XCode 3.2 version: now I can't compile.

Question

I have this IPhone app underway that was working fine, then I installed OS 10.6 and the shiny new XCode.

It's not compiling, instead coming up with the single error,

"There is no SDK with the name or path 'iphoneos3.0'"

I can't find such a file or folder on my hard drive.

What's broke, and how do I fix it?

Thanks for any assistance.

Answer 1

Make sure your target is setup correctly and you select the right active config.

If you have done that then this might help you out:

You don't say which version of the SDK you installed. If you installed SDK version 3.2 for snow leopard, then you also need to download and install iPhone OS 3.1 SDK add-on installer for Xcode 3.2 on Snow Leopard. The version 3.2 provided on the snow leopard CD or download does not include the iPhone files that you need.

Answer 2

You need to download (or install) the new Snow-Leopard specific XCode:

(Snow Leopard should also come with an XCode disc)

Once you have done that, you have to go back to the iPhone download center and download/install the Snow Leopard specific iPhone development toolset for XCode.

That's because iphoneos3.0 old and you probably have iphoneos3.1.3 or ios4. You need to go to Project -> Edit Project Settings -> General and change the Base SDK to iphone device 3.0 or 4.0. That fixed it for me.
