barrel compilation

I am trying to build a project with barrel.

but the compilation failed with :

StressIcon.mc:7: Undefined symbol "meditateFontStress" detected.
BUILD: ERROR: Barrel build failed

and the failing sources is :module ScreenPicker {
   class StressIcon extends Icon {
       function initialize(icon) {
           icon[:font] = StatusIconFonts.fontMeditateIcons;
           icon[:symbol] = StatusIconFonts.Rez.Strings.meditateFontStress;

           Icon.initialize(icon);
       }

what's wrong ?

Is it possible that you have a typographical error? Can you show us the resources in the barrel, and maybe a bit more of your code?

We have several test apps that use resources in barrels, and they all run fine. The barrel code looks something like this:

module Verification1 {

    var moduleVar = true;

    function moduleFunction() {
        return true;
    }
}

The strings.xml for that barrel looks like this:

<strings>
    <string id="barrelString">String inside the barrel</string>
</strings>

The application code that uses the barrel resources looks like this:

using Toybox.WatchUi;
using Verification1;

function testStrings() {
    var barrel1String = WatchUi.loadResource(Verification1.Rez.Strings.barrelString);
    return barrel1String.equals("String inside the barrel");
}
