Question

I am getting this build error on an iPad app using XCode4 with Storyboards:

Undefined symbols for architecture i386: “_OBJC_CLASS_$_SQLite”,
referenced from: objc-class-ref in EnterDataViewController.o

I have looked everywhere that I know of in the app, done a clean and re-built all to no avail. I don’t see what the error is talking about.

What is happening and how do I fix it?

UPDATE: here is the relevant code from EnterDataVewController.m

//++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
//--  set First Responder

- (BOOL) textFieldShouldReturn:(UITextField *)textField  {

    //  for site data...
    if(textField == txtSiteID)  {
        [txtSTA becomeFirstResponder];
        return true;
    }

    if(textField == txtSTA)  {
        [txtElev becomeFirstResponder];
        return true;
    }

    if(textField == txtElev)  {
        [txtSiteDesc becomeFirstResponder];
        return true;
    }

    if(txtSiteDesc.isFirstResponder)  { 
        SQLite *db = [[SQLite alloc] init];
        [db saveSiteData:(UITextField *) txtSiteID sta:(UITextField *) txtSTA desc:(UITextField *) txtSiteDesc elev: (UITextField *) txtElev ];
        [txtSiteDesc resignFirstResponder];
        return true;
    }

    //  for readings
    if(textField == txtSTA1)  {
        [txtBS becomeFirstResponder];
        return true;
    }

Answer 1

I found the problem… there were two (2) instances of EnterDataVewController.m in separate directories in the same project. I don’t know why that would cause the problem, but when I removed the second instance, it build without any issues (other than normal).

Thank you everybody for the suggestions. I do appreciate your time.
