Sample app required

[martinvalenta]

Is there any sample app available which shows how to integrate MusicKit into one own's project?

I can build the project, especially the frameworks. However, when I try to include the framework via #import <MusicKit/MusicKit.h> I get the error Could not build module 'MusicKit'. Also, the expression FOUNDATION_EXPORT in MusikKit.h causes trouble. In that header I also get multiple file not found errors, e.g. for #import <MusicKit/VMKColor.h>.

Is there something wrong with the project set-up or am I missing something?

[alejandro-isaza]

There were some project settings that needed to be adjusted. Try my fork: https://github.com/aleph7/musickit

[martinvalenta]

That did the trick! Thanks!

Where should I push code improvements to? To this repository or to your fork?

[alejandro-isaza]

You can post them here. I'll merge my changes here as well.

[ivan-milic]

I have the same problem as martinvalenta posted. Are there any solutions?

[aidangomez]

@ivan-milic Did you try @Aleph7's fork?

[ivan-milic]

@aidangomez aren't those two the same now?

[aidangomez]

@ivan-milic No, I don't think @martinvalenta ever PR'd his changes here.

[alejandro-isaza]

I did merge my changes here.

[aidangomez]

@Aleph7 Whelp, nevermind.

[ivan-milic]

@Aleph7 Are you aware what was the problem because i am having the exact same that @martinvalenta mentioned. And btw, do you, by any chance, have any sample application that uses your framework just so i can see how it's used?

[alejandro-isaza]

It was a problem with the project settings. Maybe something changed again in Xcode 8.1. I'll look into it in the next couple of days. There is a sample preview app in the project but that is the only thing that is publicly available.

[alejandro-isaza]

@ivan-milic can you run PreviewGenerator? It works fine for me. It currently doesn't support any package manager because it has C++ dependencies but you can include all the sources directly on your project.

[ivan-milic]

@Aleph7 yes, i can run the PreviewGenerator. I get the above mentioned error when i import the MusicKit.framework into another project and try to build it. Also when i import the MusicKit header into the MusicKitApp inside this project, i get the "cmath file not found" error when i try to build it.

[ivan-milic]

@Aleph7 I changed the build settings for MusicKitApp target to compile sources as Objective-C++ rather than "According to file type" and i can build it successfully. I just wish there was a manual for using this framework or like a sample iOS app which just shows how to read a musicXML file and display the sheet music in the app.

@Aleph7 I am getting the error 'mxml/geometry/Point.h' when I include MusicKit.framework in my separate Xcode project. It seems like it's not finding any of the mxml headers. Can you help?

[alejandro-isaza]

make sure you run git submodule update --init --recursive

[dkun7944]

@Aleph7 Thanks. Getting a different error now (making progress!) The MusicKitApp builds and runs successfully but my app still doesn't. I tried changing the target to compile sources as Objective-C++ rather than "According to file type" I'm getting:

'cmath' file not found

and

Include of non-modular header inside framework module 'MusicKit.VMKGeometry': .../Point.h

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly!

[alejandro-isaza]

No problem. Make sure you have C++11 as the compiler. Not sure about the header thing, I'll have look later.

[dkun7944]

@Aleph7 Figured it out. In MusicKit.framework, the build setting 'Allow Non-modular Includes in Framework Modules' should be set to YES.

[dkun7944]

@Aleph7 Let me know when you have a chance to take a look. Still having issues with it finding the mxml lib, but PreviewGenerator compiles and runs great.

[alejandro-isaza]

I though that was fixed, did you try git submodule update --init --recursive? I just cloned, ran that then pod install and everything compiled fine.

[dkun7944]

@Aleph7 yes, but if you try to import MusicKit (not MusicKitOSX) inside the a file in MusicKitApp, it does not compile.

[dkun7944]

@Aleph7 Any chance we could get a sample iOS app to see how this is implemented? Trying to use VMKPageScoreLayout and VMKPageScoreDataSource but getting null pointer exceptions.

[alejandro-isaza]

Sorry, wish I could help, haven't worked on this in a while and am pretty busy.

[cerupcat]

Curious if there's an update on this. Would love to see a simple sample app that demonstrates the capabilities.

[cerupcat]

Thanks, I'm asking more for the general audience (and myself) since it's hard to tell what is/isn't implemented without more documentation. I seem to have some parts working, but other parts I get crashes (working with the cursor types, for example). In my limited experimentation, I also haven't figured out how to get the cursor to show or what the recommended way is for moving the cursor along to the music. A basic example showing how to display page and scroll score rendering along with illustrating how the cursor works in both scenarios would be great and help with adoption/support.

Thanks for asking again, but I’ve already figured this out. The iOS rendering library compiles and works great in Crescendo and Notella.
