I have developed an application it worked fine, I have released a version to client , he came back with some changes in UI, now when I opened that project after 15 days to complete the changes I am getting Reference to 'X' is ambiguous error, that X is mainly KCGImage related properties like the one mentioned in Title. I am using Xcode and used cocoa pods for adding two frameworks. I have tried the other questions on this category but they are related to xcode4 and Xcode5. I have different check points of code which worked fine previously, but now I tried with 3 old versions of code, all are giving the same problem, if you can provide some insights on this, would be helpful thank you.

I have a Xcode project I got from another developer. Initially when I opened it it has a bunch of errors (most of which were un-updated frameworks). I got it to work after a while and I fixed it. I want pass it back to the manager since I'm leaving uni in a few months. I copied it over to my friends Mac to see what would happen if I just took the project and all it's folders and made it a zipfile. It didn't work for some reason. It gave me an error:
error: using bridging headers with framework targets is unsupported
But why did that come up? I mean it's the same code on the slightly different versions of Xcode (13.1 versos 14.1) but I doubt there was a massive change between the two that would cause this. I want to be able to pass these app later in the future without having to care about this stuff. I made a GitHub (link below) would cloning that work? Also the laptop I chose was just a fresh reset. Would it be due to not having coco-pods installed?
I feel like I could go through and fix it all on that laptop and document that but then I'm afraid that every time I put it on a new one it would come up with random errors every single time making my documentation moot.

With big help this was Fixed.
Things that fixed it.
Having the correct version of Xcode
Turning everything from absolute path to relative
Lots of other code fixes. But those are my project specific.
You don't need bridging headers in framework. Use should have something like "YourFramework.h" where you can import your .h files.
I'm a newbie in Swift. I just created a new single view project in xcode9.3 and tried building it and its taking forever to compile.
Why is this so?
I have had something similar to this, and I found that restarting Xcode a few times should solve the problem.
If this doesn't work, you might want to download the latest version of Xcode. As of now, I think the latest non-beta version is 9.4.1.
Had the same issue in the past.
The swift compiler have some issues with specific code styles which makes it sometimes compile files even slower.
In the end we quit Swift as a development language and moved to React Native and back to Objective-C on iOS projects as swift became too cumbersome.
Moving forward, you might want to look at some of guides out there.
This two looks promising.

Back when I was working on swift, this was guide we were using as a guideline:

Part 2
I'm struggling with this problem for nearly half a year now with multiple XCode versions and Macs.
I can't reproduce bug steps exactly but the things go off when project has multiple targets like for Mac and iOS.
First of all XCode declines to take #if os into account and always highlight syntax only in one type of sections. E.g. if I have os(iOS) and os(OSX) somewhere it will chose only one and highlight only them.
Same goes for autocompletion. Things just not working in that type of projects.
I really dont know what to do since developmenet process turns into struggling. I dont want to split my project into multiple one, I'm happy with multi-target setup.
Is there a way to fix that?
Almost a year late.
Anyway I faced the same situation where a multi target OSX/iOS application in Xcode did not take into account the #if TARGET_OS_IPHONE conditional and failed to autocomplete method names from framework only showing the iOS variant.
Found a solution, based on this blog entry : you have to clearly state the Framework search path on each target in Build settings
Edit: This line was present in the iOS target settings. I copy/pasted it to the MacOS target in Xcode where it was automatically adjusted to the right path.
Edit 2: Loosely related but if you run in trouble with interface builder picking wrong classe files see this answer I just posted in another old thread.
I'm seeing a problem with the latest released version of XCode 7, where if I create a brand new Swift project, and build it, the full index is not being created. This means things like Superclasses, Callers, and Callees in the Assistant Editor are not being populated. If I create a brand new Objective-C project, all of this information is generated correctly. If I download older projects from Github, for example, even if they are in Swift, the information is generated. It just seems like projects that are more recently created (say, in the last 6-8 months), are not indexing properly. This includes projects downloaded from Github, for example, and not just projects I have created. I have re-installed Xcode, which didn't help. I did try out the newest Beta version, and that seems to work, but I can't submit apps using that version, so would like to figure out what is going wrong with the released version of XCode.
I haven't seen any reports of anyone having a similar problem. I deleted all XCode plugins, but that also didn't help. It seems like normally the indexing process happens after the build process finishes. In the cases where I don't get an index generated, I don't see the "Indexing.." message show up in the XCode toolbar.
Any thoughts? Thanks!
I am fairly new to iOS programming and I'm trying to make an iOS 5.1 app that communicates with a server to receive information from a database. I got the server returning the needed information from the database by following this tutorial:
http://www.raywenderlich.com/2941/how-to-write-a-simple-phpmysql-web-service-for-an-ios-app
But then I tried to follow a the other half of the tutorial by the same guy:
http://www.raywenderlich.com/2965/how-to-write-an-ios-app-that-uses-a-web-service
In this one we use JSON, ASIHTTPRequest and MBProgressHUD, but I get a lot of errors when I run this because ASIHTTPRequest is no longer supported in iOS 5.1.
Can anyone point me in the right direction here? I you can show me another tutorial that works for iOS 5.1 that would be great. I have looked but I can't find any.
Thanks
ASIHTTPRequest is most likely returning errors in your iOS 5.1 app because you're using ARC. ASIHTTPRequest wasn't written in ARC, which is why it's throwing tons of errors. But there's an easy workaround:
In Xcode 4's groups and files pane, select your project file at the top of the list.
Select your target towards the left hand panel.
You should now see a list of all the implementation (.m) files referenced and compiled throughout the course of the program.
Double click the implementation files for ASIHTTPRequest and add the following linker flag: -fno-objc-arc. This linker flag acts as a crossbridge between the old non-ARC files and your ARC-based project.
Although there may be residual warnings left, this trick should remove all other error messages associated with ASIHTTPRequest.
When I followed that same tutorial I got a lot of errors. and the build kept failing until I reliased it was because libz.1.2.3.dylib wasnt there. If you go to Build Phases, remove that from the list and add libz.1.2.5.dylib all mine worked first and I got the app working fully :)
