MonoTouch / MonoDevelop: "Did not get project info" when opening xib-files - mono

So, I just installed everything needed for MonoTouch on a MacBook running Lion.
I followed the steps/instructions to install (see here) and then created a new solution. When I open my xib-file I get the following error (in MonoDevelop):
Error updating Objective-C type information. Did not get project info
System.Exception: Did not get project info
at MonoDevelop.Macdev.XcodeSyncing.XcodeProjectTracker.UpdateTypes(IProgressMonitor monitor, Boolean force) [0x00029 in /Users/builder/data/lanes/monodevelop-mac-2.8.6.4/ca00645c/source/monodevelop/main/src/addins/MonoDevelop.MacDev/XcodeProjectTracker.cs:351
I have done nothing else than installiong Xcode, then the Framework/Runtime (MRE-2.10.8_3), then MonoDevelop (2.8.6.4) and then MonoTouch.
Anyone seen this before? I can't find a single thing in this specific error on the net.

It seems that I needed to close the solution, restart the program and then some form of "updating xcode"-thing was running. Then it worked with getting the designer up. Of course, I can't see the Assistant Editor and create those outlets, but that's another issue...

I fixed this issue by building the application, and then double clicking the xib file.

I fixed this issue by building the application, closing and reopening the solution, and then double clicking the xib file.

MonoDevelop crashes when creating a new solution

When I try to create a new solution in MonoDevelop, it crashes.
When running MonoDevelop in terminal I get the message *** Error in "monodevelop": double free or corruption (out): 0x00007f8a10002760 ***
Should I reinstall MonoDevelop? If yes, how do I reinstall it?
Maybe helpful information: Im using Lubuntu 17.10
before you open a project, control the path to your projects under Edit - Settings (Load / Save).
If it points to a non existing folder Monodevelop will crash.
i found the exact situation when it crashes.
It crashes if you try to create a project or solution outside the default solution path (specified in the menu Edit-Preferences-Load/Save), if you specifie other location the IDE closes before create it.

Unable to debug ArcGIS 10.2 add-in on ArcMap with “No GUI components found in this Add-In”

I am working on an ArcGIS add-in (a very simple toolbar with a few buttons) with VB.Net and ArcObjects SDK in Visual Studio 2010. The solution was built successfully and the debug settings were configured.
When I hit Debug, ArcMap application was opened. I couldn't find the toolbar docked anywhere on the ArcMap toolbar. I went to "Customize" -> "Add-in Manager" and the add-in being debugged was not there. Then I tried "Add From File...", located the "esriaddin" file and clicked "Install Add-in". It populated a message box saying "No GUI components found in this Add-In."
I made some Google searches but haven't got any luck to reach a solution yet.
What was I missing? Has anyone come across the same issue and any direction?
Thanks in advance!
Try clicking build first, then open the arcmap separately and check the add-in manager inside of arcmap to see if it got added to the application. If so, you should be able to find it and turn the toolbar on.
I'm not sure about .Net, but I debugged this issue for the Java SDK. You have to make sure you are using the correct versions for compiling. In java, it was an old archive version of jdk1.6 32 bit.
Then I was referencing something wrong inside the xml document. I had changed the name of my JAR file (taken from project name by the ArcObjects SDK). In the xml document it was still pointing towards the old name.
This may not help you, but if anyone else searches this error and is using tje Java SDK, hopefully it will help.
I struggled with this same issue with a 10.0 add in. We had a 10.1 update that worked with 10.1 but trying to install it to 10.2.2 gave me that exact error. So much for upward compatible! I then tried to build 10.2.2 code and kept having this error. Others mentioned needing to build to x86 so I did that although the 10.1 was on Win7-64 and ran with AnyCPU....
I believe the final key for me was in the config file. I had set version to 10.2.2 As soon as I changed that to 10.2, the darn add-in installed just fine. Nice waste of a day for an extra '.2'

