How to build Cocoa Touch Framework for i386 and x86_64 architecture?

问题:

After building a Cocoa Touch framework (Swift or Object-C) and adding it to another project as "Embedded Binaries" I get the following error message when I try to build

missing required architecture i386 ... ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture i386 clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation) 

Following various existing answers and extended research I already added i386 to the Architectures build settings …

However this doesn't seem to have an effect. When I check using

lipo -info TesterFrameworkObjC 

I only get

Architectures in the fat file: TesterFrameworkObjC are: armv7 arm64 

… shouldn't i386 (and x86_64) appear here as well? What am I missing?

(I am using Xcode 6.2 + building for iOS 8.2)

Some new insights

Using a version of this build script I am able to build the missing architectures for the Swift version of the framework.

However when I add this framework to my app and build I still get errors

Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64:   "_OBJC_CLASS_$__TtC20TesterFrameworkSwift18TestFrameworkSwift", referenced from:   objc-class-ref in ViewController.o ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64 

Looking at the final build folder building for the simulator

Build/Products/Debug-iphoneos/TesterFrameworkSwift.framework/ 

I can see that the architectures are still missing although they were part of the framework (as shown). How can I ensure all the right architecture builds of my framework are included when building the app?

Update

Looking at all the error messages to me it looks like the issue isn't actually to have the wrong products/archictures being built but one step later there the Linker isn't using the correct paths to them. Not sure how correct this.

This is the same problem that I had.

Seems this is a Xcode bug, I workaround it by adding a build script. It will just compile your library with all architectures, and lipo it to fat binary image.

Also note

Looking at the final build folder building for the simulator

Build/Products/Debug-iphoneos/TesterFrameworkSwift.framework/

you are looking x86_64 and i386 images in iphone build folder, they should be in Debug-iphonesimulator/TesterFrameworkSwift.framework/

Also there is a recursion issue in your script, I've corrected it.

 UNIVERSAL_OUTPUTFOLDER=${BUILD_DIR}/${CONFIGURATION}-universal  if [ "true" == ${ALREADYINVOKED:-false} ] then echo "RECURSION: Detected, stopping" else export ALREADYINVOKED="true"  # Step 1. Build Device and Simulator versions xcodebuild -target "${PROJECT_NAME}" ONLY_ACTIVE_ARCH=NO -configuration ${CONFIGURATION} -sdk iphoneos  BUILD_DIR="${BUILD_DIR}" BUILD_ROOT="${BUILD_ROOT}" clean build xcodebuild -target "${PROJECT_NAME}" -configuration ${CONFIGURATION} -sdk iphonesimulator ONLY_ACTIVE_ARCH=NO BUILD_DIR="${BUILD_DIR}" BUILD_ROOT="${BUILD_ROOT}" clean build  # Step 2. Copy the framework structure (from iphoneos build) to the universal folder cp -R "${BUILD_DIR}/${CONFIGURATION}-iphoneos/${PROJECT_NAME}.framework" "${UNIVERSAL_OUTPUTFOLDER}/"  # Step 3. Copy Swift modules (from iphonesimulator build) to the copied framework directory cp -R "${BUILD_DIR}/${CONFIGURATION}-iphonesimulator/${PROJECT_NAME}.framework/Modules/${PROJECT_NAME}.swiftmodule/." "${UNIVERSAL_OUTPUTFOLDER}/${PROJECT_NAME}.framework/Modules/${PROJECT_NAME}.swiftmodule"  # Step 4. Create universal binary file using lipo and place the combined executable in the copied framework directory lipo -create -output "${UNIVERSAL_OUTPUTFOLDER}/${PROJECT_NAME}.framework/${PROJECT_NAME}" "${BUILD_DIR}/${CONFIGURATION}-iphonesimulator/${PROJECT_NAME}.framework/${PROJECT_NAME}" "${BUILD_DIR}/${CONFIGURATION}-iphoneos/${PROJECT_NAME}.framework/${PROJECT_NAME}"  # Step 5. Convenience step to copy the framework to the project's directory cp -R "${UNIVERSAL_OUTPUTFOLDER}/${PROJECT_NAME}.framework" "${PROJECT_DIR}"  # Step 6. Convenience step to open the project's directory in Finder open "${PROJECT_DIR}"  fi  

6) Hit "cmd + B" (Build Project)

7) Open Product in Finder

8) Navigate 1 directory up ("cmd + ↑"), and you will see "Release-universal" directory.

There will be your "fat/universal" library, You are ready to go!

You can check it via

file test.dylib  test.dylib: Mach-O universal binary with 4 architectures test.dylib (for architecture i386): Mach-O dynamically linked shared library i386 test.dylib (for architecture x86_64):   Mach-O 64-bit dynamically linked shared library x86_64 test.dylib (for architecture armv7):    Mach-O dynamically linked shared library arm test.dylib (for architecture arm64):    Mach-O 64-bit dynamically linked shared library

I encounter the same problem and fortunately I solved it.

When you create a framework with Xcode and build it with the iPhone 5 simulator or the simulator before iPhone 5(such as iPhone 4s or iPhone 4),you will get a framework with i386 architecture.And if you build it with iPhone 5s simulator or the simulatro after iPhone 5s,you will get a framework with x86_64 architecture. But if you use the framework in your project and you want to run the app on a simulator,the framework must contain both i386 and x86_64 architecture,otherwise you will get a linker error. So you need to use lipo -create command to merge two framework,at this point your framework is ready for use.

Active Architecture => NO Valid Architecture => "armv7 armv7s arm64 i386 x86_64"

Use Above Build Setting when in are aggregating !!! I worked for me for all Architecture Framework creation
