NSLog error: Can't find 'NXConstantString'?

I finally got GNUstep working (on windows), and it compiles and runs fine. However, whenever I try to use NSLog, I get the following error:

$ gcc -o hello hello.m -I /GNUstep/System/Library/Headers \
> -L /GNUstep/System/Library/Libraries -lobjc -lgnustep-base
hello.m: In function 'main'开发者_如何学运维:
hello.m:4:5: error: cannot find interface declaration for 'NXConstantString'

My source code:

#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>

int main(void) {
    NSLog(@"hello world");
}

It is -

NSLog(@"hello world");

not

 NSlog(@"hello world");  // 'l' should be upper case in NSLog

Try this -

gcc -o hello hello.m -I /usr/lib/GNUstep/System/Library/Headers \
-L /usr/lib/GNUstep/System/Library/Libraries/ -lgnustep-base \
-fconstant-string-class=NSConstantString

How to compile objective c programs using gcc

Try the following:

$gcc -o hello hello.m -I /GNUstep/System/Library/Headers -L /GNUstep/System/Library/Libraries -lobjc -lgnustep-base -fconstant-string-class=NSConstantString

Note

-fconstant-string-class=NSConstantString

without this command it consider constant string objects as a class type NXConstantString.

To run:

$./hello.m or whatever your objective-c code file name.

it's very simple just put a space between -lgnustep-base and -fconstant-class=NSConstantString

Wrong way: -lgnustep-base-fconstant-class=NSConstantString

Right way: -lgnustep-base -fconstant-class=NSConstantString
