Question

I have used the Google Analytics Tracker in a previous iPhone OS project. Everything was working fine and I copy & pasted the GANTracker Library and the Tracker initialization.

When starting my new project it tells me:

Xcode could not locate source file:
GANTracker.m (line: 177)

To tell the truth, I don’t know where to start to debug this one.

I have included the library using #import "GANTracker.h".

The error message occurs right within the application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions and does not seem to have any connection to what is really going on. If I set the breakpoint to [window makeKeyAndVisible]; for example and wait a second, it occurs right after that. That makes it look like there is something in the background going on with the GANTracker.

The Tracker itself is created a little later by:

[[GANTracker sharedTracker] startTrackerWithAccountID:@"xx" dispatchPeriod:10 delegate:nil];
[[GANTracker sharedTracker] trackPageview:@"pageview" withError:nil];

Thank you all in advance for your help!

Answer 1

Found it with some guesswork:

I was assuming that the error parameter can be nil, doing:

[[GANTracker sharedTracker] trackPageview:@"somePageView" withError:nil];

But error can not be nil:

NSError *error;
[[GANTracker sharedTracker] trackPageview:@"somePageView" withError:&error];

This fixed it. Still, this doesn’t add up because the crash was not at that line, but it fixed it.
