I have built a small command line tool with an Xcode template.
The built works as it should, I can Archive it to obtain an executable quite fine.
What I cannot figure out is where I can set the version number of the binary. I do not have a Info.plist, but I can see several places containing the verb "Version"–none of which will attach a version number to my binary.
What am I missing here?
Command line tools don't have external info like a version number (eg something that would show up in the Finder). You should write internal code that returns a version number when someone calls SwiftyAppleMailCreator --version.

I recently started using qemu and it's a great tool when you don't have the required hardware to run your firmware (currently using it for cortex-m3).
Now what I want to do is to do some test coverage with it. I tried using GNUC ARM Eclipse, and I've been successfull compiling and executing the code in qemu, but whenever I add the -fprofile-arcs -ftest-coverage flags (for the project and then for the desired file to run coverage) I am able to create the .gcno file, which means that after executing my code it will generate a .gcda file and then I should be able to see the coverage.
Thtat's where everything goes wrong. I was able to generate a .gcda file but whenever I try to open any of them, eclipse tells me that it wasn't able to open the file because it was null. I've tried replicating the procedure in another computer, but I haven't been successful creating the gcda file (probably different binaries).
At this point I don't really know how to proceed. Should I abandon ARM Eclipse and stick to makefiles (is it possibll to run gcov this way?) or am I missing something really small that is fixable?
PS: I using windows 7 64 bits, the latest versions available on the GNU ARM Eclipse website. Also the idea of doing it via makefiles just occurred to me (it was a stresfull day, it's really late) so I haven't tried it yet, I've only tried executing the code, but without coverage.
As far as I know, qemu is not able to generate DWARF information. But there is a project with the proposal of code coverage with qemu: Couverture Project
When you use qemu as a user space emulator (see also the qemu documentation) you actually can measure the code coverage as usual. In this mode qemu has the full access to the host file system.
For a CMake project you can simply use the CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR property of your test executable, e.g.:
if(CMAKE_CROSSCOMPILING)
set_target_properties(mytest
PROPERTIES
CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR "qemu-${CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR};-L;$ENV{SDKTARGETSYSROOT}"
)
endif()
With this setting ctest will use qemu for running the test and will write the .gcda files to the usual location in your build directory.
I have memory related problem in my application on solaris9 environment where Tcl_DeleteInterp() function calls lot of free() and mutex_unlock() functions. To debug the problem i followed the below steps to compile tcl on solaris server (with TCL_MEM_DEBUG flag) but still i couldn't use the 'memory' command in my interpreter.
Ran configure script on server (./configure –prefix=<directory needs to be installed> --enable-symbols=mem)
Make clean all
Make install (tcl libraries and tlcsh exe is copied to the path specified in step1)
Compilation generated two libraries (libtcl8.4g.so and libtclstub8.4g.a), I copied libtcl8.4g.so as libtcl8.4.so to my app
Copied tcl8.4 directory as well.
I also copied the tclsh8.4 to $PROVHOME/bin and created soft link as tclsh-> tclsh8.4.
From my application i linked the debug symbol enabled libraries to the place where exactly i created the Tcl interpreter.
Initialized the Tcl interpreter to using Tcl_InitMemory() function (so that the memory command will be registered in the supplied(arg) interpreter.
When i used the interpreter exe (tclsh) separately i could execute the memory command, but when i used the same exe on my application its not working. Can someone help me what could be the possible reason for this problem ?
Also help me how can i cross verify the libraries that they are compiled with TCL_MEM_DEBUG flag.
Will the Tcl source code tar file contain Solaris directory where i have to build the libraries or should i use the unix source code for solaris platform as well ?
Thanks
Are you using [mem] interactively (which does expansion of unambiguous short command names) and forgetting to use the full name ([memory]) in your scripts?
You're using Tcl embedded in your code? You need to call Tcl_InitMemory (passing in the handle to the interpreter where you want the memory command created) after creation of the interpreter and before you run user scripts, i.e., straight after the Tcl_CreateInterp gives you the handle (which should in turn come after the Tcl_FindExecutable call that initializes the shared parts of the library).
You must also make sure that everything is built with that flag set so that the correct memory allocation APIs are used in both your code when it integrates with Tcl, and you must make sure that you are linking against the debugging build. It's probably the linking that has gone wrong, but I've not done that level of development on Solaris for many years.
I think you'll find that “Getting a list of used libraries by a running process (unix)” is relevant to your problems.
I am trying to use Octave within TextMate. I have installed the appropriate bundles, and have Octave installed. I am able to run Octave from within the Terminal, but would like to run programs from within TextMate itself. When I hit Build and Run, I get an error stating that the directory I am using does not contain an Xcode project, and an attempt to build with Xcode that fails.
My files are in .m format, and I've successfully used TextMate for other programming languages. Does anyone know why I can't get it to run with Octave?
Best,

.m is typically used as an file extension for Objective-C source files, so it seems like TextMate interprets it accordingly. You could see if the correct bundle is used and, if neccessary, deactivate the Objective-C bundle.
I'm new with XCode and still trying to understand objective-C. I'm using xcode 4.3.2, and I have to create an app that integrates with PJSIP.
I found this link. I am still confused about that link, because the article said that we must have installed the command line tool. But the command line tool is already installed in my XCode. How can i use it?
Do I need to create a view base application? how can I run the command line tool like the link says?
The command line tools allow you to compile "traditional UNIX programs" from source, generally using make. If you are using Xcode to create your projects then you don't even need them installed.
EDIT OK you have edited your question, stating the real issue you are facing; You don't know how to use the PJSIP package you have installed. The link you reference is about building PJSIP, not using it, so you can still forget about the command line and concentrate on how to configure your Xcode project to use PJSIP. This will require setting the header search paths and library search paths to find the header files and library file, in order to compile and link against it. Hopefully it's a static library as that will be easier to use; if it's a dynamic library or framework then you have your work cut-out as that's much harder to use.
In newer XCode (4.3 or above) you might have to install command line tools since it has been made optional. Open XCode and go to XCode->Preferences
Open the Downloads panel and click on "Components". If Command Line Tools are not installed already, you will get an option to install them from here.
Do so and you are set.
I done with it by myself. if you face the same problem, you can refer to this link, I already tried and run it. It works both on simulator and device. thanks.
I want to create QR codes for a project I'm working on in applescript the resulting qr will be placed in the indesign document. I have found that there is a plugin for indesign but I suspect that requires user interaction.
So I've been search for how to generate the qr using a shell command. I've found things related to php and rails and even coldfusion but none of those will fit the bill on this. I need to generate them using shell command so image events or perl basically anything I can run from the command line that comes with the mac os
thanks for your help.

I wonder if I could call a url using curl or somthing to get one ?
For doing something similar, we use libqrencode.
It's a c library for generating QR codes, but it comes with a command line utility (called qrencode) which lets you generate QR codes from a string, e.g.:
./qrencode -o /tmp/foo.png "This is the input string"
It supports most options you'd probably want (e.g. error correction level, image size, etc.).
We've used it in production for a year or two, with no problems.
I've only run it on linux systems, but there's no reason you shouldn't be able to compile it on Mac OS, assuming you have a compiler and build tools installed (and any libraries it depends on of course).
As Riccardo Cossu mentioned please use homebrew:
brew install qrencode
qrencode -o so.png "http://stackoverflow.com"
