Malformed or corrupted AST file

As requested:

What caused this error for me (after getting the new Xcode) was I would try to run a project in simulator (accidentally in simulator, I never use simulator), but I’d forget to select my device or my device would become unplugged without me noticing, and it will try to run in simulator… so I would get those classic “.o” file errors… Then I would switch back to my device and get corrupt AST files…


To CURE the problem… (Follow the steps below VERY closely!!!!!)

  1. Clean your project
  2. QUIT Xcode (CMD+Q)
  3. Run this Terminal Command:
    rm -rf ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/ModuleCache/*
  4. Run this Terminal Command:
    rm -rf ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/ModuleCache.noindex/*
  5. Reopen Xcode
  6. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE YOUR DEVICE SELECTED AND NOT SIMULATOR
  7. CLEAN project (Yes, again)
  8. THEN build (to your device, not to simulator)…

Enjoy!

Note: After further experimentation I’ve found that the force-quitting of xCode is possibly not necessary.
