Question

Could not determine generated file paths for Core Data code generation: Er

Answer 1

In Xcode, select your Model.xcdatamodeld model and tick the checkbox "Target Membership" for your new target in the Inspector.

Answer 2

Module Inspector > Module > Current Product Module

Clean and Build afterwards.

Answer 3

In my case, I had renamed the directory in which my .xcdatamodel resided, which resulted in the old filename entry not being removed from my Target's Compile Sources phase.

All I had to do was remove the old file from the Compile Sources phase, by searching for xcdatamodeld and removing the relevant (now irrelevant...) entry in my target's Build Phases tab:

• Don't forget to do this for ALL the targets that contain your Core Data data model.

Once you're done, make sure that your actual current .xcdatamodeld file is added to your target. You do this:

b) And then ticking the boxes of all targets that you want this file to be a part of, in Xcode's File Inspector (right column -> first icon), under Target Membership:

Answer 4

In my case in File Selector Code Generation was Selected as Swift. As I selected Code generation language as Objective-C. Error Disappeared.

After selecting Objective-C

Product > Clean

and then Rebuild the project.

This worked for me.

Answer 5

Just Clean and Build worked for me after adding Core Data manually (not from the start of the project).
