I am reading an iOS dev book and in it saw a reference to a info.plist file used as part of an Obj-C project. Unfortunately, the book did not explicitly say where the file may be found?
Where is this file located? How can i gain access to it as part of Xcode?
The app I was developing had some custom settings and in my case the Info.plist file was in a different place.
Here is how I look for it. (the safest way)
In xCode:
Info.plist fileIn JetBrains AppCode:
Info.plist location
Build Settings -> Info.plist File(INFOPLIST_FILE)
When you create a new Bundle(Application, Framework, Tests), Xcode automatically save it into a place which you can find simply in Build Settings. But sometimes it is not so simple to find it, for example using CocoaPods
During refactoring or others situations the Info.plist path can be changed and Xcode do not automatically change Build Settings and you get
Build input file cannot be found: 'some_path/Info.plist' (in target 'SomeTarget' from project 'SomeProject')
You can fix it finding a file and modifying settings
File -> Open Quickly -> Find the correct one -> Reveal in Project Navigator -> update Info.plist File in the Build Settings
for those that like myself are building an Ionic project and have to add privacy permission keys, make sure you add them in the right .plist file. The best way to find it is to use Xcode search.
I share a screenshot with a circle around the right Info.plist you need to modify. Modifying the other one in the library folder will still result in errors about privacy. Hope this screenshot helps because I have lost a lot of time on this issue.
