Can't run or compile Code :-(

[Daniel P.]

Hello,
if I liked to run or compile code with PB (3.94d), then I receive the error message “Error: Assembler command not found”. The code is a simple “MessageRequester (“test”, “Hello world! ”, 0) “ - more not. Does somebody know, why i get this error? I using Mac OS X 10.4.8 ... sorry for my bad english

THX

Hi Kale,
thanks for your answer! I have XCode installed and now PureBasic works fine. But if I build a executable file, then pure basic always makes a console program from it - whatever i try to do (see HERE). Do you know, what I make wrong?

I'm having that console-problem, too. Can anyone help?

You should be using the latest version of PureBasic for MacOS, not v3.94d.
I don't know if that'll fix your problem, but v3.94d is not supported anymore.

You have to put a ".app" after the name of your executable (when creating it from the IDE).

Thx Fred! The additional tip "when creating" was the missing one, cause I already tried to rename my executables to .app and that just didn't work, but when I added the .app during the compilation to the executable format (as you mentioned) it really worked!!!
