I'm a novice in iOS development and learning how to build an app for conducting a research study that involves the use of surveys, audio, displaying progress for study duration, and if possible a token system for completion of the surveys to allow participants to enter raffles for completing surveys on time.
Now, I've tried implementing the ResearchKit but it has so many errors when trying to build it and I'm not entirely sure how to fix each one of them. I've tried searching around for a walk through for updating the code but I can't seem to find anything and the developer documentation is a bit difficult to interpret for fixing the errors.
Is ResearchKit just out of my grasp for now to use for this project?
If so, what other solutions should I look into because as of now, because ResearchKit handles and standardizes a lot of the components that I'm trying to build from scratch and I want to make sure the IRB accepts the app within the first submission (hopefully).
After deleting the framework, re-specifying the target, and performing the following steps ResearchKit 2.1.0 beta is properly imported and no issue with deprecated code.
1- Delete your Podfile.lock (I like to use the command '-rm -rf Podfile.lock' on the terminal for this)
2- Delete your Pods folder (I like to use the command '-rm -rf Pods' in the terminal for this)
3- Delete your .xcworkspace
4- Pod install
5- Clear your project into XCode> Product> Clean Build Folder

So I am very new to Swift and XCode. I am trying to use an external library called JJFloatingActionButton the projects build fine but when I try run it on an emulator I get:
dyld: Library not loaded: #rpath/JJFloatingActionButton.framework/JJFloatingActionButton

Reason: image not found
Now of course I know you can't come ask a question like this on StackOverflow without researching and trying to find a solution yourself, so thats what I've been doing for the past few hours I have been looking at what was causing this, I started thinking that maybe it was the library it's self so this one is the third or fourth I've tried till I came across a few posts on SO that were about this issue.
Most people fixed this by just putting the Framework into the Embedded Binaries in the targets General Settings. And I tried this but I now receive a log:
I also get a Dependancy Analysis Warning:
I don't know much about these types or warning and errors but it's saying that it can't find the file which is pretty self explanatory but when I am adding the file to Embedded Binaries it shows the framework file there
What I often do when I have problems with cocoapods is remove cocoapods from the project and reinstall it.
You could use pod deintegrate (https://github.com/CocoaPods/cocoapods-deintegrate) to remove it and then a pod install to reinstall.
So it took a day and a half to work this out but I have finally got it and I can carry on with my project.
Problem:
The problem in my particular case (because other methods seemed to have worked for people trying to achieve the same thing) that the reason my project wouldn't build and was throwing Build Time errors was because after adding the Framework to Embedded Binaries it was also adding it to Embed Frameworks in my targets Build Phases. This then, I believe, caused the compiler to try and build it twice hence the Multiple Build Commands error
Solution:
So the errors I kept getting where saying No such file or directory above it was saying Multiple build commands for output file and what I did to fix this I went to Build Phases in my target settings and deleted the framework from Embedded Frameworks but made sure it was still under [CP] Embed Pods Frameworks.
in my case I was have to make framework "embed & sign" in stead of "don't embed"
I'm trying to produce gcd a files from an iOS Xcode 4.2 (4D199) project called CocoaTouchHax on Lion and I'm having incredible trouble. I followed the steps here and I went as far as trying to build llvm/clang from source following steps here. However I continue to get this error:
Library not loaded: #executable_path/../lib/libprofile_rt.dylib
Where am I going wrong? I've tried to use the install_name_tool to fix the executable path to no avail. Am I over analyzing something? Am I missing something simple? I put this in as a "Run Script" phase prior to linking to ensure I've updated the #executable path and I use tool to examine the file after and the name is updated:
install_name_tool -id #executable_path/Users/cliff/dev/CocoaTouchHax/build/CocoaTouchHax/Build/Products/Debug-iphonesimulator/lib/libprofile_rt.dylib build/CocoaTouchHax/Build/Products/Debug-iphonesimulator/lib/libprofile_rt.dylib
What am I doing wrong? Help!
