Command libtool failed with exit code 1

Question

I've created a static library C++ project but when I compile I get the following error:

XCode 4.1 (Lion) doesn't show me any more information what's going wrong. I'm using clang.

How can I find out what went wrong?

Answer 1

I have read elsewhere, and confirmed myself, that the problem is that Xcode is suppressing the output from stdout.

As a work around, in Xcode, flip open the display of the commands being executed and copy and paste them into a Terminal session and run lib tool from there.
