Linker error when rebuilding addon

[gerhardberger]

hi

I made an example that used the Hello World example and it worked fine, but after some time it started throwing a linker error when I wanted to rebuild the addon. I can't say it surely but I think it started to throw the error after I updated to El Capitan beta 4 from beta 3.
after I rebuild with:

node-gyp rebuild

I get this error:

...

I checked and I have a libgcc_s.10.5.tbd file in my /usr/lib folder and I reinstalled node-gyp too.

thanks

The issue might be on the OS side, because in El Capitan there is a .tbd extension for dynamic libraries and that might cause the problem. I haven't been able to solve it yet though.

[gerhardberger]

The problem was that I didn't used the Command Line Tools of Xcode 7.
With that it's working fine!

I changed to use iTerm but still doesn't work.

I have the same issue.
