Problem Compiling under iOS 5

[kraythe]

I pulled the latest version of Bullet from the downloads and I am trying to integrate it into my iOS app and I have some problems compiling. I have copied the compiler settings exactly from the falling cubes demo but it still doest work. However, the falling cubes demo builds and works fine so there must be something I am missing. After hours of working on it, I am out of ideas and would appreciate some help. Thanks in advance.

Here are the compiler errors I am getting (and they dont make ANY sense to me since they compile in falling cubes demo.

TIA!

P.S. I have the header paths working and they are finding the headers so that isnt the problem. In fact xcode navigates to the offending symbol just fine but it wont compile.

I have found the problem.

My view controller was a .m file. When it included Bullet, it treated it as C code. Changing it to a .mm solved the problem.

So for all those out there having the same problem, try that.
