Could not make exclude directory

[idrisr]

I'm getting the message Could not make exclude directory. Directories should be relative to the project file which is the same as being relative to ($SRCROOT). when I run the executable from the top level directory of my project directly and in a Run Script Build Phase.

My directory structure is as such:

MyAppFolder/
    Model/      # source dir
    Controller/ # source dir
    View/       # source dir
    Podfile
    Podfile.lock
    Pods
    README.md
    Services
    Support
    Supporting Files
    MyApp
    MyApp.xcodeproj
    MyApp.xcworkspace

The value of $SRCROOT is MyAppFolder.

Am I breaking some assumptions with the directory structure?

Can you provide the line you have set in your Run Script build phase please? I would expect if you wanted to exclude your View directory you could write ```XcodeIssueGenerator -w "TODO" -b DEBUG -x "View/".

You could try to put an echo "$SRCROOT" in your Run Script phase and then look in the Report Navigator pane for the build output and take note of what $SRCROOT is for your project. Then base your exclude directories off of that.

Also, usually a new Xcode project has a root folder and then a nested folder of the same name where all of the files exist. In that case you would have to use MySampleProject/View/ as your exclude directory.

I believe this issue is related to not being able to handle $SRCROOT with spaces fixed in #9 and in the latest release v0.5.2. Thanks!

Ok thanks for the response. My needs are simpler than yours right now so I'm going with this: https://bendodson.com/weblog/2014/10/02/showing-todo-as-warning-in-swift-xcode-project/
