could not encode class bundle

[prothero at earthlearningsolutions.org]

Pianos,
This kind of error message seems so useful that I wonder why it isn't in the IDE by default. One thing that I could wish for is more error messages and/or help for folks going through the app building process. Like, why isn't there an error message that warns the developer that they are using the wrong version of Xcode? This is just one example. Issues of code signing, provisioning, etc are so, so frustrating. Couldn't more descriptive error messages and version checking be implemented?

Best,
Bill
