Xcode build error - dylib failure

[teeolendo]

I'm using the RNPLS version 6.0.3, and when I run the application on my device, I get a persistent build error. It builds fine on the simulator but it doesn't build when I run it on my device or when I set it to a generic ios device.

ld: building for iOS, but linking in dylib file (/Users/********/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/projectname-fwcxydociljoyzfueniqbwswsbyy/Build/Products/Release-iphoneos/LinkKit.framework/LinkKit) built for iOS Simulator, file '/Users/*********/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/projectname-fwcxydociljoyzfueniqbwswsbyy/Build/Products/Release-iphoneos/LinkKit.framework/LinkKit' for architecture arm64

I've followed the instructions here

This is a screenshot of my .xcodeproj setup. pod project looks pretty much the same

my co-worker @elingersin1 and I spent the day digging and discovered that the by switching the order of the entries within the ./Pods/Plaid/LinkKit.xcframework/Info.plist file, so that the entry for ios-arm64 comes before the entry for ios-arm64_x86_64-simulator, followed by re-running pod install will correctly generate the Pods-<Project>-artifacts.sh file which is being run during the [CP] Prepare Artifacts build phase, so that the correct LinkKit.framework is being installed when compiling the project.

The resulting Info.plist should look like this:

Running into same issue. With a m1 MacBook Pro.

怎么解决呢

[Liamandrew]

Very frustrating issue, especially when there's not much support on how to fix it. Eventually I upgraded to the latest cocoapods version (1.10.0) & did pod install and this fixed the issue for me without needing to modify the Info.plist like above.

[lukaskai]

Yes, upgrading cocoapods version to 1.10.0 helped.

[afh]

Thanks, for the report @Liamandrew, @lukaskai.

@teeolendo can you confirm that updating CocoaPods 1.10.0 resolves the issue for you too and close this issue?

[agoldis]

Updated cocoapods to 1.10.1 - still facing the issue

[afh]

@agoldis Can you check if the Xcode Build Setting VALIDATE_WORKSPACE is set to NO, set it accordingly if it isn't and retry, please?

[agoldis]

@afh I did, still no luck - I am seeing the next message:

Trying to run on a iOS 14.2 physical device, also unsuccessfully tried Info.plist trick

Xcode version 12.3 (12C33)
Cocoapods version 1.10.1
react-native-plaid-link-sdk 6.0.4
react-native 0.61.3

[agoldis]

Fixed by switching to new build system and manually dragging LinkKit into embedded frameworks
