Question

I have a class defined like this :

@interface ServerCall : NSObject {
// vars
}

// properties

// functions (init)

@end

and

@interface ServerNotification : ServerCall {
    // just vars
}
@end

I have a call in another class :

if ([call isKindOfClass:[ServerNotification class]])
   // do things

When building I have this error :

Undefined symbols for architecture i386:
  "_OBJC_CLASS_$_ServerNotification", referenced from:
      objc-class-ref in ServerCommunication.o
ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture i386
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

  "_OBJC_CLASS_$_ServerNotification", referenced from:
      objc-class-ref in ServerCommunication.o
ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture i386
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

I also have in build settings “Symbols hidden by default” = NO

What did I miss ?

Answer 1

The linker doesn’t find implementations for your ServerNotification class. Do you have the matching implementation file added to your target?
