Question

My project works fine on simulator but wouldn’t build on real device after adding:

@synthesize extraView=_extraView;

It seems that this line somehow hides file header. Tried “Clean” – no change.
I’ve used @property and @synthesize many times before and haven’t seen anything like this.
I’m planning to rewrite extraView handling but I’m asking just out of curiosity if someone has experienced similar error.

Platform:

XCode 4.0.1
4.2.1 Ipad

Answer 1

Adding following to interface declaration solved the problem:

UIView *_extraView;

Thanks to mja for the tip.
