Error: “File was built for archive which is not the architecture being linked (armv7s)”

Question

I have built my own Static C++ Library, which is built with the settings:

• Architectures: armv7, armv7s
• Build Active Architectures Only: No
• Su

Answer 1

I ran into a similar problem myself. @graver's solution is definitely valid.

The issue was that the library was being built for armv7 instead of armv7s. You can verify this yourself by using lipo <path/to/lib.a> -info.

Setting the Build Active Architectures Only option to No fixes the issue.

Hope this helps.
