TARGET_OS_IPHONE and ApplicationTests

Why doesn't this code work when compiling an ApplicationTests unit test bundle?

#if TARGET_OS_IPHONE
   #import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
   #import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#else
   #import <Cocoa/Cocoa.h>
#endif

One of my dependencies has this check and compiles just fine in my main application bundles, but it tries to load <Cocoa/Cocoa.h> when compiling my ApplicationTests bundle. It's probably just my lack of understanding of Xcode, but I get nervous when my test bundles don't build. Any suggestions?

Solution

  • I had a similar problem: TARGET_OS_IPHONE isn't defined when building a static library. My solution was to add "-DTARGET_OS_IPHONE" to the "Other C Flags" section of the target build options.
