Am I supposed to adjust FRAMEWORK_SEARCH_PATHS
or HEADER_SEARCH_PATHS
when I add custom frameworks to the project?
I have MainProject.xcodeproject
that links SomeFramework.framework
that's simply dragged from "Products" in SomeFramework.xcodeproject
to "Link with Binary Libraries" build phase in main project.
Framework contains all required headers in its Headers
directory. However, in my project I can't simply use:
#import <SomeFramework.h> // I'm pretty sure this file exists
to include this header. Build fails "No such file or directory". Compiler flags include -F…/SomeFramework/build/Release
and that directory contains framework with Headers
directory symlink in it.
(BTW: this is for Mac OS X. I don't care about iPhone.)
Holding the Command key, click the import/include statement to view the header. Also, you can Command-click on a symbol to jump to the header file that defines it.
Xcode uses Clang which has GCC compatible command set. GCC has an option -Idir which adds system header searching paths. And this option is accessible via HEADER_SEARCH_PATHS in Xcode project build setting.
To include a framework in your Xcode project, choose Project > Add to Project and select the framework directory. Alternatively, you can control-click your project group and choose Add Files > Existing Frameworks from the contextual menu.
Just adding the path to the directory containing the framework to FRAMEWORK_SEARCH_PATHS will work. Unless it's a typo, your problem seems to be
#import <SomeFramework.h>
which should be
#import <SomeFramework/SomeFramework.h>
