I've been trying to follow http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/LaTeX/Glossary to display glossary entries. And i'm probably missing something out :(

I have the following code

\usepackage{glossaries}

(...)


\makeindex
\makeglossaries

\begin{document}

(...)

\newpage
\section{glossary}

\newglossaryentry{ios}
{
    name=iOS,
    description={Operative system used by Apple's mobile devices}
}

\glsaddall
\printglossaries

but nothing get's displayed (tried to compile multiple times). Anyone have an idea on what i'm doing wrong?

Edit:

I've just noticed if I mouse ouver on texstudio over any of those commands it shows a tooltip displaying "unrecognized command"

Did you run makeglossaries? – cgnieder Jul 8 '12 at 10:06
tried after you commented but didn't do anything. I'm a really newbie in latex :( – fmsf Jul 8 '12 at 10:14
just noticed I get a warning "no file thesis.gls" is this related? if yes what is the .gls for? – fmsf Jul 8 '12 at 10:18

@fmsf: Have you placed \makeglossaries somewhere after \usepackage{glossaries}? – mhp Jul 8 '12 at 10:20
@mhp edited the code on top with the position of the make glossaries. still doesn't work :( (i'm really lost) – fmsf Jul 8 '12 at 10:24
