   Hi,
   when I try to build a project completely based on 0.99.5 beta (not just the cocos2d stuff but also CocosDenshion) I get the following error (though I don´t use any audio stuff in that project)

   Error in CDAudioManager:

   'AVAudioSessionInterruptionFlags_ShouldResume' undeclared (first use in this function)

   Hi again,

   the problem occurs when my project is an SDK 3.2 project (it´s compiling with a 4.0 project - but for an iPad project I have to use SDK 3.2, right?!)

   Nice work :). I'm curious about the performance test results for VBO in comparison to vertex arrays on arm6, could you share them?

   Great work!

   Already reworking our next game plan to make use of the new features :D

   @araker between 2% and 5%.

   @marcotronic:
   yes, for iPad set SDK 3.2.
   Are you using the v0.99.5-beta templates ?

   @riq: Thanks, yes I´m using the 0.99.5-beta templates. I´ve just installed them and used them in a demo project (see http://www.cocos2d-iphone.org/forum/topic/8267/page/2) Here I had to comment out those lines in order to get it compiled). Seems to be a feature only available since SDK 4.0...

   @riq: The strange thing is: I can run different demo projects from 0.99.5-beta without getting the error while trying to build the projects but not the CocosDenshion test projects (here I get the above mentioned error). When I build my own projects with 0.99.5-beta I get immediate errors when I try to built anything - even if it is not related to CocosDenshion. Even the basic HelloWorld fails with the basic template for SDK 3.2

    @riq, thanks for the link. I see the tests are done with dynamic geometry, maybe static geometry can benefit from VBO's on mbx hardware. Although I doubt it since VBO's are broken on mbx, nonetheless I'll do some testing to make sure soon.

    @marcotronic: It might be a bug in the templates. Could you open an issue ? Thanks.

    @riq: I´ve PM'ed Steve Oldmeadow a couple of hours ago concerning this issue and he told me he already fixed this in his development branch and sent you a "pull request" so that it will be in the cocos2D dev. branch soon.

    Thanks,
    Marco

    PS: By the way - is there an easy mechanism to link directly to a user when answering (I´ve been wondering how you get that link in the user name when you answer to one of my posts with @marcotronic e.g. ...)

    @marcotronic: I've just merged @steve-oldmeadow repo.

    PS: Just prepend "@" to the user name :)

    "Just prepend "@" to the user name"

    that doesnt seem to work if there is a space in the name - but maybe replacing the space with a dash seems to work?

    This version has a problem with empty strings in CCBitmapFontAtlas.

    Example:
    CCBitmapFontAtlas *label = [CCBitmapFontAtlas bitmapFontAtlasWithString:@"" fntFile:@"Arial.fnt"];

    This causes CCBitmapFontAtlas::createFontChars to go crazy due a signed/unsigned issue. The stringLen-1 causes integer overflow. Changing the first for-loop to use int instead of unsigned int should fix the problem.

    Yes, I found that as well, although my fix was a little less graceful, I just added a space between the quotes...

    Was this fixed? I still get the error and am using the latest dev branch and latest templates. I did a force overwrite of every file, but still get this. I then wiped everything Cocos2D wise from my system, re-installed, and still get this. I can get around it by commenting out the problem method but I'm wary about doing that as it's most likely there for a reason :)

    @mrTortex have you tried pulling from Steve's repository for the cocosDenshion stuff?

    @mrTortex:

    The fix for that hasn't been merged to master yet, but it is available in the develop branch if you want to pull that:
    http://github.com/cocos2d/cocos2d-iphone/blob/develop/CocosDenshion/CocosDenshion/CDAudioManager.m#L711

    For reference here's the commit in @steve-oldmeadow's repo:
