unable to build WordPress apps on iOS - linker/clang error

[Rachna]

I am following exactly the steps as given at this link https://github.com/calabash/x-platform-example for running the WordPress app.

-  OSX version - 10.7.3

- Xcode version - 4.5.2

- calabash-cucumber gem ((0.9.148)

And when I build I get this error:

ld: library not found for -lPods

clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

Please help. I am able to run calabash-ios setup command successfully and I see the wordpress-cal in the target when I open through Xcode.

Its when I run through Xcode I get the error as above.

Thanks for all suggestions.

Are you working in the .xcworkspace or the .xcodeproj ? It is much simpler to just use the command in the README to build..

Hi 

I tried in .xcworkspace and it worked but it does not work in .xcodeproj. Can u pls explain why it does not work in xcode proj and how would it work.

It works through the command prompt command as well.

thanks.

Well, the command:

xcodebuild build -workspace WordPress.xcworkspace -scheme WordPress-cal -configuration Debug -sdk iphonesimulator6.1 DEPLOYMENT_LOCATION=YES DSTROOT=build TARGETED_DEVICE_FAMILY=1

Is using the WordPress-cal scheme in the WordPress.xcworkspace to build.

If that works on the command line - i.e. builds the app and you can run the tests. Then you should be able to build from XCode (just make sure you close all XCode windows before you open WordPress.xcworkspace).
