Hi John,
you could have something there. When I use the 4.24 version, I do indeed get XERROR not found, but I don't get this error with 4.27. However, my older _rel file still exists, so qmake should be able to find it, but I suspect it is telling me that some error occurred with QMAC and not that it cannot find the asm file to assemble. Perhaps ........ My version of qmac doesn't like -xerror on a command line and it is Quanta version 0.10 so mine is even older than yours ! I've had a look into the binary for both versions and XERROR is indeed in the file (once) but I'm not sure if this is part of a command line or what - it's out of context.

However, in my case, I also get the message "-XERROR is not a valid option" which I think is generated by QMac. If I'm right, this means that ram1_abc_asm is found but never assembled and QMake is actually telling us that it can't find the file it's trying to make, i.e. ram1_abc_rel... It seems to me that the root of the problem is the command string that QMake is sending to QMac, which in turn implies that Jochen, Bernt and Marcel have a version of QMac that understands "-XERROR" while you, me and Norman do not! The problem with this theory is that I have QMac 1.01 which, according to John Gilpin, is still the version that Quanta supply...
