Long story short, I have two settings files that must have the same name. They're currently in separate folders, something like:
Resources/brand/dev/settings.file
Resources/brand/prod/settings.file
However I can't seem to get Swift to grab the file out, it always comes up as nil
var file = Bundle.main.path(forResource:"settings", ofType:"file", inDirectory:"Resources/brand/dev")
If I remove one of the files, and the inDirectory parameter everything works fine.
File target membership, project build phases all look OK.
Am I missing something here?
Setting files must be added to XCode with the option 'Create folder references'

I'm just trying to begin develop a game in Marmalade (6.3). But when I have made my new sources (.cpp, and .h) and added them to the mkb, and then trying to run my program, then I got an error which says that Unable to find file.cpp in path(s). It's for all of my files except the files (game.h, game.cpp, main.cpp) which were made by Marmalade when I have chosen the new 2D game project. Should I add my .cpp and .h files to anywhere else?
Thanks
It is difficult to give a categorical answer without more info. However my guess is that you've copied and pasted from an example and not understood about the syntax of the files section. Basically:
files
{
(foo)
humbug.cpp
)
The "(foo)" might look very innocent, but it actually says that humbug.cpp is actually in directory foo - relative to the mkb file. It is common practice to actually use "(source)" and put all the source files in a directory of that name - making the source layout a bit neater.
Naturally if you have (source) and don't put the files actually in directory source, they won't be found. My guess is that is what you are seeing.
Just to clarify previous answer, The format of files directive is like this -
files
{
(<Path relative to MKB>,<Alternate Path>)
["Name of the parent Group in VS/XCode project","Name of the subparent group"]
fileName.cpp
fileName.h
}
for example I have two files SoundManager.h and SoundManager.cpp in System folder of Source, while MainMenu.h and MainMenu.cpp in Source/UI. Now the files directive would be -
files
{
(Source/System)
["Source","System"] #This part is not required, it's just to arrange your files in IDE project
SoundManager.h
SoundManager.cpp
(Source/UI)
("Source","UI")
MainMenu.h
ManinMenu.cpp
}
I started doing development with google scripts few days ago and recently joined stackoverflow. I have a problem with addToFolder() function. I have the following piece of code that copies my new spreadsheet into a folder (test/sheets) in my Google Drive:
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.create("test");
var ssID = ss.getId();
DocsList.getFileById(ssID).addToFolder(DocsList.getFolder("test/sheets"));
My problem is that now I have 2 versions of the same file (one in the root of my Google Drive folder and the other in test/sheets folder), whenever I try to delete either of the copies, the other copy is deleted as well. Is there a way to delete the old file and keep the new one OR is there a way to create the file in the desired folder in first place?
EDIT :
thanks for you quick response. I played with this for couple of hours but still have problem copying the file to the destination folder. The problem is that even when I use makeCopy Method of the file, still addToFolder is the only option to mention the folder. Again this ends up having the tagged filename in the destination folder.
I had the same problem with the copy method.
Here is my new Code:
var SetLocationFile = "icompare/sheets/stocks"
var FolderID = DocsList.getFolder(SetLocationFile);
var FileID = DocsList.getFileById(ssID);
FileID.makeCopy("test3").addToFolder(FolderID);
Folders in Google Docs\Google Drive are actually tags. When you "add" a file to the folder "test/sheets", you do not make a copy of your file, you just attach the tag "test/sheets" to it. Now the same file is shown both in the "test/sheets" folder (i.e. in the list of all files with the tag "test/sheets") and in the root. If you wish to make a copy of the file, you should use the copy method. (Please let me know if I just misunderstand your question.)
I realize this is an old questions but you can simply use .removeFromFolder(DocsList.getRootFolder()); to remove the file from the root folder.
I would also like to know the answer to this question.. seems rather "weird" that the API does not even provide a way to create spreadsheets and place them in a certain map? And no, I do not want a Copy of the file, I want the file to be in a specific map and in no other map...
Can anyone please help me? What should i do to fix the error "The file InfoPlist.strings couldn't be opened because there's no such file"? It's appeared after i've updated my project from SVN. Actually THERE IS InfoPlist.strings in my project, i have no idea why Xcode doesn't see it.
Maybe the following information will help you to understand what's going on: when i expand InfoPlist.strings by clicking on the triangle next to it, then it shows: InfoPlist.strings (English), InfoPlist.strings(German), InfoPlist.strings(French). The English is black, but French and German are red, so i suppose it is probable something wrong with them and it might be the cause of the error. Also, i've got Localizable.strings, which behaves in similar way. It has (when expanded) Localizable.strings (English), Localizable.strings(German), Localizable.strings(French) and just as in InfoPlist.strings English is black whereas French and German are red.
When i look inside my project's folder - there is the following there: a folder named en.lproj contains Localizable.strings and InfoPlist.strings. Folders named fr.lproj and de.lproj contains the same - Localizable.strings and InfoPlist.strings. Seems like i've described everything. Please explain me what to do. I work with Xcode 4.2
I have just managed to fix this problem !
My second Strings.plist file (FR) had an absolute path. The drop down menu for path type (absolute, relative) was greyed out in the info pane of xcode so I could not change it to a relative path.
The solution is to change it manually in the project.pbxproj file:
If you open the file to view the source, and search for "plist", find the following line:
/* fr */ = {isa = PBXFileReference; lastKnownFileType = text.plist.strings; name = fr; path = /Users/[YOUR-USER]/[PATH_TO_PROJECT]/fr.lproj/InfoPlist.strings; sourceTree = "<absolute>"; };
Notice that the path attribute is the full path to the file, and that the sourceTree attribute is set to <absolute>.
