How to retrieve bridging headers that has been lost - swift

I was trying to put a facebook login in my app. I'm also checking some of the tutorials that'll help me to do this. Then i have created a header file that i also delete since that i wasn't able to accomplished the tutorial that i'm watching. Then all of a sudden, i'm having an error that stating...
Briding Header 'Users/mac/Desktop/App
Files/myApp/myApp-Bridging-Header.h' does not exist
I don't know why is that happening. I try to delete my .swift file and replace it with the same name then it still having an error. I even try to make a .swift file with a different name but still having an error as well.

In build settings.. in “Swift Compiler -Code Generation”—> Objective-C Bridging Header — “reset the Path of Bridging header file”
How to create a Swift Bridging Header Manually
Add a new file to Xcode (File > New > File), then select “Source” and
click “Header File“.
Name your file “YourProjectName-Bridging-Header.h”. Example: In my
app Station, the file is named “Station-Bridging-Header”.
Create the file.
Navigate to your project build settings and find the “Swift Compiler
– Code Generation” section. You may find it faster to type in “Swift
Compiler” into the search box to narrow down the results. Note: If
you don’t have a “Swift Compiler – Code Generation” section, this
means you probably don’t have any Swift classes added to your project
yet. Add a Swift file, then try again.
Next to “Objective-C Bridging Header” you will need to add the
name/path of your header file. If your file resides in your project’s
root folder simply put the name of the header file there. Examples:
“ProjectName/ProjectName-Bridging-Header.h” or simply
“ProjectName-Bridging-Header.h”.
Open up your newly created bridging header and import your
Objective-C classes using #import statements. Any class listed in
this file will be able to be accessed from your swift classes.

Even if I don't use obj-c, do I have to make a header file to modularize the app?

I'm studying a clean architecture project.(https://github.com/sergdort/CleanArchitectureRxSwift) In this project, each directory creates a header file and references the class through a header file in a different directory file. I think they made it like this for modularity. I searched for it, and it seems that the header file is only used to insert the obj-c code into the Swift code. Is it common to make header files just for modularity without using obj-c?

Sqlite for custom swift framework

I am creating a custom swift framework for managing all common data of my applications like data base or common classes.
I import the library "libsqlite3.0.tbd" in Linked Frameworks and Libraries, but when I try to put #import "sqlite3.h" in my Umbrella header file, I recite the next error:
Include of non-modular header inside framework module
Any idea?
Thank you very much
Step by Step what I did with my sqlite project for it to work, try this (keep the library added and the #import statement in the header):
First, remove the Header from Build Phases >> Headers.
Then go to Build Settings and add the path to the Header in the Objective-C Bridging Header. If you just created the Framework, didn't change the name of the .h file and your project is called Test, for example, the path will be Teste/Test.h (Xcode 7.1.1).
Hope it works.

Header file for included static library not found by swift bridging header during archive

I've run into a very vexing problem.
I've included a 3rd party static library (PDFKitten) into my project, which is a mixture of Swift and Objective-C code. I can build & test just fine in simulator and device.
However, when trying to do an Archive build ready to submit to the app store, the Swift compiler complains that the header PDFKitten/PDFKitten.h cannot be found.
Reproducing this is easy:
Create an empty Swift iOS project in Xcode.
Grab the PDF Kitten project and add it as a sub project.
Add the PDFKitten lib as a dependency
Create an objective-c source file to force the creation of the bridging header. Once the bridging header is created, you can delete the empty objective-c source file again (not the header!)
In the bridging header, add #import
An ordinary build will have no issues.
If you then try to do an archive build you'll get the error message.
Any ideas?
I had the same issue. I was able to get it to archive error-free once I added the path to the "Not Found" header file (in your case, PDFKitten.h) into the Header Search Paths portion of the app's Build Settings.

