When compiling the TestCocos2dx project against a release build I get the following error:

D:\bbndk-2.0.0-beta3\host\win32\x86\usr\bin\ntoarm-ld: ../../../cocos2dx/platform/third_party/qnx/libraries\libvorbis.a(vorbisfile.o): relocation R_ARM_MOVW_ABS_NC against `__stack_chk_guard' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC

 WIth a simulator build configuration the build works properly, but will not load onto the simulator, instead giving the following error:

Packaging failed:1
Error: File or dir does not exist: D:\bbndk-2.0.0-beta3\target\target-override\x86\usr\lib\libbps.so

 To be fair, that file does not seem to exist.

Has anyone had success getting any Cocos2dx projects to run?

Gday,

I was able to get Cocos2DX and its samples up and running without hitting these issues.

For the second issue could you go open the bar-descriptor.xml file and then go to the "Assets" tab and delete any reference to libbps? This is not longer needed in NDK 2.0.

Actually, you may be best to re-sync from Github (if using an older pull of Cocos2DX) and use the following steps to compile the samples:

1) Compile the cocos2dx library project

2) Import the cocos2dxtests project right from cocos2dx library directory

3) Compile cocos2dxtests

Check to ensure that cocos2dx is getting rebuilt if you change the build configuration.

Make sure you are checking out from the "next" branch on github.  The "master" branch has some legacy workarounds for the older NDK (specifically the libbps override).

Cheers,

Sean

Removing libbps seemed to clear up the one issue but now I am seeing the following warning when trying to install on the simulator

Packaging failed:1
Error: File or dir does not exist: D:\bbndk-2.0.0-beta3\target\target-override\x86\usr\lib\libOpenAL.so

 Removing libOpenAL.so also resulted in more errors

I downloaded the next branch and the project built without errors, but didn't contian any binaries that I could deploy to the device or simulator. Mixing it with the other projects doesn't seem to work either.

Any chance that this is due to me running beta versions of OS 2?

The binaries are built before deployment, so it should nothing to do with the OS you are running on your device. 

What steps are you following to compile?

EDIT: I was having the same problem,

When you go to build the app make sure you build the cocos2dx and other files first that will solve the issue

I had the same problem, when updating to OS 2.0 and NDK 2.0 the project compiles but does not get uploaded to the device. What I did was copy the files reported as missing from the same folder of the NDK 1.0 installation path and after that all problems where gone and now I can upload the application.

Maybe there is a better solution, if you know one please let me know

[gbeukeboom]

There shouldn't be any missing files reported, if there is then it is likely that you are using an outdated version of Cocos2DX

replace

${QNX_TARGET}/../target-override/${CPUVARDIR}/usr/lib/libbps.so

with

${QNX_TARGET}/${CPUVARDIR}/usr/lib/libbps.so

in bar-descriptor.xml

[gbeukeboom]

In NDK 2.0/PlayBook OS 2.0 there is no need to include reference to the bps lib at all from your project, it will already reside on the device. Removing this line altogether should still allow it to compile.
