I am looking at an Xcode project that uses some libraries. The project was created on a different computer, so I need to update some paths. The library search paths all start with $(SRCROOT). What does that mean?
It's the path to the directory containing the Xcode project.
That's basically your project root directory defined by Xcode.

SRCROOT
$(SRCROOT)(aka $(SOURCE_ROOT)) is a path to your location where a.xcodeproj is.
It is simple to check, just put it in a field and Xcode gives you a tip

I try to run my project but i get the following error "The application bundle does not contain a valid identifier."
here my info.plist
I followed other answer on the question. I don't have any "Ressources" folder inside my project.
Thanks for your help
I solve this problem after I delete all build files by Xcode.
Your build file path at Xcode > Preferences > Locations > Derived Data
If you didn't change the default path, Your path is like
I just deleted all files under DerivedData
In my case, this problem occurred when I manually removed a pod from my file browser in XCode.
In order to fix it, I deleted the associated entry in my podfile, and ran 'pod install' from the terminal.
Additionally, I had to delete the relevant search paths and other references to that pod. And of course I had to clean the project.
In my case, my app's bundle contained a dash like com.some-thing.app so I just changed it to com.something.app and the problem was fixed.
In my case, the value for "Bundle Identifier" key was missing in Info.plist
In my case the info.plist had the wrong encoding format, I still don't know why it changed. So I had to create a new one from Xcode and copy paste all the keys.
Cleaning the project solves my issue. Product -> Clean
I was building the wrong target on a device in my case. I was building the Test target rather than the normal app target.
In my case, I've added a framework into Embed Binaries phase, but it was already in my Link Frameworks and Binaries phase, which created a duplicate entry. Once I deleted one of them, this error starting appearing.
To fix it, I've removed the framework from both build phases and added it one more time
For my case, it's caused by a wrong Info.plist in a framework(lack of Bundle identifier and Executable file)
Use ideviceinstaller -i xx.app can see the detailed error log.
I ran into this issue trying to run flutter build ios, where the errors were related to trying to access WatchOS and TvOS simulators. For now, not sure how to disable that.
What worked was to run flutter run
In my case, the framework info.plist lack of Bundle identifier.
use cmake create dynamic framwork misss Bundle identifier of the info.plist
There must be something wrong with the way I build my project.
I noticed that when I move my Xcode project folder from a directory inside my document folder to the desktop for example, it doesn't build when it previously does! In my case this time, somehow it can't find the Core Plot sub project.
It says:
clang: error: no such file or directory: '/Users/t2wu/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/HRM-fxvjidgvnxghjogeevqdzlccbulu/Build/Products/Debug-iphonesimulator/libCorePlot-CocoaTouch.a'
Any pointer appreciated.
For your current error clean should help
Use macro $(SOURCE_ROOT) for any third party library.
I'm getting the following error:
ld: library not found for -lGoogleAnalytics
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invokation)
I've spent some time googling but can't find how to fix this problem. I'm new to xcode and this is an existing project that I need to work on.
In my case, the project uses CocoaPods. And some files are missing from my project.
So I install it from CocoaPods: https://cocoapods.org/.
And if the project uses CocoaPods we've to be aware to always open the .xcworkspace folder instead of the .xcodeproj folder in the Xcode.
You need to set the "linker search paths" of the project (for both Debug and Release builds). If this library was in, say, a sibling directory to the project then you can set it like this:
$(PROJECT_DIR)/../GoogleAnalytics/lib
(you want to avoid using an absolute path, instead keep the library directory relative to the project).
All in all, the Xcode cannot find the position of library/header/framework, then you tell Xcode where they are.
set the path that Xcode use to find library/header/framework in Build Settings --> Library/Header/Framework Search Paths.
Say, now it cannot find -lGoogleAnalytics, so you add the directory where -lGoogleAnalytics is to the Library Search Paths.
