I am writing the Network detection stuff for my app but when I go to Link Binary with Libraries and add SystemConfiguration.framework it appears red, and my app breaks. Has anyone got any ideas on why it might be doing this and how I can solve it?
You could have deleted it from your project by accident I have done this in the past when you delete you must have move to trash instead of remove reference, I had to download xcode again to get it back.
It may be a case of either the Framework simply not being added to the project properly, or, worst case, as it has been suggested here, you could have deleted the framework itself from your Mac altogether.
Here a few things you can try out,
Does the framework not appear at all on the project navigator in XCode? Or does it appear red? In either case, go to the 'Linked Frameworks and Libraries' section in your Target summary, and click the '+' button to try and add the framework.
If the framework exists in this list, no problem, simply add it again, and you should be all good.
If its not there at ALL, then this looks like you may have deleted the framework from you machine altogether. If so, you can either reinstall XCode, or you could simply get that framework folder from a colleagues machine and drop it in the frameworks folder.

I've done a bit of swift, but I've never tried to use a third party package before. I created a brand new swift app, with Mac/iOS version and tests from the wizard. I went to xcode, right clicked on the sidebar, and chose add packages, and put in a package by url:
https://github.com/witekbobrowski/EPUBKit.git
It goes away for a little bit - and three package dependencies appear on my screen:
and when I look at my project settings, I can see them there:
(I actually added the zip package separately after the first one didn't work, just to test it, wondering whether something was wrong with the package)
Anyway - I can now see the packages, browse into them, see code or whatever - and the package found its own dependencies, so everything looks like it's working fine. But if I go into my swift app main, and add
import EPUBKit
or
import Zip
it just says "No such module ...".
I've obviously missed a step - what am I doing wrong - how do I fix it? I don't even know how to investigate it, because everything I look at just looks completely fine and I don't get any errors. I tried cleaning builds, restarting Xcode, using the real version of Xcode 13.2.1, using Xcode 13.3 beta - and nothing works.
NEW LEARNINGS
so - I tried changing how I'm running it to produce an IOS app - and it's working fine - but when I produce a Mac app, it's like the package isn't even there? Why would that be, and how do I make it work for Mac as well as IOS?
Author of EPUBKit here, thanks for taking interest in my library!
The issue is reproducible in a new project which kinda makes sense but don't at the same time. I am glad Xcode is not adding a package to every single target in my project but at the same time why does it assume that I want it in the iOS target? Anyway, I know that this question was already answered in the comment and the problem is solved but I might as well just drop more detailed instructions. Maybe it will help someone.
1. Select Project from Project Navigator
Select te target that is not working for you, in this case it's the macOS target. In the General tab you will see the Frameworks, Libraries, and Embedded Content section. If the package is missing from the list, tap the plus button at the bottom.
2. Add Missing Library
Look for the one you are missing, in this case its of course EPUBKit and tap the Add button.
3. Success
Now the library is successfully added to your target. Go ahead and build the project to run and enjoy your app :)
I just used Xcode's refactoring tool to rename a core data class from Player to Person. After fixing about 100 errors resulting from using dot notation that Xcode missed in the rename, I got to the last one:
Player.m - Lexical or Preprocessor issue - 'Person.h' not found
Player.m no longer exists in the project, and shows up as deleted (empty icon) in the error. Obviously, since I got rid of it, I don't want it to exist anymore!
To fix this, I have tried re-adding an old copy of Player.h and Player.m, and also cleaning. I have checked the Build Phases->Compile Sources section, and Person.m is there, Player.m is not. Person.h does in fact exist.
Not sure if it matters, but I am using mogenerator to generate my core data classes. Also, this is my third xcdatamodel version. Versions 1 and 2 used Player.h.
Here is a screenshot of the error:
Try clean build, if that doesn't work, restart Xcode, if that doesn't, delete the DerivedData directory, maybe even reboot.
Xcode sometimes gets confused.
