App Name Syntax error App

Targets macOS
1

I have noticed in another post that this problem occurs in Web projects but since I updated to Xojo 2018 Release 3, in my Desktop project, I am getting this problem “App Name Syntax error App”.

The project compiles and works flawlessly in Xojo 2018 Release 2.

What gives?

Thanks.

Thanks Jean-Yves,

That did not work.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks again.

change the other fields in build settings, fill them with anything, then try to compile.
it seems this error is related to something there.

Thanks Jean-Yves,

Nothing there seems to work.

Any other suggestions?

yes … send your project @Jason Parsley

OK, I got a solution… Apparently something in the original App has an inaccessible issue.

I re-created the project.

  1. Create a new project and delete everything. App will not be deleted but its contents can.
  2. Transfer all code from the original project.
  3. Compile.

Works great.

if you still have the old not working project, I’m sure Jason will like to get it…

I have uploaded a “skeletonized” version here.
