iOS App Store submissions
Removing simulator architectures
To work around an Xcode App Store submission bug, the WikitudeNativeSDK.framework contains a shell script that removes the simulator architectures from the .framework. This script can either be run from the Terminal
application or a Run Script Phase
in Xcode.
Here is a snippet for the Terminal
application. Note that the path to the script and the path to the WikitudeNativeSDK.framework needs to be known.
sh *PATH/TO/THE/WIKITUDE/SDK/PACKAGE*/Tools/Scripts/strip_wikitude_framework.sh -s -p *PATH/TO/THE/WikitudeNativeSDK.framework
To run this script in a Run Script Phase
, simply copy the following snippet into a new Run Script Phase
text field. Please make sure that the Run Script Phase
is positioned right after the Embed Frameworks
build phase (You can reorder individual build phases).
sh "${BUILT_PRODUCTS_DIR}/${FRAMEWORKS_FOLDER_PATH}/WikitudeNativeSDK.framework/strip_wikitude_framework.sh" -s -p "${BUILT_PRODUCTS_DIR}/${FRAMEWORKS_FOLDER_PATH}/WikitudeNativeSDK.framework"
Bitcode
The WikitudeNativeSDK.framework contains Bitcode
information to support App Thinning. Building a .framework with bitcode enabled leads to a larger file size. In case the application that uses the WikitudeNativeSDK.framework does not support bitcode and file size is a problem, bitcode information can be removed using the wikitude_bitcode.sh
shell script. This script can either be run from the Terminal
application or a Run Script Phase
in Xcode. Wikitude recommends to use the Terminal
application to not unnecessarily increase build time.
Here is a snippet for the Terminal
application. Note that the path to the script and the path to the WikitudeNativeSDK.framework needs to be known.
sh *PATH/TO/THE/WIKITUDE/SDK/PACKAGE*/Tools/Scripts/wikitude_bitcode.sh -s -p *PATH/TO/THE/WikitudeNativeSDK.framework
Here is a snippet for the Run Script Phase
. Simply copy this snippet into the script phase text field:
sh "${BUILT_PRODUCTS_DIR}/${FRAMEWORKS_FOLDER_PATH}/WikitudeNativeSDK.framework/wikitude_bitcode.sh" -s -p "${BUILT_PRODUCTS_DIR}/${FRAMEWORKS_FOLDER_PATH}/WikitudeNativeSDK.framework"
