Problems when migrating from API v1 to v2

When migrating my Objective C project for iOS from Dropbox API v1 to v2

I am changing my source code, replacing old

 

#import <DropboxSDK/DropboxSDK.h>

to new

#import <ObjectiveDropboxOfficial/ObjectiveDropboxOfficial.h>

 

But when compiling the project I get an error:

 

'ObjectiveDropboxOfficial/ObjectiveDropboxOfficial.h' file not found

 

Also in "Pods > Products" section in Xcode both "ObjectiveDropboxOfficial.framework" and "Pods_BASIC.framework" frameworks are marked in red color.

 

 

What settings are missing or what I am doing wrong?

 

  • Then I would recommend using Carthage, rather than CocoaPods, as it is less invasive. You can build the binaries with Carthage and then drage and drop them into each of your targets.

     

    This approach will work better, I think.

    First, to confirm, it sounds like you're using the CocoaPods installation method, is that correct?

     

    If so, can you share:

    - your Podfile

    - the version of CocoaPods you're using

    - the version of Xcode you're using

     

    Also, make sure you opened the .xcworkspace file and not the .xcodeproj file.

      Yes, I am following your instructions to install Dropbox SDK using CocoaPods.

       

      My Podfile:

       

      # Uncomment the next line to define a global platform for your project
      platform :ios, '8.0'

      target 'BASIC' do
      # Uncomment the next line if you're using Swift or would like to use dynamic frameworks
      use_frameworks!

      # Pods for BASIC
      pod 'ObjectiveDropboxOfficial'

      end

      #target 'SB' do
      # Uncomment the next line if you're using Swift or would like to use dynamic frameworks
      # use_frameworks!

      # Pods for SB

      #end

       

      Here pod init command created target 'SB' because my project has two targets: main 'BASIC' app target and 'SB' static library target (SB library uses Dropbox commands, BASIC app uses SB library). But I commented this target out because otherwise I get pod install error if 'SB' static library is present as a target.

       

      CocoaPods version is 1.2.1

       

      Xcode version is 8.3.3
