deleteInBackgroundWithBlock Mac OS X

[tomcoomer]

I am using the code below that has previously worked to delete an object. However, after updating to the latest SDK, It no longer seems to be working. Any ideas?
Thanks

var query = PFQuery(className:"MyClass")
        query.getObjectInBackgroundWithId("myObjectId") {
            (gameScore: PFObject?, error: NSError?) -> Void in
            if error == nil && gameScore != nil {
                println(gameScore)
                gameScore!.deleteInBackgroundWithBlock({ (success, error) -> Void in
                    println("Deleted")
                })
            } else {
                println(error)
            }
        }

Go you see anything printed to the console?
It's hard to track this one down, since the code above works (just tested locally).

The line:

println("Deleted")

Does print but when I log into Parse.com the object is still there.

Can you try reproducing the problem with curl and/or REST API? I suspect this to be a backend problem, since the client code finishes with some deterministic output.

Also based on your code - can you try printing the error that you get in the final closure? (deleteInBackground callback error).

I have printed out the Parse version and it printed version 1.8.0. I have updated to 1.8.1 and now the project won't build and shows the error below:

Warning: usage of --preserve-metadata with option "resource-rules" (deprecated in Mac OS X >= 10.10)!
/Users/name/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/AppName/Build/Products/Debug/AppName.app/Contents/Frameworks/Parse.framework/Versions/A: code object is not signed at all
In subcomponent: /Users/name/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/AppName/Build/Products/Debug/AppName.app/Contents/Frameworks/Parse.framework/Versions/A/Parse

Based on the error message looks like you are missing Code sign on copy for Parse.framework.
Try adding it in build phase that copies your framework, then cleaning and building again.

[tomcoomer]

The Code sign on copy Boxes are checked for both Parse.framework and Bolts.framework

[nlutsenko]

Cleaning Xcode DerivedData I guess didn't help as well?
Last question, what is your method of installing the SDK: Cocoapods, directly from source, packages from releases? It's relevant to at least being able to identify the problem you are running in after the SDK is updated.

There was a bug change between 1.8 and 1.8.1 - the framework was renamed into Parse.framework instead of ParseOSX.framework. Would that be related to something you are running into?

The warning above simply says that code signing failed or that the copied framework inside your app is completely not code signed, but it should be.

[tomcoomer]

I have downloaded the SDK from Parse.com then installed by dragging it into my Xcode Project. I Have also changed the Bridging Header form #import <ParseOSX/ParseOSX.h> to #import <Parse/Parse.h>

I have just deleted the Derived Data and built the project again but it has the same error.

[tomcoomer]

Would using Cocoapods fix this issue?

[nlutsenko]

Yup, that would help a lot.
I just reproduced the problem and I know the reason it's failing.
Cocoapods wouldn't have that problem.

[tomcoomer]

I have just installed version 1.8.1 and I am having the same issue with the deleteInBackgroundWithBlock

[nlutsenko]

Ok, one problem resolved - onto the next one.
Any chance you can print out the error from that last closure? (the completion of deleteInBackgroundWithBlock)

I am using println("Error: \(error?.localizedDescription)") and it prints Error: nil

Full code:

var query = PFQuery(className:"Layers")
        query.getObjectInBackgroundWithId("dWidTdCfy3") {
            (gameScore: PFObject?, error: NSError?) -> Void in
            if error == nil && gameScore != nil {
                println(gameScore)
                gameScore!.deleteInBackgroundWithBlock({ (success, error) -> Void in
                    println("Deleted")

                    println("Error: \(error?.localizedDescription)")

                })
            } else {
                println(error)
            }
        }
