I downloaded cocos2d, the latest version. I added the folders 'cocos2d' 'cocosdenshion' 'external' 'cocoslive' and 'experimental' to my project folder, then I dragged them to my project without clicking add to destination group project button.
But when I build the project, I get an error: 'vorbis/ivorbiscodec.h' file not found in ivorbisfile_example.c on this line:
#include <vorbis/ivorbiscodec.h>
If I comment it out, then this line has the same type of warning:
#include <vorbis/ivorbisfile.h>
I can't comment that out otherwise there is like 50 errors!
Anyway, I look in the hierarchy of folder and the file is indeed there. I am not sure what the vorbis/ part is but the file ivorbiscodec.h is indeed in the project and in finder of the projects folder.
I deleted the Box2D and Chipmunk folders in the external folder in finder and in the project if that makes any difference.
Does anyone have any idea why I am getting this error?
Thanks!
Just to make something sure: Did you check 'Copy items to destinations group's folder (if needed)'?
I deleted the Box2D and Chipmunk folders in the external folder in finder and in the project if that makes any difference.
This statement then makes a lot of sense, because the files couldn't be located and it would throw the errors.
(You could also right click the files inside Xcode and hit Show in Finder to verify their existence.
But on a side note: Cocos2D comes with a install-templates.sh script that you can use to natively include some Cocos2D project templates in Xcode. I would recommend you to do that and create Cocos2D projects from inside Xcode as follows:

In my Xcode project there are other projects linked but somehow its not able to read the sub project.
As you can see MobiResourceManager.xcodeproj is shown in red. And thus the classes which uses headers inside it gives error. But I am not able to understand why its not able to show the project. Sometimes it doesn't show MobiResourceManager.xcodeproj in red but even then the classes using its header gives error of HeaderName.h not found.
The problem that I am facing is happening only in my system. I tried cleaning, deleting-installing Xcode, cloning the repository again but nothing works.
All the project file shown in the screen shot are sub project inside one main project.
Probably that red file was removed or moved somewhere else. Open Finder, locate the missing xcodeproj, then remove this one in Xcode and drag&drop the located one. If that red xcodeproj is inside your repository (what I suspect) then do not select to copy it to the destination.
If you cannot locate that red file, it means it is not added to the repository. For example, it could mean that you need to install it with git submodules or another way - depends on the project configuration.
Are you using the workspace? if yes then please open that file not xcode project file
I am using the DropboxSDK.framework in a project of mine.
I have everything setup and working fine. However, every time I quite Xcode and open it again at a later point I get the error below:
Which is weird because I can see that the framework is in the project and nothing (that I know of) has changed since the last time I had the project open and working.
The way I make the error go away is to:
Right click on the DropboxSDK.framework in my project --> Delete --> Remove Reference.
In my project's Build Settings under Search Paths I remove the path that is under Framework Search Paths (the highlighted selection in the image below).
Then I clean my project SHIFT + CMD + K
Lastly, I click File --> Add files to my project, navigate to the DropboxSDK.framework file which I previously removed reference to and add it back to my project.
Then I build my project again and the error goes away and will remain gone until I quite Xcode and open it again.
Has anyone else ever encountered this happening and fixed it?
Or have any suggestions I could try to fix it? I'm using Xcode V5.1.1
Let me know if there's anything I can clarify. Thank you!
$(SRCROOT)/Application_Folder
Application_Folder is the name of the folder where your whole code other resources resides
Insert above line in Header Search Paths
I had a random thought sparked by Indrajeet's answer that solved my problem.
When a new project is created in Xcode a project folder is created. In that folder there is another folder with the same name as your project, a .xcodeproj file with your project's name and a yourProjectNameTests folder.
Visually like this.
Application_Name --> Application_Name
Application_Name.xcodeproj
Application_NameTests
When I was having the error I described above the DropboxSDK.framework and it's accompanying files were stored here in this folder:
After removing all references to the DropboxSDK.framework in my project I decided to move the DropboxSDK.framwork and it's accompanying files one folder level up to the main Application_Name folder here:
Once I did this, I clicked File --> Add files to my project, navigated to the DropboxSDK.framework file, now one folder level up and added it to my project.
After building no error was thrown. I restarted Xcode and tried again to make sure; still no error. Rebooted my computer to be truly sure... still no error!
I was having the sane problem and just found the answer by chance!
It happens when you create your project name with SPACES between the letters. Somehow it makes XCode crazy when searching for the frameworks.
So if want to create a project called "This is My Project Name", call it "This_is_My_Project_Name" and the frameworks will be found every time. It worked with me.
I downloaded a git hub project, a screen recorder(ios). It said I had to also copy in Inappsettingskit, so I did. So I tried to run it on my iPod and it told me that IASKAppSettingsViewController.h and .m were missing, even though I checked, and they are there, in the correct folder.
All the files are there in the correct place. The only thing I am noticing is that the files are in red text in Xcode:
Sorry that I am such a noob. Any ideas on why these errors show up?
Just guessing here, but chances are something went wrong when you added the files to the project. Try this.-
Remove the files references from Project navigator
From finder, make sure the physical files are inside your project folder.
Drag the files from finder to Project navigator. Uncheck copy items into destination
Drag the recently added files from Project navigator to Build phases => Compile sources section
I have created a rather large application in xcode and wish to move the files somewhere else on my computer.
Could this process be as simple as dragging the project folder to a different place in finder or will something mess up?
Moving the .xcodeproj files will not cause any issues as long as xcode is closed when you migrate the files and you delete the old files.
When xcode is next launched, if you browse and open the proj file from the new directory, all the references will be set to the correct destinations
on a side note it always pays to keep the old files in a .old folder when migrating projects to avoid issues.
As long as the files are kept in their respective folders, next time you run a build in xcode, the references to the new directory the proj file is in will be updated.
As another side note, i just tried to do this and it messed up for me. Typically, any references will switch over, but i had a linker error: ld. it was trying to link to an external library that was contained within the old folder. i had to go to build settings->search paths->library search paths and change that to the new folder location. that worked for me.
Does anyone know how to set up the XMPPFramework for iphone?
I can't seem to figure this out despite the wikis, and the wikis look out of date.
My project compiles fine, but once I actually try to reference any of the framework's classes, I get a no such file or directory error when trying to build the project.
I have no idea what is wrong despite using a bare bones project to reduce any sources of error. I'm using Xcode 4.2
Appreciate any pointers.
Thanks!
Make sure that you DID NOT just drag and drop the XMPPFramework files into your project. Notice in the XMPPFramework wiki is says to copy the files into your project folder, and then add the files into your project. So, if your XCode project is called XMPPTest, there will be an XMPPTest folder wherever you created your project, as in /Users/johndoe/XMPPTest. Taking step 2 for example, you need to press the "option" key and drag the folder titled "CocoaLumberjack" into /Users/johndoe/XMPPTest. THEN you can drag the "CocoaLumberjack" folder inside /Users/johndoe/XMPPTest into your actual XCode project. When you do, you should be sure to check the box "Copy items into destination's group folder (if needed) and select the radio button "Create folder references for any added folders". You should make sure that the checkboxes inside the "Add to targets" box are checked.
There is no XMPPH.h file in XMPPFramework. You should include XMPP.h instead
