Can't Compile Crypto++ Library for IOS

I'm trying to build a static cryptopp library for ios. I'm basing my steps from these sites: http://cryptopp.com/wiki/IOS_(Command_Line)#Xcode_Project
https://github.com/noloader/cryptopp-5.6.2-ios
https://www.cryptopp.com/

1.) I downloaded the latest cryptopp version 5.6.3
2.) I downloaded noloader's cryptopp-5.6.2-ios becasue it has updated:

setenv-ios.sh - i had to edit this to search for sdk 9.2
GNUmakefile
config.h
build-for-ios.sh


3.) I copied the four files to my cryptopp 5.6.3 directory and replaced GNUmakefile and config.h
4.) I checked out IOS_Command_Line instruction to invoke setenv-ios.sh first.
5.) Then, as noloader said, run build-for-ios.sh.

However, i'm getting this error: enter image description here


Has anyone successfully built the library using the latest ios SDK and cryptopp version? If so, can you please point me to the right direction. Thanks.

Solution

  • The documentation was not correct under IOS (Command Line) | Build the Library. After setting the environment with setenv-ios.sh, you should use GNUmakefile-cross:

    $ make -f GNUmakefile-cross static dynamic cryptest.exe
clang++ -DNDEBUG -g2 -Os -fPIC -pipe -Wall -Wno-delete-non-virtual-dtor  -arch armv7 -isysroot 
/Applications/Xcode-5_1.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS7.1.sdk
-stdlib=libc++ -c cryptlib.cpp
clang++ -DNDEBUG -g2 -Os -fPIC -pipe -Wall -Wno-delete-non-virtual-dtor  -arch armv7 -isysroot 
/Applications/Xcode-5_1.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS7.1.sdk
-stdlib=libc++ -c cpu.cpp
clang++ -DNDEBUG -g2 -Os -fPIC -pipe -Wall -Wno-delete-non-virtual-dtor  -arch armv7 -isysroot 
/Applications/Xcode-5_1.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS7.1.sdk
-stdlib=libc++ -c 3way.cpp
...

    I thought we updated the iOS procedures when we updated the Android procedures. I'm not sure what went wrong the documentation updates.

    We checked in the scripts for setenv-ios.sh, setenv-android.sh and setenv-embedded.sh in March 2016. GNUmakefile-cross was already in the library. Also see Commit a78b9dfa0840f92f, Added iOS environment and test script and Commit 22d6374ce7151ad0, Added Android and embedded environment and test script.

    All you should need to do now is the following:

    git clone https://github.com/weidai11/cryptopp.git
cd cryptopp

. ./setenv-ios.sh
make -f GNUmakefile-cross static dynamic cryptest.exe
...

    The new/updated files will be available in the ZIP at the next Crypto++ release, which will be either 5.6.4 or 5.7.0.
