I haven\u2019t updated my apps lately and I thought I\u2019d see how much work it would be to update to Xcode 8. Well, there is a lot of deprecated code in my apps, since I am still compatible with iOS 5.1.1. I fixed the easy ones but there are still 48 issues left. However, the apps won\u2019t compile now because of this error:
\nFinder information, or similar detritus not allowed<\/p>\n
The error message indicated that the file in question is:
\n\/Users\/username\/Library\/Developer\/Xcode\/DerivedData\/Words-boikejhzvtrlltffksnstzlbjcpf\/Build\/Products\/Debug-iphonesimulator\/AppName.app<\/p>\n
But that is a package, so the problem must be in a file somewhere in there.<\/p>\n
Fortunately, this is an error that others have encountered<\/a> and there is a solution.<\/p>\n First cd to the above named directory and run the following code to find all of the files in the director that have extended attributes. When I ran it I had a bunch of files that have an @ at the end file permissions section. In my case they are all images\u2014in fact all of them are app icon or launch images. My other images are fine.<\/p>\n The files for this project are all in the Words directory so I recursively removed the attributes from all of the files. Thanks to cwd at StackOverflow<\/a> for the info on how to do it. I have tens of thousands of files, so it took a while.<\/p>\n I haven\u2019t updated my apps lately and I thought I\u2019d see how much work it would be to update to Xcode 8.
