XCode PCH Errors

Question

From what I can tell, this has not been asked before. I am building a cocoa touch static library and I have been going along fine until yesterday, right after I checked the project into SVN, it no longer builds and I have 36 errors in my PCH. This is all my PCH is, and I have found no problems with it in the past:

//
// Prefix header for all source files of the 'CocoaTouchStaticLibrary' target in the 'CocoaTouchStaticLibrary' project.
//

#ifdef __OBJC__
    #import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
#endif

And I get these errors:

Couple things:

1. I am not using the UIKit frameworks, so why is there uikit related errors?

2. Sorry about the MYPROJECT junk, but the project is confidential right now.

Thank you all in advance

Try this, maybe helps

#import <Availability.h>

#ifdef __OBJC__
    #import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
    #import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#endif

I also suggest you to do all the possible cleaning project stuff and making sure that you selected a correct/existing SDK.