You can try to do a super clean (not sure what the real term is) by hitting Cmd+Alt+Shift+K. This performs a clean and removes everything from the build folder.
Well I had a very similar problem and solve it removing the missing compile source of my project settings. to do that follow these steps
Click at the project page. This page contains the general settings
of your app
Select Build phases.
In Build Phases section, select compile sources.
If there is missing some class or file or something that needs to be compiled.
Select water mark file and click the minus sign at the bottom of this section.
Just click and the project may run. I hope this help others.
Recently I tried to build a flash application in Flash Builder, and I wanted to export it to my iPhone. I have gone through all the required steps in order to certify my application.
Now, with all that done, all that was left to be done is building the ".ipa" file in Flash Builder. Now, this gives the following error:
'Launching TestGame' has encountered a problem.
Error occurred while packaging the application:
NotBefore: Wed Apr 11 18:52:40 CEST 2012
Google didn't give me a decent answer, nor does Adobe's information regarding mobile application development. All I can think off, is that I can't build the application before that date. That's ridiculous, I can't imagine a certain check like that.
I'm pretty sure my ".p12" key file is generated correctly.
Is anyone else familiar with this error? Please, be so kind to guide me in the right direction.
Kind regards,
Matthias.
The error occurs because the compiler didn't find the files under the corresponding directory such as debug-bin or release-bin folder. (explains from: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/893772)
For example, if you are doing a debug-build, and you didn't select the project option: copy non-embeded files to the output folder. And debug-build needs some files such as icons files under the debug-bin folder, and it couldn't find it.
Solution: select project compiling option: the copy non-embeded file to the output folder.
Try again, if still not you will need to try the ADT build to get more details http://help.adobe.com/en_US/air/build/WS901d38e593cd1bac35eb7b4e12cddc5fbbb-8000.html
I suggest compiling from command line. I'd ported an AIR app to iOS and compiled using adt dirrectly (without FB or whatever), and there were more meanful messages then yours. Take a look at the manual on how to build ipa wit adt. The other advise is to check your iPhone node in app.xml (take a look here) and icons.
The "error" was thrown because the certificate wasn't valid yet. It became valid on the date shown above.
You could also fix the manifest file in the iOS developers center.
This problem does come up more often than needed. The error reporting is lacking distinctions but is also difficult to asses since there can be many factors causing this error. If it was one factor or even just a few then it would most likely let you know.
A great way to ensure that the error reporting can do its job and tell you where the problem is is to check your error log. It will tell you at least a few of the places that threw the block.
If you are unable to read those strange glyphs then just ensure that all your resources are being packaged. This does mean a little time of list checking but it is well worth it, for the errors and to get rid of development junk.
The first step in the asset list check is to go through each part of your Assets class (flash builder reference). If you do not have a direct Assets class then you may want to make one and move all of your asset calls to that one class - since it will save you time if this happens again.
Your Assets class is not the same as your Assets folder. Your folder is where the files are stored - i.e. images, bitmaps, sounds, etc. Your Assets class is what categorizes and assigns references to each individual file.
Go through your Assets class to ensure that each of those files exist in the folder as well. Then go to the Project menu (top near Navigate and Search) and select Clean. Either clean all your projects or check the current one. Once this is done you need to click on your Assets Folder (right click or highlight and hit edit or whatever), and select Refresh. This will check that all the files are still there and get rid of/update them.
If none of this throws an error -red X- or other errors then you need to check your project .xml file. This may take you some time to ensure that all of your add on packages and details are correct. Make sure you have the correct:
at the top and it matches your current air release.
Make sure all the filenames, names, ids, version numbers, aspect ratios, fullscreen, visible, icons, extensionIDs, and everything else are not only correct but actually there. Most of these statements should have something written and not be blank. If they are blank find out what to put in.
Ensure that you have the proper icon file extension. If it says assets/icon48.png and the icon48.png is actually in assets/pictures/images/icons/toomanyfilesextensions/whatever/icon48.png
you need to fix that link.
