Dynamsoft library not built for ARM64
Good day,
when building on Apple M Chips without any special flags (Ie setting architecture to x86_64) or enabling rosetta, the yarn iOS command fails due to this error:
building for iOS Simulator, but linking in dylib built for iOS, file '/Users/dlopatynskyi/Documents/GitHub/buni-powerpass-app/ios/Pods/DynamsoftBarcodeReader/DynamsoftBarcodeReader.framework/DynamsoftBarcodeReader' for architecture arm64
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
My understanding is that it is because it is not built for ARM64 architecture.
Can you please have a look?
thank you in advance.

Hi @DenysLopatynskyiB
Option 1: In the workspace Go to target->Build Settings and exclude the Arm64 architecture.
Option 2: Exclude Arm64 via the podfile:
post_install do |installer| installer.pods_project.build_configurations.each do |config| config.build_settings["EXCLUDED_ARCHS[sdk=iphonesimulator*]"] = "arm64" end end
Thank you for the workarounds, but your library is the only one that requires this.
I would prefer if we could keep our Podfile and Project settings "clean" or "out of the box".
Is there much required to build your Lib for arm 64?
Hi @DenysLopatynskyiB
This library only supports ARM64 (iPhone), x86_64 (Simulator). ARM64 (Simulator) is not supported. That's why it requires this workaround.
This library is not supposed to be run on a simulator because it requires a camera.

Hi @Dynamsoft-Henry , I agree with you, that it doesn't need to work/be supported in the Simulator, BUT, it shouldn't be breaking builds.
Hi @DenysLopatynskyiB It is a historical issue of this library. The 1.x versions of this library were compiled from .framework which can't exclude the unsupported architectures automatically.
We are developing a 2.x version (based on the .xcframeworks). The new version will no longer ask you to exclude the architectures manually. The new version will be released in a few months.
That sounds great. Will wait for the 2.x version to be released then.
Thank you for your help.
