I just included AWSIOSSDK.framework and Facebook SDK together in my project, then got a build error:
ld: duplicate symbol _OBJC_METACLASS_$_SBJsonParser in /Users/tom8/Desktop/site1/site1/facebook-ios-sdk/libfacebook_ios_sdk.a(SBJsonParser.o) and /Users/tom8/Desktop/AWSiOSSDK.framework/AWSiOSSDK(SBJsonParser.o) for architecture i386
I use iOS Facebook SDK Static Library, so i could not simply delete sbjson files in facebooksdk folder. I also tried to delete sbjson files in AWSIOSSDK folder, but it also did not work. Could someone give me some advice?
Almost without exception, when I get duplicate symbol build errors, it's because I was #include-ing .h files too prolifically from other .h files. The solution is almost always these two simple steps:
move as many #include directives into .m files as possible
use #protocol and #class forward-declarations in .h files.
The only cases where you need to #include an .h from an .h is when you actually extend a class or implement a protocol. If you just need to use a class name or protocol name in a signature, use forward declarations and move the #include to the .m file.
Example:
foo.h
#include "Bar.h"
#include "BazProtocol.h"
#include "BarDelegateProtocol.h"
#interface Foo:NSObject <BarDelegate>
#property (strong, nonatomic) id<Baz> myBaz;
#property (strong, nonatomic) Bar *myBar;
#end
becomes
#include "BarDelegateProtocol.h"
#class Bar;
#protocol Baz;
#interface Foo:NSObject
#property (strong, nonatomic) id<Baz> myBaz;
#property (strong, nonatomic) Bar *myBar;
#end
I had the same problem too. You can delete the files from the Facebook Project itself, but you cannot delete from the framework.
So click:
facebook-ios-sdk.xcodeproj (to open up file contents) -> FBConnect (to view folder contents) -> JSON (to view folder contents) -> remove SBJsonWriter and SBJsonParser.
Try compiling. You should be good to go!

I have been mixing Swift and Objective C just fine but I'm having issues gaining access to a Swift class from the HEADER file of Objective C. I can do so successfully in the .m file.
Within the .h file I import the Xcode generated file that has the format "Appname-Swift.h". However, in doing so I get the message that the file is not found. I can do this same import in my .m file with no issue. However, I need it in the .h file as I reference a Swift class that I need access to with public API.
How can I make use of the Swift class from the .h portion of Objective C?
Example:
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#import "MyApp-Swift.h"
#interface SelectedContactsVC : UIViewController
#property (nonatomic,strong) MapVC *mapVC;
#end
MapVC above is a Swift class.
Move #import "MyApp-Swift.h" to .m file.
And make your .h file as:
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#class MapVC;
#interface SelectedContactsVC : UIViewController
#property (nonatomic,strong) MapVC *mapVC;
#end
Swift cannot generate "MyApp-Swift.h", if it's imported from Objective-C header, sort of mutual dependency thing maybe.
i have 15 to 20 Variable i wants access it in my whole project. what is the best place for defining it and why?.. Appdelegate File, .Pch file or define these Extern.
really thanks in Advance.
Accessing your app delegate from various points of your app creates a strong coupling between these components of your app.
Basically you are using globals through your app which is usually a good indication for an improvable application design.
Variables usually do not live in thin air. They exist in a context. For example if you are using username and password you should get them from the system's keychain. The whole authentification process should be wrapped in an authentification class in which you would define the properties.
If you need to access information from various places of your app, you have to pass them as arguments of the initializer for example. This btw renders your individual components testable which is a good thing.
My advice is to rethink your app design first to not end in dependency hell later on.
You can define them as properties in your AppDelegate class. For example:
#interface AppDelegate : UIResponder <UIApplicationDelegate>
#property (retain, nonatomic) NSString *publicString;
If you want to make them readonly for external objects then you can define as follows:
1) in AppDelegate.h
#interface AppDelegate : UIResponder <UIApplicationDelegate>
#property (retain, readonly, nonatomic) NSString *publicString;
2) in AppDelegate.m
#interface AppDelegate ()
#property (retain, readwrite, nonatomic) NSString *publicString;
#end
#implementation AppDelegate
#synthesize publicString;
// other methods below
#end
Create one header file by name 'defines.h' and implement all defines and constants in it.
import this file in .Pch file
This is the best one, and will be separate from other classes.
I am including a file like this:
#import "BannerPhoneContentController.h"
however, when I try to use it like this:
bannerContentController = [[BannerPhoneContentController alloc] init];
I get the error:
Use of undeclared identifier 'BannerPhoneContentController';
what could be causing the code to seemingly ignore my import?
this is the header for banner content controller.
