target specifies product type 'com.apple.product-type.framework'

Question

I'm trying to use a Soundcloud API wrapper for the iPhone following these instructions and now I'm getting this error:

target specifies product type 'com.apple.product-type.framework', but there's no such product type for the 'iphoneos' platform

Any ideas on how to solve this?

Answer 1

The SoundCloud API has two products:

• SoundCloudAPI.framework (a framework, for Mac OS X)
• libSoundCloudAPI.a (a static library, for iOS)

If you're building an app for iOS you need to add libSoundCloudAPI.a only as a direct dependency. You've added the framework as a dependency too, which is why you're getting this error.
