Trying to build a universal binary...
-
Hi,
I am trying to update my Cocoa Browser to a universal binary
and seem to have run into a brick wall ;(
I have set for my 'universal' build configuration ( in the get info
dialog) the following values:
Architectures i386 ppc
Base SDK Path /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk
Mac OS X Deployment Target Mac OS X 10.4
When I build the project, none of the object files are ever
compiled with the '-arch ppc' flag and a thin intel binary is
built...
The external frameworks and libs are:
Foundation, AppKit,WebKit, libssl.dylib
QuickTime, Carbon, libcrypto, Cocoa and
libjhlpq.a ( a fat archive containing libpq
the postgresql c interface library).
Can anyone tell me what the problem might be?
Is there anyway to find out why no attempt is
made to compile with the arch ppc flag?
Thanks

Ran into this myself today. Double click the target and make sure
that the Architectures setting isn't overridden there. It probably
is; select it and hit backspace to delete the override and rely upon
the project level architecture setting.

Are you building Debug or Release? By default, Xcode sets up the
project settings to architecture specific for Debug and universal for
Release. This drove me crazy for a while because I didn't notice that
setting the project window build mode to Debug doesn't necessarily
cause the build settings to open with the Debug configuration displayed. -

Apparently over the years my project file had become corrupt (at least
that
is the theory).
So... I spent the morning trying to recreate the project.
I started with a new project and started to add all of the source
files from the
old project. I also copied the nib files...trying to recreate the nibs
would have
been a disaster.
After a bit of trial and error ( I had some redundant files in the
project and
had to figure out which were the current rascals) the project finally
was
able to build.
I was able to create a Universal Binary that runs on my intel box
running Leopard and
my wife's ppc box that is running the latest version of Panther.
Whew!
