React Native xcode project “Header Search Path”












0















Following the steps from React Native official tutorial, the xcode project created by "react-native init MyFirstRNProject" won't compile. It complains "React/xxxxx.h" can't be found.



After further investigation of this xcode project, I figured the "React" target contains a build phase "Copy Headers" which copies all exposed headers into a weird location:
"MyFirstRNProject/node_modules/react-native/React/build/Debug-iphonesimulator/include/React"



OK, cool, at least we got the header location. We can change the copied location to somewhere else that better than this. So whichever the project that do "#import < React/xxxxx.h >" should have above path in "Header Search Path" in build settings. Unfortunately, all projects have "Header Search Path" empty. And that's why I'm getting tons of header not found error.



OK, let's add it. Now it finds headers, but compilation still failed, see reference below:
https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/21482



The discussion above saying that removing the "Header Search Path" of the projects will solve the problem. But we know that without header search path, it again can't find React headers.



Just curious now, I don't think my setup is wrong, does anyone has the same issue?
