Hi

 

Any latest tutorials or links on how to set up Firebase Push notifications on iOS?

If by "setup" you're referring to how to set up a project in Firebase Console, you should start here:

 

 

..and watch until the 4:52 mark (the rest is not relevant to Delphi)

 

For Delphi code to implement FCM on iOS, you could refer to this article:

Hi Dave

 

Thank you for the information. Following the information you gave, I've set up Firebase for iOS 64-bit. Everything compiles fine (but crashes on launch) without adding -ObjC to the "Options passed to the LD linker". When I add -ObjC to the "Options passed to the LD linker" I'm getting the following error (346 errors in fact) during compilation:

 

[DCC Error] E2597 ld: warning: dwarf DW_FORM_strp (offset=0xFFFFFFDC) is too big in c:\program files (x86)\embarcadero\studio\20.0\lib\iOSDevice64\Release\libibtogo.a(ail.o).

 

Any ideas on how to solve it?

BTW, the error I'm getting is when I use the latest Firebase SDK 6.14. When I use 6.3 it's compiling fine. When I run the app, it's asking me if I want the app to send me notifications. When I click yes and every time I run the app after that it is hanging.

 

Not sure what I'm missing here.

Yes, I have that issue too. I've been meaning to report the problem.

It presents the prompt every time you run it? Which app is this?

No. The first time I run the app, it's prompting me and then hanging. After that it is never prompting; just hanging.

The version of the app is not uploaded to the app store yet.

Have you tried tracing the code via the debugger? Can you provide a reproducible example?

Hi Dave. I'm attaching the log from the XCode Console.

There does not appear to be anything in the log that gives any clues as to why it hangs. This why it's important to also use the debugger and/or refine the code into a reproducible test case.

Hi Dave

 

After a million trial and errors, I found out that the issue is with TFDPhysSQLiteDriverLink. To replicate the issue, just drop a TFDPhysSQLiteDriverLink in the KastriFree EMBTFCMv2Demo and run it on iOS. No extra code needed. I've also tried the workaround posted by you in RSP-18329.

 

FYI, android has no problem.

 

I'm using Delphi 10.3.3 Enterprise.

Finally problem solved:

 

Copying the FireDAC.inc file to the project folder and altering it didn't work. However, altering it in the C:\Program Files (x86)\Embarcadero\Studio\xx.0\source\data\FireDAC folder solved the problem.

 

Thank you @Dave Nottage for your valuable assistance.

I have no  FireDAC.inc  on hand right now, what did you change there ?

 

Is there a link to libibtogo, or is it possible that you have added libibtogo. to the deployment somehow ?

Whoops! Yeah, I actually discovered that after my comment on the report. I've now updated it.
