Alamofire compilation errors after installing the SwiftyDropbox in Xcode project with CocoaPods
Hi there,
Since the Dropbox API V1 has been turned off, the file download and upload in all our apps are not working any more. I'm now migrating to the API V2 and using Xcode 8.3.3 and Swift.
I followed the instructions here: https://github.com/dropbox/SwiftyDropbox#get-started and successfully installed the SwiftyDropbox and its dependency Alamofire:
Analyzing dependencies
Downloading dependencies
Installing Alamofire (3.5.1)
Using ArcGIS-Runtime-SDK-iOS (10.2.5)
Using SVProgressHUD (2.2.1)
Installing SwiftyDropbox (3.3.1)
Generating Pods project
Integrating client project
Sending stats
Pod installation complete! There are 3 dependencies from the Podfile and 4 total pods installed.
My podfile looks like this:
# Uncomment this line to define a global platform for your project
source 'https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git'
platform :ios, '8.0'
target 'FCMapApp' do
# comment this line if you're not using Swift and don't want to use dynamic frameworks'
use_frameworks!
# Pods for FCMapApp
# pod 'Dropbox-iOS-SDK'
#pod 'Alamofire'
pod 'SwiftyDropbox'
pod 'SVProgressHUD', :git => 'https://github.com/SVProgressHUD/SVProgressHUD.git'
pod 'ArcGIS-Runtime-SDK-iOS', '10.2.5'
target 'FCMapAppTests' do
inherit! :search_paths
# Pods for testing
end
end
But when I tried to build the project I got 267 Alamofire-related Swift compiler errors!!! I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong... Can anyone please help?
Thank you in advance.

Thanks! That looks like a bug in SwiftyDropbox v4.2.0 when using Xcode 8. We'll look into it. In the meantime, you can use v4.1.2, by specifying it in your Podfile like:
pod 'SwiftyDropbox' => '4.1.2'
Then, do a `pod update`.

Hi Shimin, did you have Xcode try to convert the version of Swift code for the pods by any chance? The pods currently use Swift 3 and the code shouldn't be modified. If you did have Xcode modify them, uninstall and re-install them to get clean versions.
Otherwise, can you share the errors you're getting so we can take a look? Thanks in advance!
By the way, if you need more time to migrate your app to API v2, we can offer an extension for access to API v1. To request that, please open an API ticket with the relevant app key(s):

ShiminCai I don't believe replying to the notification email sends the content anywhere I can access it. Please post the information in the thread here. (If you need to share it privately for some reason, you can open an API ticket here instead.)
