Why would I be getting this? I'm pretty sure lzma.h has not moved.

I have no idea what you did to your OS but my /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreFoundation.framework/Headers/CFBase.h contains no reference whatsoever to lzma.h.

Did you install software messing up with your system files ?

[marismaro]

Not that I can recall...Although I did update to Lion and Xcode 4.5 recently, would either of those have overwritten CFBase.h?

[marismaro]

#if defined(__GNUC__) || TARGET_OS_WIN32
#include <stdint.h>
#include <stdbool.h>
#endif

#if __BLOCKS__
#include <lzma.h>
#endif

// The arguments to these availability macros is a version number, e.g. 10_6, 3_0
#if TARGET_OS_MAC && !(TARGET_OS_EMBEDDED || TARGET_OS_IPHONE)
#include <AvailabilityMacros.h>
#include <Availability.h>

Here's the section it shows up in, should I just delete these lines from CFBase.h? (first make a backup of course)

should I just delete these lines from CFBase.h?

Probably not. Doing so might break other stuff elsewhere.

I googled a little bit your error and didn't find any forum post stating the same issue... wierd!

I also upgraded from Lion not so long ago and haven't got any issue like this one. Did SFML work before upgrading your system ? Maybe your system was broken before the update so you might need to reinstall it.

However, before going through this last resort solution you can try reinstalling Xcode, then if it still doesn't work, reinstall the CLT from Xcode. Then if it still doesn't work you can consider a clean install of your OS. Hopefully, you won't need to do that.

The 10.7 SDK shows the following for CFBase.h lines 44 to 46:

Code: [Select]

#if __BLOCKS__
#include <Block.h>
#endif
You *could* try this, but the best point would of course be to find out why you have this lzma include.