Update
Merely adding lib profile_rt.dylib crashes my test run immediately giving the following error when anything is run:
#executable_path/../lib/libprofile_rt.dylib
So I am certain that something needs to happen or something needs to be done to the lib profile_rt.dylib prior to execution.
Another Update I tried creating a sum link to
/Developer/usr/lib
under /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneSimulator5.0.sdk/Developer/usr
Which I believe is part of the base the path forming the current working directory when test runs. (Assuming it runs from the bin folder there.) This would, in theory, complete the relative lookup path of ../lib/libprofile_rt.dylib from that base path but it didn't work. I've tried running the install_name_tool command prior to copying the dylib in place but I still get this error:
Library not loaded: #executable_path/../lib/libprofile_rt.dylib
I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I somehow did manage to get test coverage files to emit using some combination of the above but I was not paying close enough attention and cannot reproduce the occurance. I know this can work, I just need a little more help figuring out how.
Update: In Xcode 4.3.2 (4E2002), just switch on Generate Test Coverage Files and Instrument Program Flow, the build system will link libprofile_rt for you. Xcode 4.3, and later, is a standard Mac app and the /Developer folder is gone. So, skip steps 5-7 below. You will also have to create a class file to workaround a bug in Apple's unix implementation as described here. You'll want it in the project under test.
For Xcode 4.2 (4C199) in Snow Leopard:
Create a project, say MyProduct. Check Include Unit Tests.
Once Xcode does its thing and loads the new project, you should have two targets, MyProduct and MyProductTests. Duplicate the MyProduct target.
Select the MyProduct copy target.
Go to Build Settings. Under Code Generation turn on Generate Test Coverage Files and Instrument Program Flow.
Go to Build Phases. Expand Link Binary With Libraries. Click the +. Click Add Other.... Browse to /Developer/usr/lib. Choose libprofile_rt.dylib.
Select the MyProductTests target.
Repeat steps 4 and 5 for that target.
Go to Build Settings again. Find Bundle Loader under Linking. Change the path to the MyProduct copy app. Something like $(BUILT_PRODUCTS_DIR)/MyProduct copy.app/MyProduct copy.
Change your schemes so that the tests run under the MyProduct copy scheme and not MyProduct. If you're compiling clang on your own, you can figure out the details here.
That should work. Step 8 took me hours to figure out, it's the key. If you only see gcda files in the test build directory, that's the likely issue.
On Lion you can symlink the dylib into /usr/lib to avoid that error
sudo ln -s /Developer/usr/lib/libprofile_rt.dylib /usr/lib/libprofile_rt.dylib
I cant guarantee that that wont bust something the future however. Remember that you have done it.
Create a new configuration called "Coverage" (or whatever).
In the Coverage config variant you have created go to Build Settings and...
Add -fprofile-arcs and -ftest-coverage to Other C Flags
Switch on Generate Test Coverage Files
Switch on Instrument Program Flow
In Other Linker flags add -lprofile_rt
The reason to do it this way with a config is that you can keep your normal build untouched. Also only works on Simulator. So dont try running this on device.
And from http://mattrajca.com/post/8749868513/llvm-code-coverage-and-xcode-4
Finally, open up the Intermediates/$TARGET.build/$CONFIG/$TARGET.build/Objects-normal/$ARCH subfolder. Inside, you’ll find the aforementioned gcda and gcov files
You can open that folder with CoverStory.
Note that coverage is not cumulative (unlike Coverity) so each run starts afresh. There might be a way to change that.
While attempting to debug a build created using the 3.2 SDK on an iPhone device I receive the message "A signed resource has been added, modified, or deleted.".
I can clean, rebuild, then install with no error, but if I try to install without cleaning the error shows.
Anyone have an idea as to what might be causing this?
I found a workaround for the bug.
If you delete the .app file in build/Debug-iphoneos/ before building for the device, the app gets installed without errors.
And there is a simple way to do that before every build.
Make sure you have selected "Device" in the dropdown overview menu.
In XCode go to Project > New target...
