Missing Push Notification Entitlement warning

Question

We have created an App ID, distribution certificate and provisioning profile. Push Notifications were not initially enabled.

We now need to implement Push Notificatio

Answer 1

@Djeeraj V.S. is correct. Cordova added some conditional compilation to remove this requirement for apps that do not need Push notifications.

You could comment out the code in in Classes\AppDelegate.h as per this answer, but its better to add the compilation symbol DISABLE_PUSH_NOTIFICATIONS via the UI so you can continue to benefit from future Cordova upgrades.

I come from .NET background so i am familiar with conditional compilation but had to spend a bit of time working out how to get the compiler flag working in XCode.

Turns out the magic word here is 'Preprocessor Macro'. Here is how its done graphically via the UI (note that this the way its done in XCode 6.1):

Hope this helps other people out there in same situation.
