How do I resolve 'No such module' build errors?

Resolving 'No such module' build errors in Swift can be a common challenge, especially when dealing with frameworks or libraries that are not properly linked. Below are some steps you can take to troubleshoot and resolve these errors effectively.

Steps to Resolve 'No such module' Errors

  1. Check Your Import Statements: Ensure that the module you are trying to import exists and is correctly spelled.
  2. Verify Build Settings: Make sure that the framework is included in the 'Linked Frameworks and Libraries' section of your project settings.
  3. Framework Search Paths: Check your Framework Search Paths in the Build Settings to include the path to the framework.
  4. Clean and Rebuild: Sometimes, simply cleaning the build folder (Product > Clean Build Folder) and rebuilding can resolve the issue.
  5. Check Target Membership: Ensure that the files you need to access are included in the correct target.
  6. Update Your CocoaPods or Swift Package Manager: If you are using CocoaPods or Swift Package Manager, make sure your pods or packages are up to date.

Example Code

// Example of importing a module in Swift import UIKit import SomeCustomFramework // Ensure this framework is correctly linked class ViewController: UIViewController { override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() // Your code here } }
