When the New [[SpatiaLite]] Layer menu item is selected, the dialog to create the layer does not appear. I am using development builds from the [[KyngChaos]] site. This works in build r13289, but does not work in the newer r13385 and r13519 builds. Using OS X 10.6.3.

Running QGIS from the terminal, I get the following warning:
Warning: Object::connect: No such slot [[QgisApp]]::newSpatialiteLayer()

There were changes made to add new [[SpatiaLite]] layer in dc39570 (SVN r13295). Is it possible this change broke adding a [[SpatiaLite]] layer in OS X as it worked in 6b65708 (SVN r13290).

I messed up a sqlite setting in the Xcode project, so qgsspatialitesourceselect.cpp|h were not compiled.

working on it...

OK, turns out you had the right track - while newSpatialiteLayer() should be conditionalized in qgisapp.cpp, it should not be so in qgisapp.h. newSpatialiteLayer() must exist (defined in qgisapp.h), it's just an empty function if spatialite is not enabled.

fixed in 519c04b (SVN r13568). I'll package up a new Mac dev build later.

• resolution was changed from to fixed
