Objective-C Class Reference: Symbols not found error

29.6k views Asked by At

I've been working on this iPhone app for a while now, and I had it completely finished and working. The project I was expanding on was downloaded from a subversion repository online that my professor had given me access too. I accidentally didn't download the "root" copy or something like that, so I wasn't able to commit any changes to the repository. With my instructors help, I downloaded the root copy today and added all my class files to it so I could commit the changes. However, I am now getting 3 strange errors that I have never seen before:

Undefined symbols:

"_OBJC_CLASS_$_mapListViewController", referenced from: objc-class-ref-to-mapListViewController in mapViewController.o

"_OBJC_CLASS_$_mapParser", referenced from: objc-class-ref-to-mapParser in mapViewController.o

"_OBJC_CLASS_$_mapTabViewController", referenced from: objc-class-ref-to-mapTabViewController in mapViewController.o

ld: symbol(s) not found collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

That is the exact error message I am getting. I have not changed any code from the version that was working completely earlier this morning. Any advice? The mapViewController file seems to be what is causing the issue, so here is that as well:

#import "mapViewController.h"
#import "locationDetailViewController.h"
#import "DPUAnnotation.h"
#import "mapParser.h"
#import "mapListViewController.h"
#import "mapTabViewController.h"

@synthesize locationManager, mapView, mapAnnotations, mParser, mapListView, tabView;

Most likely these three classes are missing from your project file. Check the Classes group in your XCode project to see if these three files are present. If not, then right-click the Classes group, and click Add > Existing Files to add them.

If the files are added to the project, then make sure that the implementation (.m) files for these missing classes are added to compiled sources. To check that, expand the group Targets > your application target > Compile Sources, and see if the files are present. If not, right click on "Compile Sources", and goto Add > Existing Files to add them. An alternative and maybe quicker way to do the same is by selecting the .m files for each of the missing classes, and see if the bulls eye checkbox on the far right is checked. If not, then check it and it will automatically get added to Compiled Sources.

"_OBJC_CLASS_$_mapListViewController", referenced from: objc-class-ref-to-mapListViewController in mapViewController.o

"_OBJC_CLASS_$_mapParser", referenced from: objc-class-ref-to-mapParser in mapViewController.o

"_OBJC_CLASS_$_mapTabViewController", referenced from: objc-class-ref-to-mapTabViewController in mapViewController.o

ld: symbol(s) not found collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Make sure all (mapListViewController,mapParser,mapTabViewController) have both @interface & @implementation

I was having this problem when I was trying to have pod 'FirebaseRemoteConfig inside app extensions. I added $(inherited) instead of -ObjC to Other Linker Flags in the Build Settings of the Extension target.

I hope it helps anyone out there. I have lost 1 hour finding this solution.