In my case I had a project with lots of entries in "Build Settings > Other Linker Flags"
I needed to reduce it down to just
$(inherited)
-ObjC
Old settings:
Updated settings:
For me, I open the projectname.xcworkspace file and it all works.
If you have pods installed, make sure to open the workspace folder (white Xcode icon) not the project folder. This resolved the library not found for ... error. Very simple issue but I was stuck on this for a long time.
This worked for me:
Go to build setting -> Linking -> Other Linker Flags -> Remove all other than $(inherited)
Cd ios && pod update
If you are using Pods to include the GoogleAnalytics iOS SDK into your project, it's worth noting that since the 3.0 release your Other Linker Flags needs to include -lGoogleAnalyticsServices not the old -lGoogleAnalytics
If your library file is called libGoogleAnalytics.a you need to put -lGoogleAnalytics so make sure the .a file is named as you'd expect
None of the above worked for me, what did was making sure the Pod file platform :ios, '11.0' matched with the minimum deployment target in the XCODE setting
You can also try to lint with the --use-library option, as cocoapods lint libraries as framework by default since v0.36
The problem might be the following: SVN ignores .a files because of its global config, which means someone didn't commit the libGoogleAnalytics.a to SVN, because it didn't show up in SVN. So now you try to check out the project from SVN which now misses the libGoogleAnalytics.a (since it was ignored and was not committed). Of course the build fails.
You might want to change the global ignore config from SVN to stop ignoring *.a files.
Or just add the one missing libGoogleAnalytics.a file manually to your SVN working copy instead of changing SVNs global ignore config.
Then re-add libGoogleAnalytics.a to your XCode project and commit it to SVN.
In XCode 10.1, I had to set "Library Search Paths" to something like $(PROJECT_DIR)/.../path/to/your/library
For me it was a silly thing: my mac uploaded the file into iCloud, and that is why Xcode did not find it.
If you turn off the automatic upload, it wont happen again.
Xcode 4 is throwing me a warning about directory not found for option '-L/Users/t2wu/Documents/blah blah'. Yes it shouldn't be found because I removed it. I remove the directory and I also removed the directory setting in both the target and the project library search path. I also remove the .a file which I was linking before from the "Link binaries with Libraries". It compiles fine, it just gives me the warning. Why is it still having the -L flag?
Check the Build settings tab and make sure that the "Library search paths" option is empty.
At last resort, fire up Terminal and cd to the app project directory (appname.xcodeproj) and do a fgrep for the erroneous search path. I've found some of these lurking in the project.pbxproj file; ended up editing the file manually to get rid of them. (Of course you should make a copy of the file before doing so, in case you trash the project file.)
It'd also be worthwhile to do a "clean" on the project. How to Empty Caches and Clean All Targets Xcode 4.
I had the same issue in my project, it contains multiple custom framework created by me and the project. My issue is resolved by removing 'Framework search Paths' and 'Library Search Paths' from the target which has this issue.
In my case in targets -> build settings I removed searchpaths for which errors occured. Then removed libraries from project and added them again.
You may need to clear the Search Paths for the Tests target as well as the main project. This had me stumped for a little while.
I checked the library search path
I went to Build settings -> Search Paths change the "Framework Search Paths" to $(inherited)...that solved my problem
Sometimes, this error occurs if you open Project.xcodeprojinstead of Project.xcworkspace. Check your project directory and make sure to open Project.xcworkspace.
I have installed Xcode 4.3.1.
I am looking for the "texturetool" that is used for converting PNG's to PVR files.
According to :
http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/3DDrawing/Conceptual/OpenGLES_ProgrammingGuide/TextureTool/TextureTool.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40008793-CH108-SW1
The file is located at :
/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/usr/bin/texturetool
But since I installed Xcode from the app store, /Developer doesn't exist! This is the new "app" version of Xcode.
EDIT: Ok, I found it here: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/usr/bin
What should I do so that I can access the tool without typing the full path?
To access that tool without typing in the full path, you can add that longish path to your "PATH" environment variable.
You can find some ways to modify PATH in the answers to this question.
