[David Garsha]

Thanks to all of you for your help, and thanks for the explanation, Nick. This will save me a lot of time, as now I know where to focus my efforts.

Regards,
David

David,

This usually means a static library is corrupt.  The table of contents said a symbol was in an object file at some offset in the archive, but the linker later found there was no member at that offset.

I'm encountering the following assertion when linking an Xcode project with Xcode 4.6.3 (4H1503). The project has dependencies on, and links against, an Objective-C static library Xcode project, and a C++ static library Xcode project. All are using using LLVM 4.2.

ld: Assertion failed: (memberIndex != 0), function makeObjectFileForMember, file /SourceCache/ld64/ld64-136/src/ld/parsers/archive_file.cpp, line 354.

A linker snapshot was created at:

ld: Assertion failed: (memberIndex != 0), function makeObjectFileForMember, file /SourceCache/ld64/ld64-136/src/ld/parsers/archive_file.cpp, line 354.
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

The problem does not occur in Xcode 5.0 (5A1413) with LLVM 5, but unfortunately I must continue to use Xcode 4 for a while.

Any suggestions for how to work around this assertion, or hints as to what is going wrong would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for reading.

Regards,
David
