Realm-cocoa: SPM : 'realm/util/assert.hpp' file not found When building project

[RomainPct]

It's now impossible to build RealmSwift embedded via Swift Package Manager. Xcode produce an error

Goals

Build my app which embed Realm as a Swift Package.

Expected Results

Successful build

Actual Results

Steps to Reproduce

Import Realm-cocoa via SwiftPackageManager in your project and try to build the project. Xcode produce a "lexical or preprocessor issue" because it does not found "assert.hpp".

I am seeing the same issue.
STR:

1. New project.
2. Add watch target.
3. Add Realm as a package dependency.
4. Add Realm and RealmSwift libs to iOS and watch extension targets.
5. Build iOS scheme. Fails with error 'realm/util/assert.hpp' file not found

It builds fine for iOS, tvOS, or macOS apps, but if I add the libs to the watch target, the error occurs. If the error doesn't show, doing a clean build causes the error to show again.

For me also

Having the same issue.

Any progress with it? I am use Watch target and can't use catalyst with installing realm with CocoaPods.
When try instal via SPM I get errors:

'realm/util/assert.hpp' file not found

@mlenarto write step by step for reproduce it.

[RomainPct]

No progress for the moment but a really ugly solution to create an Watch App and a Catalyst App on the same project with Realm :

• Install Realm with SPM for iOS app and Mac Catalyst
• Install Realm with cocoapods for AppleWatch target

I hope it helps you,

Still waiting a fix for that annoying bug...

@RomainPct great idea!
I will try it now) Thanks.

Hi,

I cannot reproduce this issue with the latest version (Realm 4.3.2, RealmCore 5.23.8)

Thanks

[leemaguire]

Here are my steps:

Include Realm via File->Swift Packages->Add Package Dependancy

Make sure Realm and RealmSwift are added in your Watch apps Frameworks, Libraries & Embedded Content section of the watch target.

This is still an issue with Realm 4.3.2, RealmCore 5.23.8. We had to change to CocoaPods for Realm for now in order to not block our builds...

I'm getting this error too. I'll have to switch to Carthage until this is fixed.

This issue, though transient has never been definitively explained or solved by Realm over the past few years. There are many suggested unsustainable workarounds - i.e to clear ios/build every time someone pulls a project, and/or pod deintegrate and pod install...neither of which is working for me today.

The Watch app is irrelevant for me - I am experiencing this _without a Watch app_ on a fresh project. It seems to me there are obvious longstanding issues with the podspec/cocopods with Realm and almost every user in these threads has to find a work around.

Hi @darkheartfelt , which version of Realm you are using?
Our current release 10.1.4 is working fine with SPM.
