Xcode11 dyld: Library not loaded ... Reason: image not found

Question

I am using Xcode11

I am getting following error, when I try to use a framework in a SampleAppSwift project:

dyld: Library not loaded: @rpath/VoiceSampler.framework/VoiceSampler

Referenced from: /private/var/containers/Bundle/Application/7ECB8715–2964–47B6–9F75–056F32846019/SampleAppSwift.app/SampleAppSwift

Reason: image not found

In the SampleAppSwift project, under Build Settings, I tried setting 'Always Embed Swift Standard Libraries' to YES. That did not help.

I had same problem. You should add a Copy File phase in your Build Phases as follows:

Under Build Phases, click on + icon to add new phase, and select New Copy Files Phase.

Drag the newly created Copy Files phase above Compile Sources phase

In the new Copy Files phase, select Frameworks for Destination drop down.

Leave subpath blank. Let be default Copy only when installing.

Under the table, click '+' and then select your Framework, i.e. VoiceSampler.framework

Make sure Code Sign on Copy is checked (ticked).

Do a clean build.

It works. Thanks. Not sure why Xcode11 needs to add Frameworks this way. – Bharat Biswal Sep 28 '19 at 08:12
it's not xcode 11 only, since long time it is there - https://stackoverflow.com/q/20092886/3145189 – Sheshnath Sep 29 '19 at 16:49
Worked for me also. Thanks – Domenico Feb 24 '21 at 20:54
Lifesaver, thanks - I would never have quickly resolved this. – Nostradamus Feb 25 '21 at 03:32

General->Frameworks, Library, and Embedded Content. If it's "Do Not Embed", change to "Embed Without Signing".

In my case I go this to work but I had to select "Embed & Sign" – Marc Jul 14 '21 at 16:39

There is another simpler solution which worked for me if you are using Cocoapods.

In your Podfile, add use_frameworks! after your Target line like this -

target 'YourAppName' do
  use_frameworks!

Basically it adds all your pods as a framework in your framework folder.

This worked perfect for me. I had an issue with the swift lib not loading properly. – Ray Hunter Feb 02 '22 at 03:29