Static Library path nightmare from hell

This is the point. I have a subproject (static library) created. The library compiles well. No errors. When I include this library inside a project and imports a header from that library on the project the library fails to compile because it cannot find a path that belongs to itself.
After following a bunch of tutorials on the web on how to create a static library and embed that in a project, I don't know which one is the correct one, because I have tried all and all failed and some differ.
This is how the library is set:
STATIC LIBRARY
BUILD SETTINGS:
Public header folder path = $(BUILT_PRODUCTS_DIR)
Header search path = $(SRCROOT) (recursive)
BUILD PHASES
COPY FILES = 1 file, myLibrary.h that is basically empty (created by xcode when I used the static library template to start the library.
no ADD COPY HEADERS phase
MAIN PROJECT
BUILD SETTINGS
Header search path = empty
User header search path = $(BUILT_PRODUCTS_DIR) (recursive)
Always search user paths = YES
BUILD PHASES
Yes, myLibrary.a is on target dependencies
What amazes me is that the library compiles fine alone but when put inside a project, is unable to find a header that belongs to the own library.
NOTE: I have also tried to create a copy headers phase on the library making public all .h on that library, but it failed too.
This is an example of one error:
/Users/mike/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/MyApp-dnaimaovscreasadhmvgttwjnabc/Build/Products/Debug-iphoneos/include/myLibrary/ccTypes.h:39:9:
fatal error: 'Platforms/CCGL.h' file not found
#import "Platforms/CCGL.h"
I have lost two days trying to solve this nightmare.
any thoughts?
I have uploaded a sample project to here and here
After downloading your sample project, I had it working in a few minutes by making the following changes.
First, you need to add an entry for the MyProject target's Build Settings under Header Search Paths, so that the files such as HelloWorldLayer.h, which #import "cocos2d.h", know where to find that file.
Under the Header Search Paths, I entered ../MyStaticLibrary/MyStaticLibrary/libs/** like shown in the image below:
That solved the problem of the inability of the preprocessor to find the necessary source files from the MyStaticLibrary, for the MyProject project, but after compiling, I got an error about missing symbols. I needed to add the built libMyStaticLibrary.a to the Link Binary With Libraries step like shown in the image below:
After that, the project compiles fine.
(Not enough rep to post comment...)
Did you try specifically including the Platforms directory in the header search path? Presumably, Platforms is in the source directory, not in $(BUILT_PRODUCTS_DIR) so may not be searched in your current setting.
Regarding script to show you env variables, here's how I do it (open images at the new tab for better scaling):
Added dummy shell script
Observed its output at Log Navigator
As you can see, BUILT_PRODUCTS_DIR doesn't have any headers copied from the library. Either put headers there manually (strongly not recommended) or add search path to the location that you know the headers must be at:
Now as there were two headers cocos2d.h and MyStaticLibrary.h, cocos2d.h was successfully imported although it will have additional dependency.
The path ../MyStaticLibrary/build/$(BUILD_STYLE)-$(PLATFORM_NAME) will also (recursively) have public headers of the library.
After almost 5 days of a nightmare trying to solve that, I finally found this tutorial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XUhLETxgcoE
This is the only solution that worked for me. The simplest and the best.
Thanks for every one trying to solve this.
Please try this…
step1: right click on the 'projectName.xcodeproj'(static library).Choose 'Get info' and copy the full path from(General->where)
step2: Paste full path to 'Header search paths' for your main project(Both Targets and Project )

How to invoked methods of external .h files in iphone

to all
In my iphone game I want to add external .h and .a files. I am adding them by using add project option given in Xcode. It get added but I want to invoked the methods given in the header files. As per instruction given to us we have to call one method which is declared in external header file. We have to call that method inside AppDelegate's applicationDidFinishLaunching method . But at the time of compilation it gives one error that is referenced from: and symbol not found. I don't understand how to invoked this method and how to get referenced for the method.
I am sending one link please see that. The same problem with my application is coming.

In that three screen shots are given by some toddburch on Jan 24, 2009, 07:37 AM
The same error for my methods are also coming but my code is in Cocoa with objective-c not in ruby.
If anyone know the solution please reply me As soon as possible.
The .h is not enough. You also need the implementation, either source code or compiled framework.
Do you have access to the source code itself? Try dragging the .h and .m/.c files from the framework directory directly into your project. It's a little messy, but I think it will solve your problem based on the error messages you are getting. You can put them all in a group so your project doesn't look so crowded after you drag them over if you like.
You currently have two files
A *.h header file which describes the classes and functions available in your third party library
A *.a static library file which holds the pre-compiled code for the functions described by the *.h file.
Assuming you've got to the stage where you can #include or #import "xyz.h" and compile your application, the bit which is missing is linking your executable with the *.a file.
The symbol not found error message is the linker telling you it knows some of your code is calling a particular function, but it can't currently find another code module that provides an implementation of that function.
One thing to check is that your *.a file is correctly configured within your project to be passed to the linker. One way to do this is to expand the "Targets" section of the main XCode window. If you drill down into the section representing your application you should see a subnode labeled "Link Binaries with Libraries". Your *.a file should be listed, if it isn't one way to add it is to simple drag and drop the file into this section.
