Undefined symbols for architecture i386 when trying to compile AFNetworking 2.0

Question

I added AFNetworking 2.0 to my project. I did it without the use CocoaPods - I just added the files to the project, making sure to copy the files to target.

When I try to compile the project I get the following error:

Undefined symbols for architecture i386:

ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture i386

What is wrong with my project?

Answer 1

Your missing iOS frameworks in the project. I bet security framework is one of them from the names I see.
