SQLCipher in ios6 Undefined symbols for architecture armv7s (architecture already changed)

[jeven36]

Hi,

I have a problem building sqlcipher with xcode 4.5.2. Basically I followed the examples at http://mobileorchard.com/tutorial-iphone-sqlite-encryption-with-sqlcipher/ and http://sqlcipher.net/ios-tutorial/ . Unfortunately I end up with a message telling me that the ssl lib and the sqlcipher lib are not build for armv7s.

Error message:

ld: warning: ignoring file /Users/jeven/Library/Developer/<...>/Debug-iphoneos/libsqlcipher.a, file was built for archive which is not the architecture being linked (armv7s): /Users/jeven/Library/Developer/<...>/Debug-iphoneos/libsqlcipher.a

I know this has been posted a couple of times but I already changed the target architecture for the openssl and the sqlcipher projects, as you can see in the following screen shots.

openssl:

sqlcipher:

I am really kind of stuck here :( Does anyone has a hint for me?

(I posted this question also at stack overflow.com and I promise to cross link the answer ;) )

Ismael on Stackoverflow gave me a working answer. After I removed the architecture armv7s in the subprojects (openssl and sqlcipher) it worked. --> Stackoverflow: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14021019/sqlcipher-in-ios6-undefined-symbols-for-architecture-armv7s-architecture-alread/

That sounds like a viable workaround, but not a permanent fix. What version of SQLCipher hare you using?

[jeven36]

Hi, I cloned the master from github today. So I guess it's the lastest version right? The "VERSION" file tells me 3.7.14.1

Hello Kevin,

That is interesting. You should not need to adjust the target architectures on the sqlcipher or openssl projects. They should be inherited automatically from the top level project. Could you try resetting your changes to those files, and ensure that the defaults are set on your top level project?

I have a feeling something else might be going wrong with the armv7s build. Could you post a full build log as a gist.github.com once you've reset all the settings to the defaults?

Thanks!

Hi Steven,

I have the same issue as @jeven36 here above. I've tried all sorts of proposed solutions but nothing seems to work out. Here's my compil log. Could you have a look at it, please?

I also tried to remove armv7s from sqlcipher but the result is the same. I could, I suppose, remove armv7s from the main project, but that doesn't seem to be a valid long-term solution.

[sjlombardo]

@discoverypublisher could you please provide the entire build log, from start to finish for the whole application including openssl and sqlcipher. Please first:

1. Open finder, navigate to ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/ and delete all the files under the derived data folder in your home directory
2. run a project clean

Then build your project and capture the entire log. We need the whole thing to see if there is s ome other failure earlier in the run.

[art-lucas]

Thank you @sjlombardo. I've done (1) & (2) but the result is the same. I've uploaded the compil output. I'd appreciate if you could have a look at it. Thank you for your great work on this, it's really the best code out there.

I have the same problem. It works after removing armv7s in the main project. Is there any update for this issue?

[sjlombardo]

Hi likexx, Can you provide a full build log in a gist.github.com for us to take a look at?

[art-lucas]

Hi @sjlombardo, do you have any news on my issue, above (Undefined symbols for architecture armv7s)?

[sjlombardo]

Can you try explicitly setting the top-level project architectures to "armv7 armv7s"?

[sjlombardo]

@discoverypublisher @likexx - can you please open the sqlcipher sub-project and explicitly set valid architectures to "armv7 armv7s i386 x86_64"? Then do a clean and rebuild, let me know if that resolves the issue.
