phonegap cordova xcode link failed when build to 64bit

Question

i have a cordova project in xcode 5.0.2 it works perfectly on a iphone5c but didnt work on iphone5s i read some on this and thought that the problem is i have to build my project on 64bit architecture.
i make this build settings:
architecture - standart architecture (including 64-bit)(armv7, armv7s, arm64)
build active architecture only - no

and when i build i get this errors:

ld: warning: ignoring file /Users/chana/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/Pitaron-    echagbyhunbeprbdfodckoblgtuq/Build/Products/Debug-iphonesimulator/libCordova.a, file was built for archive  which is not the architecture being linked (x86_64):  /Users/chana/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/Pitaron-echagbyhunbeprbdfodckoblgtuq/Build/Products/Debug- iphonesimulator/libCordova.a

ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

any body knows what to do?
thanks a lot.

Answer 1

The problem is with Xcode 5.1 coming with 64 bit support.

The cordova project created contains cordova library (‘CordovaLib.xcodeproj’ project in the project navigator pane) which is not configured for arm64.

To resolve this issue, click on ‘CordovaLib.xcodeproj’ where it shows project settings goto ‘Architectures’ and table and change all architectures to ‘$(ARCHS_STANDARD)’ or Standard Architectures. (They have been initially set to different values which is the reason for build failing)

Answer 2

The problem seems to be that your version of libCordova isn't compiled for arm64.

The quick fix is to remove arm64 from your list of build architectures - the 5s will happily run code compiled for armv7.

The proper fix is to upgrade Cordova to a version that has arm64 versions of the libraries compiled.
