Question

I am trying to create a single .a file which will contain 3 different .a files so that I could share only one .a file. This is the command I am using

lipo -create -output ./libOutput.a ./libInput1.lib ./libInput2.lib ./libInput3.lib

but I am getting this lipo error:

./libInput1.lib and ./libInput2.lib
have the same architectures (i386) and
can’t be in the same fat output file

Any idea how to get rid of this?

Answer 1

I just had that same error message, and it was due to the fact that I had my architecture set to “other” and had typed in arm6. To fix the problem I simply changed my architecture setting to one of the default values, in my case I picked Standard (arm6 arm7). The Architectures setting can be found in your project build settings.
