      Hi Rui,

      there are three things coming to my mind.

      I once had a similar situation with Xcode 6.0.1, where it refused to start. I'm reluctant to say so, but the final solution was to reboot my MacBook... something I deemed to be a happily forgotten thing of Win98 era.

      For Cinema 4D R16 the recommended Xcode version is at least Xcode 5.0.2. I myself use 6.0.1 without problems. It may well be, that the R16 SDK uses some C++ feature, 4.6.2 is not aware of and which triggers a bug in the old 4.6.2 version. You may want to have a look here for the recommended Xcode versions per Cinema 4D SDK version: PluginCafe Blog: C++[URL-REMOVED]
      By the way, you can install several Xcode versions next to each other (best to start installing with the oldest). There are archives with all versions to be downloaded from Apple's developer site.

      Lastly you may want to find out, which was the last project you worked on. Xcode is probably trying to reload this on start. Just to be sure, this is not badly configured, move the project aside, so Xcode can't find it anymore and try to start again.

        I will try those solutions when I get home (I'm starting a Cinema 4D class now).

          I can't make Xcode 4.6.2 work.
          I installed Xcode 5.0.2 and when I opened my project in there and pressed "Build", I got this error (and the build failed) :

          Command /Applications/Developer/5.0.2/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin/libtool failed with exit code 1

          What can I do to fix this?

                Rui,

                the last icon in the navigator menu contains the "Show the Log navigator" icon. If you select one of the message - in the main window - and open the context menu (RMB), then you'll find an option "Expand All transcripts". This should give you a more detailed message of what is going wrong.

                I suppose it 's the incompatible install path we reported for Xcode 5 & newer (@Apple; radar: ID 14771490) - and which is considered in the R16 SDK.

                Another possible problem could be selecting the wrong command line tools (Xcode 5 should always include the right ones); please check in Xcode->Preferences->Locations ... "Command Line Tools" for the proper selection.

                Best regards,

                Wilfried

                  I managed to be able to perform successful builds from five out of my six C++ plugins. Just have to deal with a small (I hope) error in the last one.
                  This is one of the reasons I do most of my development in python. It is so much easier (but not as powerful, I know 🙂 )

                    This is happening again.
                    Now I tried using the project file I was using for my plugins that were already compiling, changed it to the new source code and I get a compilation fail with the same error as the one stated in my original post.
                    I also tried with the cinema4dsdk project file and I get the same error!!!!
                    Why? Oh why?!?!?!
                    Can someone help me? Please.

                        I tried re-installing Xcode 4.6.2 and Xcode 5.0.2 and they both return the same error as I try to build my plugin.

                        Does anyone know how to fix this?

                                Based on the output I'd guess you managed to write protect the sdk and build directory (making Xcode and the toolchain failing to create any compiled files).

                                      Just to make sure it is not write protected.
