I am using the ncurse.h header file to make a snake game, however since you can't simply run a game in xcode, I've tried opening it up and running it in the terminal but the terminal spits out a lot of errors. I've tried reading through this to see if theres any information I can get out of it to resolve in my actual program, but there is nothing of relevance in there that I can find. I tried adding the -lncurses to the compiler flag in the build phases section of my xcode program but that doesn't do anything as far as I can tell.
UPDATE: I've now tried using g++ main.cpp -o pocs -lncurses which has resolved all of my errors, however when I execute the program and then access it in terminal and paste the command, nothing happens. Perhaps its something wrong with my syntax in the program itself?
You are specifying main.cpp twice:
g++ main.cpp -lncurses -o pocs main.cpp
^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^
Hence the dupes. Drop the second from the command line:
g++ main.cpp -o pocs -lncurses
