Xcode 15+ Compilation Error Handling

If you are using Xcode 15 or later, you might encounter a Sandbox: rsync.samba deny(1) error during compilation. This is caused by Xcode's default User Script Sandboxing being enabled.

Solution:

  1. Select your Project in Xcode.
  2. Navigate to the Build Settings tab.
  3. Search for ENABLE_USER_SCRIPT_SANDBOXING.
  4. Change its value from Yes to No.

Configure Application Information and Keys

Bind Application Bundle ID

Follow the instructions on this page to bind your macOS application Bundle ID in the console, for example: com.example.app

Get AppID and AppKey

Follow the instructions on this page to get your appid and appkey. Open ViewController.m in the project and modify the appid and appkey.

objc
  FBEngineConfig *engineConfig = [[FBEngineConfig alloc] init];
  engineConfig.appId = @"your appId"; 
  engineConfig.appKey = @"your appkey"; 
  // Optional: If licenseJson is provided, license data verification takes priority, appId and appKey are not required
  // engineConfig.licenseJson = @"your license json string";
 
  self.beautyEffectEngine = [FBBeautyEffectEngine createEngineWithConfig:engineConfig];

TIP

licenseJson has higher priority than appId + appKey. If licenseJson is provided, you don't need to configure appId and appKey.

Run the Project

Open demo/macos/FBExampleObjc.xcworkspace

  1. Ensure Xcode project signing is correct Xcode Signing

  2. Ensure network permissions are enabled for appkey validation Xcode Signing

  3. Build and run

Select target device (Mac or Simulator) and click the build and run button.
