C ++无法在XCode 4.2中编译（链接？）

Question

I have a very small program in Xcode only displaying a label and changing the text of the label in the viewWillAppear method. The label.text should come from a C++ library with a function like this:

int getNumber(){
    return 42;
}

The problem is, that including the class with #import "TestLibMain.h" in my *.mm(!) class and using the function with

TestLibMain *tlb = new TestLibMain();
int myInt = tlb->getNumber();
NSString *myString = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%d",myInt];

doesn't invoke a compiler error, but a linker error:

Undefined symbols for architecture i386: "TestLibMain::getNumber()", referenced from: -[tbViewController buttonPressed:] in tbViewController.o ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture i386 clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

My impression is, that the cpp-class has not been compiled.

I tried a lot of things around, but somewhere it's hanging. It's all in the same directory, I use the .mm extension, everything fine, but always this linker error. Getting crazy :-)

Mac OS X Lion, XCode 4.2

Any ideas?

Answer 1

int getNumber() {
    return 42;
}

in a .cpp or .mm defines getNumber() as a free function. This:

int TestLibMain::getNumber() {
    return 42;
}

defines getNumber() as a member of TestLibMain .
