infer failed in Xcode9: infer xcodebuild output error - *** Infer needs a working compilation command to run #759

tianshunjian · 2017-09-28T09:04:53Z

My project is created by Objective-C. And infer v0.12.0 was run successfully for my project in xcode 8 yesterday. Today I update my xcode to xcode 9, use some APIs in iOS 11, and update infer to v0.12.1.
Then when I run infer v0.12.1 on Xcode 9 with iOS 11 and LLVM v9.0.0 using the following command:

infer -- xcodebuild -workspace myProject.xcworkspace -scheme myProject -configuration Debug -sdk iphonesimulator

I got the following results:

Build Succeeded
Starting translating 463 files 

*** ERROR: Failed to execute compilation command. Output:
clang: error: cannot specify -o when generating multiple output files
*** Infer needs a working compilation command to run.

..MANY OF THESE ERRORS...then...

...
*** ERROR: Failed to execute compilation command. Output:
clang: error: cannot specify -o when generating multiple output files
*** Infer needs a working compilation command to run.
..

Nothing to compile. Try running `xcodebuild -workspace myProject.xcworkspace -scheme myProject -configuration Debug -sdk iphonesimulator clean` first.

There was nothing to analyze.

The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:

The same issue here.

Objective-C project.

tianshunjian · 2017-09-30T06:19:48Z

@jvillard Any advice will be appreciated so much

Kaspik · 2017-10-02T23:40:02Z

@dulmarod Hey, any ideas what's happening here on new XCode or if current master (source) version has fixed this? Thanks!

jvillard · 2017-10-03T13:12:28Z

There's a chance that the current master fixes this since it ships with a newer clang (5.0) than the 0.12.1 release. I'm not sure how to reproduce this locally to check so it would be great if you could try on your end. Let me know if you need any help with that.

kaelinda · 2017-10-12T05:15:44Z

The same issue here.

IanLuo · 2017-10-18T08:12:54Z

same here, swift project

ljfantin · 2017-10-18T20:51:41Z

the same issue.
ObjC project

tianshunjian · 2017-10-24T08:05:33Z

@jvillard I tried infer 0.12.1 with clang 6.0, however the same issue is still there.

jvillard · 2017-10-24T08:11:13Z

Please try the new 0.13.0 release and let me know if the issue is still there: https://github.com/facebook/infer/releases/tag/v0.13.0

It's not yet in Homebrew but should be soon.

@tianshunjian 0.12.1 is the one that ships with an older clang.

tianshunjian · 2017-10-24T08:25:34Z

@jvillard thanks very much

StefanoBiasu · 2017-10-24T16:42:49Z

Tried version 0.13.

After a clean of the project, running infer run with option --keep-going

infer run --keep-going -- xcodebuild -workspace < workspace > -scheme < scheme > -destination "platform=iOS Simulator,name=iPad Air" clean build

I got many issues:

Error: the following clang command did not run successfully:
'/usr/local/lib/infer/facebook-clang-plugins/clang/install/bin/clang' "@/var/folders/l2/j0r5rdh13yz3qmz97l5zj2h80000gp/T/clang_command_b483e4.txt"

and then

Nothing to compile. Try running xcodebuild -workspace <workspace> -scheme <scheme> -destination platform=iOS Simulator,name=iPad Air clean first.
There was nothing to analyze.

lizuba · 2017-11-02T03:55:49Z

@jvillard the same issue with StefanoBiasu

jvillard · 2017-11-03T14:02:09Z

Any project I can try to reproduce this on?

Can you try passing --no-xcpretty to infer and see if that helps?

Error: the following clang command did not run successfully:
'/usr/local/lib/infer/facebook-clang-plugins/clang/install/bin/clang' "@/var/folders/l2/j0r5rdh13yz3qmz97l5zj2h80000gp/T/clang_command_b483e4.txt"

What was the error? Can you paste the contents of the argfile when that happens (here /var/folders/l2/j0r5rdh13yz3qmz97l5zj2h80000gp/T/clang_command_b483e4.txt).

tianshunjian · 2017-11-06T03:15:44Z

@jvillard I tried infer 0.13.0 installed by Homebrew, and the same issue with StefanoBiasu is there. I run the command

infer --keep-going -- xcodebuild -workspace SohuLive.xcworkspace -scheme SohuLiveSDK-Video -configuration Debug -sdk iphonesimulator

then I got the following results:

tianshunjian · 2017-11-06T04:01:10Z

@jvillard @lizuba @StefanoBiasu
I can get the right results by running the following command

infer --keep-going --no-xcpretty -- xcodebuild -workspace SohuLive.xcworkspace -scheme SohuLiveSDK-Video -configuration Debug -sdk iphonesimulator

And thank you @jvillard very much for your patience.
I wanna know why "--no-xcpretty" must be added when running infer. Could you please explain it.

lizuba · 2017-11-06T06:41:47Z

thank you! it seems to work if i add --no-xcpretty

StefanoBiasu · 2017-11-06T09:11:00Z

Thanks @tianshunjian for reporting my issue.
Tried with --no-xcpretty, seems to work even for me.
Thanks @jvillard

jvillard · 2017-11-06T16:27:13Z

Thanks all for testing. By default infer pipes xcodebuild output to xcpretty to get a compilation database. --no-xcpretty makes infer use a different integration that works by having xcodebuild call infer directly instead of calling clang. The latter used to be more fragile, but now it looks like it's the other way around.

The xcpretty-based integration should be fixed, but in the meantime please use the --no-xcpretty workaround.

StefanoBiasu · 2017-11-16T09:05:08Z

A question: both --no-xcpretty and --no-liveness options are not mentioned in infer documentation (or I cannot find them). If they are not already there, when are they going to be added to documentation? Is it possible to have a global text search for the documentation?

Hi @tefanoBiasu, the options are available in infer --help. The help is very comprehensive, it's work getting familiar with the different options.

StefanoBiasu · 2017-11-16T14:35:27Z

Ok, thanks, I’ll check that in case of doubts!