Then find "Shell Script target" under MacOSX/Other
Name it and add it to the current project
Now, in the left navigation panel, under targets, expand your newly created target and double-click on Run Script.
In the window that opens replace "# shell script goes here" with "rm -fr build/Debug-iphoneos/*.app" (without the quotes).
Now open your main target preferences and under Direct Dependencies add your newly created target.
Build and Go! :)
This error occurs when there is a special character in the Product Name. In my case it was a "?"
If you change the Product Name it automatically updates the "Bundle Name" and "Bundle Display Name" so it is often the best choice to rename an app.
If you want to include special characters in the app name you have to manually rename the "Bundle Name" and "Bundle Display Name"
Bundle Name: This is the actual app bundle name in the file system such as "Awesome App.app". It is generally not visible to the user.
Bundle Display Name: This is a short name displayed under the app icon on the device. Since the bundle name would be truncated to "Awes…tion" you have the option to have a shorter name which fits better such as "Awesome App". It should be similar to the App Store name (set in iTunes Connect)
This is pretty clearly a bug in the 3.2 SDK, but I don't want to downgrade. I've found that doing a Clean by pushing Command+Shift+K, then Return is pretty fast before pushing Command+R to build.
Xcode 8, reason of the "A signed resource has been added, modified, or deleted." was that target was signed with an enterprise provision profile.
In my case, it happened when no changes were made. Make a change to any file and run again.
This can have several causes. The fastest way to figure out what is causing it is to go into Xcode, Window menu, Devices, then click the reveal button at the bottom of the pane to show the Console. Now attempt to run. You should see log output that names the specific files it is complaining about.
Most of the solutions previously posted are just artificial ways of getting Xcode to regenerate the contents of the build folder and/or re-sign the files.
In my case, my WatchKit extension was somehow acquiring references to Cocoapods frameworks that were only targeted toward the main app so they got signed during the build, then pruned later (as they were not used). Then on device, iOS complained that they were missing from the .appex folder for the extension. I ended up not needing any pods in the extension so I just removed them all and removed the extension as a target, then did some minor cleanup to remove the pod-related debris left in the build steps. Now everything works perfectly.
(SOLVED) This is a weird one. I tried everything I could find. Eventually I changed the product name from "Unit Tests (device)" to "Device Unit Tests" - removing the brackets. Now everything works. The spaces in it appear to be fine.
Previously on stackoverflow:
I've just run into this bug with two static library projects. One builds and tests using the GHUnit test runner on the device without a problem. The other projects will not install and gets this error. That means it's something thats different between these two projects. I've so far tried wiping the build directory, taking spaces out of the executable name, and various clean and builds as suggested here.
Same for me, thought it has something to do with multiple targets etc. because I changed a lot there. But it's highly possible that it's a Bug in the 3.2.2 release since I did not test extensively in this sdk version before the massive target changes in my project.
solved my issue!!!
I found out by accident that somehow a space " " found it's way into the Product Name of my app so it was called "First Second.app" instead of "FirstSecond.app". After deleting the space the issue was gone!
I changed it here:
right click on target
Get Info
Build Tab
Packaging Section
Product Name <- The name here will be used for the bundle (.app) name
Hope this helps, let me know!
Cheers,
nils
I could solved by changing project name.
[project]-[Rename] menu. "phase1 (new)" -> "pahse1"
I was getting this same error, but intermittently. I tried all the above and it still didn't work. Today I found what was causing it.
The error seems to occur when editing a xib in interface builder. If you try to run while the interface builder is open in xcode it will cause the above error. To solve just close the interface builder editor. i.e. just select a code file from your project so you are in the Source Editor.
The simplest (and probably most common cause) appears to be rebuilding without any changes.
So the simplest thing to cure it is to make a trivial change to a source file (such as adding a space, then deleting it), and then rebuilding.
If this doesn't work, feel free to try all the other answers here.
For months, I'd get this error without realizing it was due to such a simple cause. I'd usually do a Clean Build to get rid of it.
