I know how to create a framework in Xcode 5. But in Xcode 6 how to combine both a simulator framework & a device framework? When I try to combine I get a code signing error. When I use lipo
to combine both framework, I also get an error.
Error: Command /bin/sh failed with exit code 65
My solution to create universal framework in xcode6.
Try these steps:
Step 1:
File—>
New —>
Project —>
Framework & Library —>
Next —>
Product Name
Step 2: Create custom class files
Step 3:
Target ->
Build phase ->
Headers,
Makes all header files into public. Now build in simulator & device.
Step 4:
File ->
New ->
Target ->
iOS ->
Other ->
Aggrigate ->somename eg: framework
Step 5:
From Targets —>
Custom aggregate target(Eg: Framework)—>
Build Phase—>
Add Run script
Step 6: Add following shell code
in run script
///
UNIVERSAL_OUTPUTFOLDER=${BUILD_DIR}/${CONFIGURATION}-universal
# make sure the output directory exists
mkdir -p "${UNIVERSAL_OUTPUTFOLDER}"
# Step 1. Build Device and Simulator versions
xcodebuild -target "${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 ${CONFIGURATION} -sdk iphonesimulator -arch x86_64 BUILD_DIR="${BUILD_DIR}" BUILD_ROOT="${BUILD_ROOT}" clean build
# Step 2. Copy the framework structure to the universal folder
cp -R "${BUILD_DIR}/${CONFIGURATION}-iphoneos/${PROJECT_NAME}.framework" "${UNIVERSAL_OUTPUTFOLDER}/"
# Step 3. Create universal binary file using lipo and place the combined executable in the copied framework directory
lipo -create -output "${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 7:
Goto active scheme —>
Custom aggregate —>
Build
Step 8: Now right click framework from products in Xcode & click show in finder.
Check "Debug-universal” folder & get universal framework.