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
#import "BannerContentController.h"
#interface BannerPhoneContentController : BannerContentController <UIScrollViewDelegate>
{
UIScrollView *scrollView;
UIPageControl *pageControl;
NSMutableArray *viewControllers;
// To be used when scrolls originate from the UIPageControl
BOOL pageControlUsed;
}
#property (nonatomic, retain) UIScrollView *scrollView;
#property (nonatomic, retain) UIPageControl *pageControl;
#property (nonatomic, retain) NSMutableArray *viewControllers;
- (IBAction)changePage:(id)sender;
#end
EDIT bannerContentController is of type BannerContentController NOT BannerPhoneContentController. The latter is a subtype of the former. It is definitely worth noting that this exact code works just fine in another app, so it's nothing to do with the code itself - just how it's being included apparently. I'm stumped.
EDIT ok found the problem - not sure how to fix it. I generated the preprocessed file and the header file it's included is in fact this:
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
#import "ContentController.h"
#interface PhoneContentController : ContentController <UIScrollViewDelegate>
{
UIScrollView *scrollView;
UIPageControl *pageControl;
NSMutableArray *viewControllers;
// To be used when scrolls originate from the UIPageControl
BOOL pageControlUsed;
}
#property (nonatomic, retain) UIScrollView *scrollView;
#property (nonatomic, retain) UIPageControl *pageControl;
#property (nonatomic, retain) NSMutableArray *viewControllers;
- (IBAction)changePage:(id)sender;
#end
note the difference - all the 'Banner's are missing. This is what the file used to look like. However, I've checked and the file that's in the project is the one I posted at the top. I tried cleaning the solution and building again. How can I fix this and why has it happened?
EDIT The file that I'm including all this in is part of a code library. I have now created a new project, imported the code library and included all of this in that library once again in exactly the same way. and it works. I have looked over the two projects and the code in question is identical. This must be a project setting?
It looks for me like recursive import. Say, BannerContentController.h imports BannerPhoneContentController.h, and BannerPhoneContentController.h imports BannerContentController.h.
If it is the case, then you should resolve recursive dependencies. E.g. using forward declaration.
does using #class BannerPhoneContentController in .h and #import "BannerPhoneContentController.h" in .m gives the same result ?
After a lot of messing around, and thanks to a comment from Yuras I generated the preprocessed code and realised the problem was that the OLD version of the code was being included.
More useful is WHY. It's just a bug in XCode that happens sometimes when incremental linking is turned on - basically this is where time is saved by only changing the parts of the pre-processed file when the corresponding bits of your code have been altered. Unfortunately, this does not alway work correctly.
The solution, annoyingly, was to delete the files, clean the build, delete the derived data (window / oraniser / projects / project name / delete derived data), restart xcode (possibly also restart your computer, or throw it out of the window and buy a new one) then re-import the files.
XCode can be a real pain...
I have a problem about making Mobile Substrate tweaks for iOS 5.
Most tutorial about making Cydia tweaks have this step: "Download private framework headers".
So, I downloaded it from : https://github.com/kennytm/iphone-private-frameworks
Since the private-frameworks are dumped from iOS 3.x, some new methods and variables are not included.
Therefore, I added these variables to my Tweak.xm. And I imported the private-framework-headers too.
For example:
#import "/opt/theos/include/UIKit/UIKit2.h"
#import "/opt/theos/include/UIKit/UIKeyboardLayoutStar.h"
#interface UIKeyboardImpl : UIView
#property(assign, nonatomic) BOOL showsCandidateInline;
#property(assign, nonatomic) BOOL showsCandidateBar;
#end
However, when I compile the tweak, I got these errors:
Tweak.xm:45: error: duplicate interface declaration for class ‘UIKeyboardImpl’
Tweak.xm:45: error: redefinition of ‘struct UIKeyboardImpl’
Tweak.xm:45: error: trying to finish struct, but kicked out due to previous parse errors
How can I do to fix this problem ?
Should I edit the private framework headers of iOS 3 and add new variables from iOS 5?
Thanks a lot
Adding a category will fix it.
#interface UIKeyboardImpl (YourCategory)
#property(assign, nonatomic) BOOL showsCandidateInline;
#property(assign, nonatomic) BOOL showsCandidateBar;
#end
I am trying to migrate my sandpit code into my main project but for some reason I am getting the following strange error when trying to compile
syntax error before 'NSManagedObjectModel'
At first I thought this was because coredata wasnt in the prefix.pch file but I have added it in there too.
This is the top of AppDelegate where the code is being used (straight out of an Apple example)
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#import "AppSettings.h"
#import "Skin.h"
#interface JeanieAppDelegate : NSObject <UIApplicationDelegate> {
NSManagedObjectModel *managedObjectModel;
NSManagedObjectContext *managedObjectContext;
NSPersistentStoreCoordinator *persistentStoreCoordinator;
#import <CoreData/CoreData.h> and don't forget to link it in.
Also, beware adding just anything to your .pch file. When you do so, those header files will be included all throughout your projectYou should only really put things there that are truly going to be universally required all through your project.
