Xcode 8.3.2 Build success, but plugin non-functional, popup allowing Xvim not shown

[truongngoclinh]

Description

I can install Xvim successfully by using develop branch, but no VIM feature in Xcode when I open projects. I cant see the notice for: "allow xcode load Xvim from bundles".

Operation

• /XVim  ➦ fa5224b  sudo make
  xcodebuild -configuration Release
  2017-04-21 21:00:23.704 xcodebuild[19159:92286] [MT] PluginLoading: Required plug-in compatibility UUID DFFB3951-EB0A-4C09-9DAC-5F2D28CC839C for plug-in at path '~/Library/Application Support/Developer/Shared/Xcode/Plug-ins/XVim.xcplugin' not present in DVTPlugInCompatibilityUUIDs
  === BUILD TARGET XVim OF PROJECT XVim WITH CONFIGURATION Release ==
  ....
  ** BUILD SUCCEEDED **

Expected behaviour

XVim working in Xcode. At least show the popup that allows load Xvim.

Environments

• Xcode Version [ 8.3.2 ]
• XVim branch and revision [ develop / fa5224b ]
• Keyboard Language [ English US ]
• Input source language [ English US ]

Have you followed the Install XVim for Xcode 8 instructions (re-signed Xcode)?

[truongngoclinh]

@tidbeck, sure I signed successfully: sudo codesign -f -s XcodeSigner /Applications/Xcode.app, the keychain allowing popup was shown.

Build failed if I use master branch.
The following build commands failed: Ld build/Release/XVim.xcplugin/Contents/MacOS/XVim normal x86_64

Build success and work well in Xcode 8.3.1

• Xvim branch develop
• Xcode version 8.3.1

[gonefish]

me too

[podkovyrin]

Try to update compatibility UUIDs with the following command and restart Xcode:

find ~/Library/Application\ Support/Developer/Shared/Xcode/Plug-ins -name Info.plist -maxdepth 3 | xargs -I{} defaults write {} DVTPlugInCompatibilityUUIDs -array-add `defaults read /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Info DVTPlugInCompatibilityUUID`

Followed @podkovyrin's command, re-signed Xcode and re-make works for me on 8.3.2

[rqueue]

Has anyone else found another solution? I can't seem to get it to work using the command from podkovyrin.

• Xcode 8.3.2
• XVim develop branch

[matachi]

@rqueue Not sure what command did the trick, but I ran the following commands a couple of times:

$ defaults delete  com.apple.dt.Xcode DVTPlugInManagerNonApplePlugIns-Xcode-8.3.2
$ find ~/Library/Application\ Support/Developer/Shared/Xcode/Plug-ins -name Info.plist -maxdepth 3 | xargs -I{} defaults write {} DVTPlugInCompatibilityUUIDs -array-add `defaults read /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Info DVTPlugInCompatibilityUUID`
$ sudo codesign -f -s XcodeSigner /Applications/Xcode.app
$ make

Eventually XVim started to work in Xcode again. I'm also running Xcode 8.3.2 and I'm on the develop branch of XVim.

[hanl001]

you should create an other sign and Re-signing Xcode again

[truongngoclinh]

It now works well on Xcode 8.3.2 with develop branch. Thank you all for your reply!

What did it in the end for me was opening the xvime project in xcode and building it there + all the other steps people mentioned

[bduhbya]

To clarify, if we want the latest plugin code, we need to use "develop" branch and NOT master? Master fails to build for me (Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64:
"OBJC_CLASS$IDEPlaygroundEditor", referenced from:

l_OBJC$CATEGORY_IDEPlaygroundEditor$_XVim in IDEPlaygroundEditor+XVim.o
objc-class-ref in XVimHookManager.o
ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64)

But, https://github.com/pebble8888/XVim.git works. I had no trouble with the codesign part.

[WellerQu]

I have the same problem, but my xcode version is 8.3.3. Any ideas, please. Thanks

[rqueue]

@WellerQu have you tried opening the xvim project itself in Xcode and running it in addition to all the other steps people mentioned?

[hidez]

@WellerQu Have you tried develop branch of XVim? Master branch failed with make. But develop branch works for me on Xcode8.3.3.

[WellerQu]

@rqueue Yes, I have tried all the other steps in this issue. But can't get the expected result. And I get some warns:

[WellerQu]

@hidez Yeah, I have tried develop branch.

[WellerQu]

Thanks all. And I resolved it with @bduhbya 's solution.
