I have added AFNetworking to my project, examined the source, learned something new, compiled, executed... set breakpoints, all normal results with a bonus, a new pattern.

If I could add it to my project I might well do that! lol

Yeah, abandoned RestKit

Xcode 4.6, AFNetwork, drag and drop install like any source. Zero problems. Source and Doc looks good. Developer is available. Excellent, does what we need.

Suggest problem is not with Xcode.... and at least not with AFNetwork..... something higher level perhaps, I'm not familiar with RestKit.

Why worry or assume? Read the source code....

Best,

M.

Hi,

In general I've found that anything this difficult to just add to a project is probably not worth adding in the first place. I mean if the developers were so lazy/incompetent that that couldn't be bothered to write decent up to date instructions on how to install it then what chance does the code itself have? I'm worried now that the underlying code is a complete mess like so many of the other projects on GitHub.

In this case, it could be XCode 4.6 that is causing the issues, but since that's the IDE I *have* to use, it really doesn't matter.

Also since no one has replied and there is little or nothing about RestKit on the Net, I'd say most other developers have come to the conclusion that it's not worth the trouble to include.

Can anyone recommend a (Good - one that it is actually possible to include in your project!) Third Party Network Manager type library?

All the Best
Dave

Dave,

You might want to have a look at CocoaPods (http:// cocoapods.org/). It's a friendlier way of managing external deps than git submodules, and has 'pods' (its reuse specification format) available for both AFNetworking and RestKit.

I've only just started using it for my latest project still in its early stages, so may not have hit major gotchas yet, but it's been very nice to use so far.

Cheers,

CB.

Hi All,

Has anyone managed to successfully add RestKit and AFNetworking as part of it) with XCode 4.6.

I've pulled the Sub Module from github and following the installation instructions but I just can't get it it build properly. The instructions on github are out of date by the looks of things and I'm at a loss as it know what to tweak. I really can't understand it's so difficult to add something like this in XCode 4, ever since they "upgraded" it, I've had nothing by problems.

The documentation and examples for RestKit looked really good, but now I've had these problems I'm wondering if it's worth the effort. I've found in the past that generally if something takes more than 10 minutes to add to your existing project then the underlying product itself is likely to be flakey too. Since usually the same developers that write the code also do the installation setup and documentation.

The is here, I'm not sure if it's not just XCode playing up?

Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Dave
