Can anyone help me figure out what is wrong with my
installation/project? I have a working (in XCode 1.5 or so) fairly
complicated project that I'm trying to work on now that I've upgraded
to OS 10.4 and xcode 2. But, when I try to compile it, the linker
complains that several of my classes are not defined. But they really
are! I still can see the .h and .m files where they are defined. I
tried cleaning all targets and that still did not fix it. Any ideas?

If you're going to go through the hassle of updating your project, you
should use Xcode 2.1, which lets you create universal binaries for the
upcoming Intel Macs. You can download Xcode 2.1 from Apple's developer
site, but you must be an online member of the Apple Developer
Connection. Online membership is free.

When you reinstall Xcode, you should uninstall the Xcode Tools first.
Sometimes problems occur if you reinstall the tools without
uninstalling. The uninstall tools script is named
uninstall-devtools.pl, and it resides in Developer/Tools. You must run
the script from the Terminal.

Thanks, Mark. I appreciate the suggestion. Unfortunately, no success.
Even after completely removing the old version 2. 0 and installing 2.1,
I got the same strange error (with or without cleaning out the
targets).
Anyway, I finally solved the problem by removing the respective source
and header files describing the objects from the project list, then I
added them back to the project. Compiled again, and it sees them this
time. Weird!!
