was no longer working (see screenshot below). Just to make sure i was not doing something wrong during the build, I rebuilt it using the Master branch and got the same result. Just to make sure that I did not make another mistake during the build (which is rather simple), I downloaded the Projucer pre-built for mac and got the same result. Has anyone ever seen this before & fixed it? ---

I tried reverting from XCode 11.1 to XCode 10.3 and it works again for me. It’s a wild guess but maybe this is due to the JUCECompileEngine.dylib file not being compiled with a matching XCode version. @ed95 does that sound plausible? Can we compile this library from the JUCE sources? ---

I’m using Xcode 11.1 on macOS 10.14.6 Mojave & I can’t get the live build engine to do anything at all. I’ve tried creating simple projects and loaded some of the JUCE GUI examples as well. I just don’t get any activity at all when trying to build. All of the Components I want to test have default constructors. I’d like to try using it to design simple GUI components in a separate “playground” project and then copy over that code to my actual projects.
