Referencing App Object Across Multiple Build Targets iOS

Question

I need to make several versions of an iOS application each with a different target and name. Most of the differences between the applications are in the applications resources and not the source code. I am trying to share as much source code across versions as possible.

My issue arises when I try to access the application object in a version which does not have the same name as the original. For instance, I have two versions of the application named UserApp and UserApp2 and the following code which references the data store:

var user = UserApp.User

When I try to run this code in the UserApp2 target, it throws an error saying UserApp is undefined.

My question is: How can I make this code load the proper application object depending on what target is currently running? I would like a solution that can be used across all targets without the need to change code.

EDIT: The UserApp object is an XCDataModel.

The UserApp class might not be added in all of your application targets. verify the target membership for the class.

The UserApp object has membership across all targets. Also, I neglected to mention that UserApp is a data model and not a class. – Adam Jakiela Aug 30 '15 at 17:48
Is this coredata .xcdatamodel file? – Shoaib Aug 30 '15 at 17:59
Yes it is UserApp.xcdatamodel file. – Adam Jakiela Aug 30 '15 at 18:27
I wonder if you can use .xcdatamodelId file in you code like this for any of the targets. – Shoaib Aug 31 '15 at 06:36
