Unknown type name 'Point'

daniel · December 29, 2015, 2:55pm

I just updated to the latest tip and can no longer compile. I also checked with an empty Audio Plugin template:

I get compiler errors "Unknown type name 'Point'" in Finder.h, Quickdraw.h, Processess.h and Fonts.h. This makes no sense to me, as it seems to be defined in MacTypes.h, which is included right before the failing header in question.

As I said, it also happens in an empty new Audio Plugin. I rebuilt the Introjucer after the "git pull origin", reopened the jucer file, and hit "Save and open in IDE" and did a rebuild, which fails.

Was there a change which can explain this? Can I resolve it or should I start to roll back the Juce commits, to see, when it worked last time?

I run Mac OS-X 10.10 and XCode 7, compiling for VST, VST 3, AU and AAX

Ah, that'll be due to some changes I made in the last couple of days.. Thought I had tested all the project configurations, but will have another look and sort this out. Thanks!

daniel · December 29, 2015, 4:52pm

Ok, meanwhile I rolled back for about a week to continue working (Dec. 23 works). Let me know when I can return to the tip.

Thanks for checking/fixing.

jules · December 30, 2015, 10:41am

Should be OK now, thanks!

daniel · December 30, 2015, 12:07pm

Unfortunately not, though the error message has slightly changed:

"Unknown type name 'Point'; did you mean 'Steinberg::Point'?"

And it's only complaining in Finder.h. The others seem ok, or the compiler capitulated earlier now.

jules · December 30, 2015, 1:27pm

I can't reproduce that one here.. Can you paste the full message (i.e. including all the header paths)?

daniel · December 30, 2015, 2:14pm

argh, since the update to xcode 7 I can't find the raw compiler output any more. I attach the screenshot as png meanwhile...

daniel · December 30, 2015, 2:18pm

Always a second after posting I find the solution, here is the log:

...the problem is only in the VST3 wrapper, if I disable VST3 in the introjucer, the rest builds fine.

And adding the #include "../utility/juce_IncludeSystemHeaders.h" right before the "juce_IncludeModuleHeaders.h" as you did for AAX does not help.

jules · December 30, 2015, 6:51pm

Sorry, but nothing I do can reproduce this!

I would have suggested adding exactly the include that you said, which also compiles fine for me, but if that doesn't help, I have no idea.

You must have some kind of strange configuration - perhaps email me a project that goes wrong?

daniel · December 30, 2015, 9:20pm

That's strange, I did a completely empty Audio Plugin from Introjucer, the only thing I set was:

deployment target 10.8 (even though I use 10.10)
Adding VST, VST3, AU and AAX
Setting SDK paths
Setting C++ language to C++11

Then "Save and open in IDE" and build...

Oh wait, I didn't install the latest Steinberg update -the unfortunate with the identical build number-, as so many reported having trouble after updating... I will check that

edit: I installed VST SDK 3.6.5 build 67 from dec. 11th 2015, tried make clean and build, no change...

If you PM me your email adress I can send you the project as tgz.

Thanks for your time...

jules · December 31, 2015, 9:33am

Thanks. Could be maybe because you're building with 10.10 and I'm on 10.11. Have you got the latest Xcode?

(My email address isn't hard to guess: jules@juce.com)

daniel · December 31, 2015, 11:46am

The XCode is the latest for 10.10 XCode 7.2 7C68 and the AppStore shows no newer version. Do you use the C++11 setting?

For the project file: you have mail...

anoesisaudio · December 31, 2015, 10:08pm

Downloaded current tip from Github, tried to compile a new plugin project (created via Introjucer and changed nothing), and received similar errors (related to Finder.h). I am not doing anything unusual - latest xcode, JUCE, etc.

EDIT: Should have mentioned in-case it makes a difference; host demo and demo apps compile with no problems. DemoPlugin compiles except for VST3.

With VST3 included in the compile, error messages are:

The first message is referring to this ->


struct FileInfo {
  OSType              fileType;               /* The type of the file */
  OSType              fileCreator;            /* The file's creator */
  UInt16              finderFlags;            /* ex: kHasBundle, kIsInvisible... */
  Point               location;               /* File's location in the folder */
                                              /* If set to {0, 0}, the Finder will place the item automatically */
  UInt16              reservedField;          /* (set to 0) */
};

The rest are related to other structs, but same idea.

jules · January 3, 2016, 5:16pm

Thanks guys - this turned out to be because I didn't have the latest version of the VST SDK, and they changed a few things in the new one.

I've pushed a fix now, so let us know if there's still a problem.

anoesisaudio · January 3, 2016, 5:41pm

That appears to have done the trick. Thank you Jules.

daniel · January 4, 2016, 11:28pm

Yes, works for me too.

Thanks for fixing :-)

vladdamian10 · March 24, 2016, 4:55pm

Hi,

I am not able to fix this error, no matter what.

I have done the upgrade to OSX 10.11from 10.8.5 in January and when I tried to compile, I had an issue with Finder.h and Component.h (Carbon Core) (Reference to 'Point' is ambigous). I got the last updated version of JUCE from that time and use it but with no luck.

A quick fix I did to continue working on my project was to import the older OSX 10.8.5 SDK to the XCode I had installed on OSX10.11 . That was a quick fix and it worked (basicaly, I used the 10.8 OSX in OSX Base SDK version).

But yesterday, after updating XCode to v7.3, I couldn't use no more the old 10.8 OSX SDK.

I have downloaded again the last update from JUCE and tried to compile with OSX 10.11 as Base SDK version and it doesn't work.

Neither with the last update from Steinberg VST SDK.

Am don't have that much experience with all this, as I started to use JUCE from just an year ago and before that I knew just a few things to do from faculty.

Please let me know if I miss something or how to fix this issue, as the errors suggested are related to the OSX frameworks.

Thank you!

baptisteb · October 2, 2017, 9:48pm

I’m having the same error, using the JUCE release 4.3.1. Do you know if your fix is included in this release, @jules?

jules · October 3, 2017, 6:29am

Absolutely no idea, this is from long ago. We can only really help with problems in the latest version!