The last thing that you will need to check is when you want to either Release Build or Debug. You need to make sure that all assets are checked and selected.
Go to Project - Properties.
then select ActionScript Build Path.
Click the Native Extensions tab and see if there are any red X's. If there are tap the little arrow beside them and see what the matter it. Add the correct ANE or get rid of it or whatever you need to do.
Then in the same menu go to the left and select ActionScript Build Packaging. A little arrow should be beside that one too. Tap the arrow and it will open to Apple iOS, BlackBerry, Gooogle and whatever else you have (probably nothing more). Select the OS your want to use, lets say Apple, and you will have 4 tabs pop up. Make sure you have the correct certificates selected. If you have none or are confused about this you need to spend some time on Google.
The biggest one for this error is under the Package Contents tab. Most people miss this!
Open the tab and see if anything is not checked. There will 99.99% be something or many of them not checked if you are getting this error. Just check them all and you can figure out what you need and don't need later. Some of them will be listed because you just threw in a bunch of ANEs and .SWFs to have some awesome app. Those add on packages will throw in unnecessary contents into this package. That is fine and don't worry until you want to be picky. Just make sure they are all selected and hit Apply and Ok.
That's it. You should have a working Release Build if you did everything else correct and this error should be easy from now on (but time wasting).
You may get a 'slip' error now, but that is another story. But that is a great sign because you are getting closer to that stupid mistake that we all make: the elusive spelling mistake.
Lately any framework I attempt to add to my project fails with "No such file or directory".
Eg for GameKit:
<GameKit/GameKit.h>: No such file or directory
The strange thing is that the frameworks that I added some time ago are found, but if i try to add the same framework now, I get this error. Where should I look? Hope I don't have to re-install xcode for this:(
To add a framework I use the steps described here (to remove the suspicion that I don't add it in the right manner):
How to "add existing frameworks" in Xcode 4?
Also I've checked here:
/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS4.3.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/GameKit.framework/
and the framework does exist. The base SDK is set to 4.3(latest), so that's not the problem either.
I'm not sure if this is going to work, but I use another method to add frameworks, which is go to your project (The one with the xcodeproj icon), then click on your target. There, you can add the frameworks you want.
If that doesn't work, then try go to /Library/Frameworks to see if your framework you want is still there. If it's there and it's still getting that error, try manually adding the framework which is the add other button when you add a framework.
It must not exist. It either got deleted or never existed to begin with, which makes me think it must have got deleted. Sorry, buddy.
I'm getting this error when building my iPhone application:
ld: warning: in /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS3.1.sdk/System/Library
/Frameworks/UIKit.framework/UIKit, missing required architecture i386 in file
It goes the same for all the frameworks in my app. It's very weird since this was not happening earlier.
This happens when you add a framework to your project and unintentionally copy the framework into your project directory.
The fix is to check your project directory (where you store your project on disk) for any iphone SDK *.Framework files and delete them.
Project will build fine afterwards.
I had this same problem, and the solution turned out to be an easy fix. Backup then open project.pbxproj (located inside your project file bundle) in TextMate or TextEdit and search for the section titled "/* Begin XCBuildConfiguration section */". Look for a key named FRAMEWORK_SEARCH_PATHS and delete it and it's contents (once per build configuration, so I removed it in two places). Here is an example of what I deleted:
FRAMEWORK_SEARCH_PATHS = (
"$(inherited)",
"\"$(DEVELOPER_DIR)/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS3.1.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks\"",);
My project now build for both the iPhone device and the iPhoneSimulator.
What has happened here is that Xcode has mysteriously added a "Framework Search Paths" entry that points to a particular iPhone device SDK. For example, mine was recently set to:
$(DEVELOPER_DIR)/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS2.2.1.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks
This leads the compiler to find frameworks of the incorrect architecture. Removing any values under the "Framework Search Paths" key in your target's build settings will resolve the issue.