When I created ipa through terminal using xcodebuild commands, ipa created but while installing it I was getting same error. exportOptionsPlist solved my issue.
xcodebuild -exportArchive -archivePath projectPath/myapp.xcarchive -exportPath projectPath/myApp.ipa -exportOptionsPlist ProjectFolder/exportPlist.plist
In my case, Quit and restarting XCode worked.
For me the issue was related to the provisioning profile settings. The clue to this was that debug builds were installing ok, but release builds were not. I wanted to test a release build, so I ran the scheme with that build configuration.
I fixed it by duplicating the Release Configuration, then modifying those fields in the Build Settings to have the same provisioning stuff as if I am debugging it.
(Adding another build configuration will give you headaches if you are using Cocoapods however, then you'll have to modify your Podfile)
I'm getting the same thing, when installing on a iPod Touch. I can't link for the simulator (for other reasons), so can't say whether the problem occurs there.
Yes, rebuilding clean or deleting the app from the device allows me to install again. Neither are desirable, iterative solutions!
The minimal "cleaning" I've come across as a work around is manually deleting the Foo.app in the build/Debug-iphoneos directory.
it seems this is a bug in xcode 3.2.2:
iphonedevsdk
I had the same problem in Xcode 3.2.1 when I put a + in my app name. Specifically the "product name" in the build settings. It is fine to have a + in the bundle name in your Info.plist. The same probably applies to other punctuation characters.
Go to Window > Organizer > Projects > Find your project and delete derived data
I got this error intermittently while installing app using iPhone config utility on Windows7. Following solution works - Go to C:\Users\{lanusername}\AppData\Local\Temp and delete app specific folders (e.g. abc.app) and try installing app again.
I reported this bug on ICU (Windows versions) to Apple in June 2011. With the following workarounds:
The workaround is this ....
Win XP
1) Close ICU
2) Delete the temp folder: c:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Local Settings\Temp\[AppName].app
3) Delete the deploy folder: c:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Application Data\AppleComputer\MobileDevice
4) Restart ICU. Drag in the App and install normally.
============================
Win 7
1) Close ICU
2) Delete the temp folder: c:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Temp\[AppName].app
3) Delete the deploy folder: c:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Apple Computer\MobileDevice\Applications\[AppName].app
4) Restart ICU. Drag in the App and install normally.
=========================================================
I simply rebuilt my app, and that solved the issue.
I also faced the same issue. After wasting lot of time I realized that my product name has a special character "?" which cased the problem
Having the DerivedData folder at a network location caused this problem for me.
After trying everything else, I found out my workstation couldn't agree with the University server about what the time was. (It thought everything was always modified). I also had to clean for every rebuild to avoid that frustrating message.
In the end I gave up and built locally, changing Xcode > Preferences > Locations ... feeling altogether pretty dumb for having ever built over the network.
We ran into this issues on XCode_6.3.1. We were building a AppleWatch app, with an extension. We do have a bunch of Pods.. After debugging the issue for almost a bunch of hours, what we found was that there was an issue with the way a file was adde to the project..
It seems like some references to a unused file was sitting in the iPhone App, though it was used in the Watch App.. It turns out that the error XCode was showing was totally useless.
After removing this file and re adding it back to the project the project started working fine & was able to install to the device. To make it even harder to debug the issues, the debug version was installed without an issue, but was unable to install the norman version..
Make sure you add your files to the right target and, look at git history and see if there are lingering fragments that are added to the wrong target.
This is a very general error message indicating something is wrong during the validation process of the code signature. To find out the specific error, you can go to Xcode->Window->Devices and check your device log.
In my case, I have following console spew
Feb 1 18:53:07 iPod-touch installd[40] : 0x1001f8000 -[MICodeSigningVerifier performValidationWithError:]: 192: Failed to verify code signature of : 0xe8008017 (Signed resources have been added, removed, or modified)
Check on this 3rd party framework again, I found an extra CodeResources file under the framework root. Remove that file fixed the problem.
