Xcode 6 Bug: Unknown class in Interface Builder file


I upgraded to Xcode 6 beta 4 and now my App continuously crashes with the message

Unknown class X in Interface Builder file.

It crashes because supposedly Xcode can't find my custom classes that I have linked in my Storyboard but it shows that they are linked correctly in the Xcode interface.

I'm positive everything is linked correctly. My only other option may be to delete the entire storyboard file and start from scratch because it might be corrupted somehow.

Edit: I would also like to add that I tried cleaning, reseting simulator, messing with build phases etc. None of that works.


Solution

  • I resolved this issue as I was typing the question. I figured I'd answer my question and leave it here for anyone else who may face this issue when using Xcode 6 beta 4.

    To resolve this issue, you need to select each of your custom class objects in Storyboard (this includes any custom views, even the custom view controllers themselves).

    Then with those objects selected, open the identity inspector and under "Custom Class" you should see the Module option. Finally:

    That's it! The current module for all of my custom objects must have been internally incorrectly set somehow in Xcode 6 beta 4. But there was no visual indication of this in the inspector.

    Note that if pressing enter inside the Module text box doesn't work, try selecting the arrow to the right and manually select your current module, then clear the text box and press enter. You can also try pressing enter inside the class text box (although this usually is to resolve a different issue).
