The first nightmare I encountered was to do with the naming of my 2.2.1 app. The name has a space in it (which is not technically allowed I now understand although nothing has ever moaned before). When I tried to compile the app using the 2.2.1 framework I get the error:
com.apple.tools.product-pkg-utility: error: CFBundleIdentifier 'com.yourcompany.Project_name' contains illegal character '_'The first thing to note here is that the only thing that's changed on this Mac since the last time I compiled the app is that I've installed the iPhone 3.0 beta SDK.
The only way I've found to get around this so far is to manually edit the "Identifier" field in the project settings to remove the space, and hard code to package identifier (not good).
The next weird thing happened when I tried running the app on a connected iPhone. (In fact the iPhone that I've been using for all of the development up until now).
When I first ran the app from XCode I received the error "The application is already installed on the device".
Obviously the app is already installed, I've been developing it for months! Normally XCode would just overwrite the app and keep all of your application settings and data, but now it seems I have to manually delete the app from the phone before hitting build and go. Extremely frustrating!
This last problem seems a little unpredictable too - I've just ran the app twice from XCode without uninstalling it and it hasn't popped up the error yet. We shall see...
I should state that all of this is with me targetting 2.2.1, I haven't ran it under 3.0 yet.
If I come up with anymore solutions or problems, I'll update this post but for now I'd better get back to making it work!
Any word on the "THe Application is already installed on the device" issue?
ReplyDeleteI got the same problem after upgrading to 3.0 SDK as well. Very annoying.
