Question

THIS QUESTION REFERS TO RESTKIT 0.9.x.

IF YOU ARE NEW TO RESTKIT CONSIDER USING THE NEWER 0.10.x branch.

I recently inherited a project that uses restkit (restkit.org). I have started using a branch (402-new-build-process) that is more compatible with xcode4.2.

My project an all the example projects build and run, but when it comes to Archiving an app the build fails:

/Users/AUser/Documents/SubFolder/stable-branches/project-iOS-client/RestKit/Examples/RKTwitterCoreData/Classes/RKTwitterAppDelegate.m:9:9: fatal error: 'RestKit/RestKit.h' file not found [2]
 #import <RestKit/RestKit.h>
         ^
1 error generated.

I have followed the Installation Troubleshooting guide on the project wiki, but this did not work.

As per Blake’s answer I am building to the DerivedData directory:

In addition I have tried setting header search to these (in many combinations [just guesses]):

"$(BUILD_DIR)/RestKit/Build"
"$(SOURCE_ROOT)/RestKit/Build"
"$(SOURCE_ROOT)/../../Build"
"$(BUILD_DIR)/../../Build"

Answer 1

!!!Update to the latest version of the branch!!!

I’ve just built RKCatalog and RKTwitterCoreData as an archive on Xcode 4.2 without issue. I am failing due to a Code Signing issue. Have you confirmed that you are building with the DerivedData directory:

RestKit assumes that you are using a modern Xcode project building to the DerivedData directory. Confirm your settings
via the "File" menu > "Project Settings…". On the "Build" tab within the sheet that opens, click the "Advanced…"
button and confirm that your "Build Location" is the "Derived Data Location".

I can push changes that rsync the headers to a known location, but I was hoping that standardizing on DerivedData would simplify the process.
