Hello,

I have a problem with my application. For more than 14 hours I’m looking for…  
I hope you will help me please 🙂

I managed to run my application with Xcode on my iPad, this one works perfectly.

But I encounter very difficult errors :  
`‘Cordova/CDVViewController.h’`

I looked [everywhere](https://forum.ionicframework.com/t/cordova-cdvviewcontroller-h-file-not-found-in-xcode-7-1-beta/32232) but whatever I do, it does not correct my mistake.  
**Example :**  
add `"$(OBJROOT)/UninstalledProducts/$(PLATFORM_NAME)/include"` doesn’t work

I even tried to recreate an ionic project … But it changes nothing.

My configuration:  
`xcode : version 7.3.1`  
`ionic : version 2.0.0`  
`cordova : 6.3.1`

**EDIT :** I don’t have a paid developer account.

Thanks in advance 🙂

Yes!  
I was forgetting ionic build ios command after the ionic platform add ios.  
You can try with ionic hooks add between them.

ionic hooks add command will add certain default Cordova hooks given by ionic to help assist the ionic project development.
