libs/frameworks

[derda]

Hi

 

I've added some libs to "external frameworks & libs" in Xcode. Now while compiling it says to not find -L path/is/wrong

 

So how to adjust the -L path for linking in xcode?

 

Are there any differences between libs and framworks? I have to compile it later also on Linux, so thanks for help.

Frameworks basically are libraries that you add to your project.

 

To properly use a framework, you must create and initialize at run-time according to the conventional way as described in the Apple docs about Framework bundles.

 

a typical framework bundle should be created as followed:

 

example:

 

MyFramework.framework/
   MyFramework  -> Versions/Current/MyFramework
   Resources    -> Versions/Current/Resources
   Versions/
    A/
	    MyFramework
	    Resources/
		    English.lproj/
			    InfoPlist.strings
		    Info.plist
    Current  -> A

 

Of course this is just a very basic example of a framework bundle structure but it really doesn't get any more difficult than this depending on the complexity of the Framework you want to create yourself.

 

I believe your issue might be the fact that you're just adding in the frameworks into X while they aren't in the conventional framework bundle format that X recognizes. A possible recode of your frameworks into the X format should easily rectify your issues hopefully.
