When archiving app Xcode complains about missing files

I'm using an external library (RHAddressBook) when I run the app in the simulator or in device there is no issue. But when I choose to archive the app I run into the issue where it's saying 'RHAddressBook/AddressBook.h' file not found at the line #import <RHAddressBook/AddressBook.h>

I have checked that the header search paths are the same for debug and release.

Not really sure what to check else.

Open Build Settings for your app target and under Header Search Paths add:

"$(SOURCE_ROOT)/ThirdParty/RHAddressBook"

This path is RHAddressBook folder under your project folder.

(I adapted this answer from here however given that I ran into the same problem with RHAddressBook also I figured some paraphrasing was in order. I hope this doesn't upset anyone).

  • Open Build Settings for your app target and under Header Search Paths add:

    "$(PROJECT_DIR)/.." recursive enabled

This worked for me for RHAddressBook

When you setup the use of the external library for your development builds, you may have needed to update a build setting to specify an additional include search path.

When you do an Archive build, this isn't a development build. You probably didn't update the include search path for your Release (or possibly Distribution) build.

Go back to the build settings and make sure the "Header Search Paths" is updated for the build configuration used by Archive.