Now change the path so that it's relative:
/Users/[YOUR-USER]/[PATH_TO_PROJECT]/fr.lproj/InfoPlist.strings
should become
fr.lproj/InfoPlist.strings
Also change the sourceTree value from <absolute> to <group>
The line should now look like this:
/* fr */ = {isa = PBXFileReference; lastKnownFileType = text.plist.strings; name = fr; path = fr.lproj/InfoPlist.strings; sourceTree = "<group>"; };
Repeat these steps for all your localizations that are stuck with absolute paths.
Save the file, commit the changes, and voilà! no more no such file problem :)
info.plist source code:
like:
....
{isa = PBXFileReference; lastKnownFileType = text.plist.strings; name = en; path = en.lproj/InfoPlist.strings; sourceTree = ""; };
....
check "path" is a absolute path?
Had the same problem, easy fix for me: select the plist file in xcode and make sure its "Target Membership" is ON (for the build you are doing).
The path to your Info.plist file is defined in the build settings for the target. Look and see what it's set to. If the project has come from a different machine, it might be an absolute path, but it really should be a path relative to the project root, like Sources/Info.plist.
Best information is right here. Sorry to be so cheesy as to put a link to this - but they edited it in September - and now it makes sense...

I just recreated the files (with empty content) it asked for in the paths it asked for them, since I am new to XCode and it didn't seem to affect my current project I decided that was a acceptable solution/shortcut to proceed.
The solution for this particular instance of the error was “Info.plist couldn't be opened because there is no such file” was that I had deleted all of the files in the "Project Tests" folder, but was still had "Project Tests" listed under my targets. After deleting the "tests" target, the project built successfully.
I got this error when i pulled my cohort's changes to my local so that i can review and test them. I checked all settings suggested in this thread but they all looked correct-ish. My fix was just to blow away the branch, reset to master and pull the updates to a clean branch. The ol' reboot everything technique.
I created a project without checking "use CoreData". The Project name is "glossary"
Now I changed my mind and so for I added an data model usinng Add->New File->Resource->Data Model->gave it the name Glossary->didn`t select any class->Finish.
The next step was to design my Data Model.
Then I added the needed Code to my AppDelegate.
For all Steps i was following this Tutorial:
https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/DataManagement/Conceptual/iPhoneCoreData01/Introduction/Introduction.html%23//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40008305-CH1-SW1
My problem now is located in this line:
NSURL *modelURL = [[NSBundle mainBundle] URLForResource:#"glossary" withExtension:#"momd"]
modelURL is always nill
Creating an extra NSBundle Ref and calling mainBundle shows me that this is working, however i don`t know if it is really the right path.
Doing the same Steps on an project with selected "use CoreData" while creating works great.
Has anybody an idea?
It has to do with model versioning. You want to add a versioned model (item in Xcode project tree will have .xcdatamodeld extension) and then your code will run smoothly.
In Xcode 4 when you add a new Core Data file it is versioned by default. Even if you added Core Data support after project creation.
If you don't plan to have model versions, just use .mom in your code.
I'm not 100 % sure, but URLForResource does work for files only and momd is directory.
URLForResource documentation: The method first looks for a matching resource file in the nonlocalized resource directory of the specified bundle. (In Mac OS X, this directory is typically called Resources but in iOS, it is the main bundle directory.) If a matching resource file is not found, it then looks in the top level of any available language-specific “.lproj” directories. (The search order for the language-specific directories corresponds to the user’s preferences.) It does not recurse through other subdirectories at any of these locations. For more details see Bundles and Localization.
I'm trying to add the item
<key>UIStatusBarHidden</key><true/>
to my plist that's auto-generated by CMake. For certain keys, it appears there are pre-defined ways to add an item; for example:
set(MACOSX_BUNDLE_ICON_FILE ${ICON})
But I can't find a way to add an arbitrary property.
I tried using the MACOSX_BUNDLE_INFO_PLIST target property as follows: I'd like the resulting plist to be identical to the old one, except with the new property I want, so I just copied the auto-generated plist and set that as my template. But the plist uses some Xcode variables, which also look like ${foo}, and CMake grumbles about this:
Syntax error in cmake code when
parsing string
<string>com.bedaire.${PRODUCT_NAME:identifier}</string>
syntax error, unexpected cal_SYMBOL,
expecting } (47)
Policy CMP0010 is not set: Bad
variable reference syntax is an error.
Run "cmake --help-policy CMP0010"
for policy details. Use the
cmake_policy command to set the
policy and suppress this warning. This
warning is for project developers.
Use -Wno-dev to suppress it.
In any case, I'm not even sure that this is the right thing to do. I can't find a good example or any good documentation about this. Ideally, I'd just let CMake generate everything as before, and just add a single extra line. What can I do?
Have you looked into copying the relevant *.plist.in file in /opt/local/share/cmake-2.8/Modules (such as MacOSXBundleInfo.plist.in), editing it to put <key>UIStatusBarHidden</key><true/> (or #VAR_TO_REPLACE_BY_CMAKE#), and adding the directory of the edited version in the CMAKE_MODULE_PATH?
If you have CMake installed as an app bundle, then the location of that file is /Applications/CMake.app/Contents/share/cmake-N.N/Modules
You can add your values using # and pass #ONLY to configure_file.
Unfortunately there is no simple way to add custom line to generated file.