Xcode builds on Debug but not on Release

So, I have this problem when trying to build my project.
Currently If I run the project in Debug mode, it runs fine, the app starts up on the device and I can test stuff.
However the weird part is when i switch over to the Release build and try to build on the device. When I press the Run button Xcode builds as normal and the build succeeded notification even pops up, but then I get this error code.
Lets call my app xxx
Could not launch "xxx.app"
No such file or directory:
/Users/*my Name*/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/*Bunch of xcode folders*/Products/Release-iphoneos/xxx.app/xxx
I went into finder and searched up xxx.app and couldn't find it. Furthermore there doesn't even exist a Library folder under /Users/my Name/.
So what is xcode trying to do here, and what should I do to fix this?
Edit: I have also tried Cleaning the project and building again, the error code still comes up.
I get this crap all the time.
What I do is clean the project, close it, shut down Xcode, start up Xcode, open project, then build and run.
If that still does not work then find the "DerivedData' folder Organizer->Projects and delete it, then do the above again and try again.
I tried creating a new scheme and setting it to Release mode. That worked for me. However, a reboot after closing xCode seems to work, too.
I went into finder and searched up xxx.app and couldn't find it. Furthermore there doesn't even exist a Library folder under /Users/my Name/.
It does exist, but it's hidden (since OSX Lion) in the Finder (because standard users -- as opposed to developers -- should not mess with it).
Some utilities (on a simple command line) can make it visible again but the simplest thing to do is to use "Go" menu of the Finder and select "Go to folder…" (Command-Shift-G). Then copy/paste the path you want to go to and validate.

UIKit.h not found error

I made a single view app for the ipad, with a movie, webview and button, and I get this error when I try and run it. I have restarted the application, and reinstalled it, but nothing is working. This error keeps coming up in my MoviePlayer_Prefix.pch file. Can someone help me out?
I have had the same issue with being unable to compile project due to UIKit.h not being found + "unable to load standard library for target..."
The solution for me was very simple - to quit (CMD+Q) and relaunch Xcode. I have found out that with Xcode opened, macOS seems to have removed command line tools for Xcode because it was preparing for a update and relaunching Xcode triggered the "install additional components" update and it made the problem disappear.
Like Faul Textor said, most likely your XCode updated to 12.1 but your Command Line Tools didn't. You need to quit XCode completely and then start it again and you should get a pop-up saying "Install Additional Components"
Sorry, this should have been a comment to his reply but I cannot do that.
It sounds like you removed the UIKit.framework from your project at some point. Check if it is listed in your project navigator. If it's not there, go to your project in the project navigator pane, select your target, go to the build phases tab, click on link binary with libraries, hit the plus button, find the UIKit.framework there and add it to your project.
EDIT:
This answer suggests that there mayb be an issue with your framework search paths build setting. Check that out and if the path is empty and it still doesn't work, a re-install of Xcode would fix it, I think.
Just wanted to add my two cents on not making a dumb-ass mistake - came across this answer hoping to solve same problem.
Turns out I had written #import "<UIKit/UIKit.h>" instead of #import <UIKit/UIKit.h>.
Thought I would add in case someone else makes a simple mistake like me.

Xcode Internal error and no project opens

Im on 10.6 and using xcode 3.2.6. On xcode launch (however i launch) i get an xcode "internal error' popup telling me:
File: /SourceCache/DevToolsBase/DevToolsBase-1809/XcodeFoundation/Specifications/XCSpecification.m
Line: 448
Object:
Method: registerSpecificationProxiesFromPropertyListsInDirectory:recursively:inDomain:inBundle:
path should be a string, but it is nil
I can 'quit' or 'continue'. Continue launches xcode. The problem is that once open if i double click an .xcodeproj - nothing happens within xcode. To open a project I have to manually go file->open and navigate to the file.
Google gives a couple of similar issues - including this one
http://lists.apple.com/archives/mac-games-dev/2011/Mar/threads.html#00001
And i've tried everything i can think of with no joy, (Including down grading to the xcode on the OS DVD).
It looks like it can be an issue with whatever particular version of Xcode that you have running. It might be a good idea to get the latest and greatest to see if it's an issue with the Xcode software itself.
I was just hitting this and fixed it by removing a dead symlink at:
~/Library/Application Support/Developer/Shared/Xcode/Plug-ins
This thread tipped me off (although it wasn't Airplay in my case).
