      The problem is that I didn't performed an "uninstall" because, sinde Xcode 4.3, the application is self-contained and does not require any un-installation.
      But I may have some pieces left from an older version. Now, I'm trying to get an older version to install, to be able to run the uninstall script to make sure that everything is cleaned. But I can't find any older version that allows me to install in Yosemite 😞
      This is getting really troublesome.

      As for the erroneous path... I used the cinema4dsdk.xcodeproj file that I then adjusted to point to my source files and produce a new target. I did everything I used to do to create all my other plugins.
      So, how can a path get wrong?

        Here is a video I made to show my problems. Maybe this could shed some light on what is wrong or what am I doing wrong.

            Damn!!! It was the first time that a video that I upload got a Private status without me doing anything.
            It should be public now. 🙂

              Has anyone seen the movie and figured it out what is going on?

              I managed to install XCode 5.0.2 in my MacBook Pro and I'm being able to develop and compile there.
              But I want to be able to develop and compile on my desktop machine too.
              Anyone? Please?

                Hi Rui,

                Something I see in your video, but that you don't ever point out, is that you're working under the Applications directory.  Due to OS X security rules and procedures that resemble those in Windows (for the  Program Files directory), I doubt that is where you're supposed to put your project files, let alone build within it.  Please try moving your projects to an appropriate directory on your Mac, check all permissions, and try compiling from there.  You may have to adjust the paths and such in the project file.

                  Thank you Joey.

                  I have always compiled my plugins with Xcode and Cinema 4D being in the Application folder.
                  However, after your recomendation, I created a Developer folder inside my user Folder and, inside it I placed the folder of the Cinema 4D that I use for development and the Xcode application.
                  And I still go this error:

                  Libtool /./lib_api_debug.a normal x86_64
                      cd "/Users/ruibatista/Second Drive/Development/CINEMA 4D R15/resource/_api_lib"
                      setenv MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET 10.6
                      /Users/ruibatista/Second\ Drive/Development/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin/libtool -static -arch_only x86_64 -syslibroot /Users/ruibatista/Second\ Drive/Development/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.9.sdk -L/Users/ruibatista/Second\ Drive/Development/CINEMA\ 4D\ R15/resource/_api_lib/../../../../(build)/Debug -filelist /Users/ruibatista/Second\ Drive/Development/CINEMA\ 4D\ R15/resource/_api_lib/../../../../(build)/_api.build/Debug/_api.build/Objects-normal/x86_64/_api_debug.LinkFileList -o /./lib_api_debug.a

                  /Users/ruibatista/Second Drive/Development/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin/libtool: file: /Users/ruibatista/Second Drive/(build)/_api.build/Debug/_api.build/Objects-normal/x86_64/c4d_uuid.o has no symbols
                  /Users/ruibatista/Second Drive/Development/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin/libtool: can't create output file: /./lib_api_debug.a (Permission denied)
                  Command /Users/ruibatista/Second Drive/Development/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin/libtool failed with exit code 1

                  Since this seems to be a problem writing a file inside the Xcode application itself, I even opened the Xcode package and changed all the permissions of ALL folders and files inside it to Read & Write for ALL users (Me, system, admin and everyone).
                  And I still get the same error 😞

                    Oh, another thing.
                    I used the same project file that I'm using in my MacBook Pro and is compiling just fine.
                    Actually, I copied the whole plugin folder from my MacBook Pro to my iMac. It compiles fine in Xcode 5.0.2 in my MacBook Pro but the same project returns this error in Xcode 5.0.2 on my iMac.

                      Hi Rui,

                      In previous posts, I asked that you report back on the output of the following command:

                      find . -iname lib_api_debug.a

                      You should try it both on your system that works and the one that doesn't.  I think you'll see a difference, and you'll then know which path to change in the project's settings on the troubled system.  You most likely have a path setting issue in the project, as it's trying to output to a path that isn't allowed.

                      I have no other recommendation or ideas to add...

                        And this is what I got from my MacBook Pro:

                        RuiBatistasMBP:~ ruibatista$

                        p.s. The Second Drive is a folder, not really a drive.

                            Rui and I had a private discussion of this topic.
                            In the end reinstalling Cinema 4D solved his problem.

                              Yes

                              After re-installing several versions of Xcode, making sure the permissions were all set to Read & Write and even after fixing permissions (with Disk Utility), the only solution was to re-install Cinema 4D.

                              WOW!! It is so nice to finally be able to build my projects in my main machine.
                              And, on the positive side, now I also have a portable development machine
