For some reason when I build my project I get these error.

Apple Mach-O Linker Error

No such file or directory: '`-lc++'

clang: error: no such file or directory: '`-lc++'

I have tried rebuilding the project many times and I also have cleaned the project many times too. For some reason on my mac if I do that it magically fixes errors sometimes. Here is also more information on the errors.

Looks like some sort of garbage before the dash. Did you edit the linked libraries manually? Try rewriting it. - Per Johansson
Nope. I did not edit the linked libraries. - thebootsie123
@thebootsie123 even tho the answer you provided says otherwise? - Brad Allred
OH. I'm sorry. I read it differently. - thebootsie123

Fixed it. It turns out that in the api I'm using I copied and pasted the other linker flags wrong. Making one of them be

`-lc++

When it should have been

-lc++