I just wanted to mention that in XCode if you go to "Edit Project Settings"
and find "Search Paths" There is a field for "Framework Search Paths". Updating this should fix the problem, without having to hack the project file!
Cheers!

Check that you didn't copy the framework into your project when you added it. If you copied it, it can't find the original paths. To fix this problem. Delete the AVFoundation framework from your frameworks folder in your project, then add it again, but this time, make sure you don't have copy check marked.
This fixed it for me!
I fixed it in a different way.The reason why i was getting this error was that i added security.framework twice in my project.I was not able to see security framework in xcode ,i opened the project in finder and found this framework which i deleted and problem solved.
If your app is meant to run on the device, make sure you are not trying to run in it on the simulator. May sound obvious, but check anyway.
Though it is possible that something got deleted, it has been my experience that something gets screwed up in the project file. I have yet to pin down what that "something" is. I've had similar issues when the SDK installation is just fine. There are a couple of options.
First, add all of your files to a new project. This seems to usually work. Kind of a pain, though.
Second, you can right-click project in XCode/Get Info/Build/Library Search Paths. Add new paths similar to /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneSimulator3.1.sdk/usr/lib. Add appropriate versions of that string for each version (2.2.1, etc) and platform (simulator or iPhoneOS). Perform a similar action for Framework Search Paths if frameworks are your problem.
Third, which is more work but more reliable, is to open project.pbxproj from within MyProject.xcodeproj (Textmate is good for this). Look for "/* Begin XCBuildConfiguration section */", then "LIBRARY_SEARCH_PATHS" and "FRAMEWORK_SEARCH_PATHS". Add or modify the paths as appropriate, and save the file.
In any case, a pain in the butt, and I'd sure like to pin-point the cause because I've had this happen a couple of times. Project builds fine, then just up and refuses to do so with what seems to be little reason.
"Edit Project Settings" and find "Search Paths" There is a field for "Framework Search Paths". delete all!!
It just happened here to me as well. Thanks to a great partner we found the answer. Your Xcode may be pointing to the simulator ..change it to a IOS device instead ..built smooth after ....
Run the file command on the framework from Terminal:
file /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS3.1.sdk/System/Library /Frameworks/UIKit.framework/UIKit
You should get back a message telling you which architectures the UIKit binary is compatible with. If you don't see "i386" listed, then you've somehow managed to remove the i386 version of UIKit, which will mean that you can't build for the simulator.To fix that, you'll have to re-install the SDK.
If you get some other error, hopefully it'll help you figure out what the actual problem is.
I just want to let you know that In my case, I was having the same problem, I realized that I had an older Xcode folder called Xcode3.1.3 I just rename it because it was an older version and that did the magic for me.
Check your library search paths in your target settings. Sometimes goofy libraries get entered in there and this will give you a similar error.
You can remove all entries in this section.
I'd just experienced something slightly different, because I work on my own library (WM_GSRecognizerLib), but the error is the same.
What'd happen: due to some updates, the path targeting the lib to include (.a) was from the "Debug-iphoneos" folder (where it is generated). Compiling for Generic iOS Devices worked fine, but not for simulator, complaining for the missing i386 architecture.
What I did for this issue, is to also include the binaries from the "Debug-iphonesimulator" folder.
It can help for this topic, because the explanation is here: devices require binaries for arm64/armv7/armv7s, while simulator does need i386.
My solution was to set on simulator target debug YES, just look on git status to see the new line added as architecture only on .project. if you don't set this the build will run to all architectures and will show some missing architecture like i386 or other.
NOTE THAT obviously the main issue is to use some framework that implements some kind of specific architecture.
I too got the same error am using xcode version 4.0.2 so what i did was selected the xcode project file and from their i selected the Target option their i could see the app of my project so i clicked on it and went to the build settings option.
Their in the search option i typed Framework search path, and deleted all the settings and then clicked the build button and that worked for me just fine,
Thanks and Regards
