"Could not find any information for class named ViewController"
This bug has been driving me nuts since I started using Xcode (4.6.3). Whenever I try to link a Storyboard item to my code, I get the error:
Could not find any information for class named ViewController.
This happens with custom classes as well. I've tried methods such as:
- Deleting the delegate data.
- Removing and re-adding the classes.
- Restarting Xcode.
- Reinstalling Xcode.
I can't ctrl-drag to create connections in any of my projects no matter what the class is. The same problem happens with a brand-new template application. If I type in the code manually and then ctrl-drag, I can make a working connection, but I can't add it automatically. Nothing I've been able to find so far on the Internet has helped. Any pointers?

What solved this issue for me was actually deleting the class from the project.
Steps:
- In the project file explorer (left panel) find the class and right click -> Delete
- Remove reference (do not move to trash as you will lose the class for good)
- Right click on the folder that contained the class -> Add files to ...
- Find the class you just deleted in the file system
This seems to force Xcode to link the class back into the storyboard.
Note: for me the following did not work:
- Closing Xcode
- Cleaning the project
- Deleting the class name from the storyboard and re-entering it
I think this is a bug on Apple's part
