Xcode 12 deployment target warnings when using CocoaPods

Question

I get this warning on Xcode 12:

The iOS Simulator deployment target IPHONEOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET is set to 8.0, but the range of supported deployment target versions is 9.0 to 14.0.99

How to support this version?

Answer 1

A short working solution is here! Just copy and paste the code snippet below at the end of your Podfile and run the pod install command.

    post_install do |installer|      installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|          target.build_configurations.each do |config|             if config.build_settings['IPHONEOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET'].to_f < 12.0               config.build_settings['IPHONEOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET'] = '12.0'             end          end      end   end 

In this case, 12.0 is the minimum supporting iOS version for AppStore submission. You can change it based your project requirements.

Answer 2

This is a problem with the target at your cocoa pods. To me, the answer was to put this code at the end of your pod file:

 post_install do |installer|      installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|          target.build_configurations.each do |config|              config.build_settings['DEBUG_INFORMATION_FORMAT'] = 'dwarf'              config.build_settings.delete 'IPHONEOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET'              config.build_settings['ONLY_ACTIVE_ARCH'] = 'YES'          end      end   end 

It resolved all my problems, compiling and archiving the project.

Another way is just to change the IPHONEOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGETin the pods project like described in this image:
