framework not found Xcode 7.1

Question

I opened my old project in Xcode 7.1 and I encountered an error.

ld: framework not found LibXL
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

• I had the framework LibXL in the project folder.

• Always search user path is set to YES. //Tried with NO

• Framework Search Path is set to the framework path $(PROJECT_DIR) which is /Users/Mr.T/Desktop/Project. //Tried with recursive and non-recursive

  More information:

I am not sure about the run path search path, and what value it should contain!!!

Answer 1

Go to Build Settings and add $(PROJECT_DIR) non-recursive to Framework Search Paths

There is no need to change Runpath Search Paths

Answer 2

The framework got updated by LibXL and somehow the old framework is not recognised by the Xcode. I downloaded the framework again, and add it to the project!!! It worked now!!!
