XCode 4.3 - Build error “missing required architecture armv7”

Question

After upgrade XCode from 4.2 to 4.3 I\'ve got below problem. I can\'t build it. Do you guys have idea how can I resolve this problem? even some clue would be helpful to me.<

Answer 1

I believe this bug is now fixed in Xcode 4.4.1

Answer 2

Looks like this was either an accidental (or on purpose) omission on Apple's part.

If (and only if) you are a registered Apple Developer, you can log into the Apple Developer Forums and if you copy this linked search query into your browser address bar, you will see other people have had the same problem.

For now, it looks like you can only use SenTestingKit on the simulator.

Answer 3

I just upgraded to 4.3.1 There is a problem with SenTestingKit framework. I removed the test source code from the project, it builds ok. And it can run on 5.1 device. But I got _dyld_dyld_start error when I ran it on simulator. I had to remove SenTestingKit from the project to make it work on simulator.

Answer 4

Using xcode 4.6 and trying to add facebook SDK 3.1 I had this problem because I didn't select to add the files to my test target.

You should check both targets when you copy the framework.

Answer 5

I had a similar issue with Xcode 4.4. My solution path: Removed SetTestingKit.framework from the main target's (the system under test) "link binary with libraries", leaving it in the test target as is. Not sure why it ended up there in the first place.

Answer 6

I was getting the same linking error for the Simulator after upgrading from Xcode 4.2 -> 4.3.1. I noticed that new projects in 4.3.1 do work with Unit Tests, so just compared the project differences.

What fixed it for me was:-

1. Select Project in project navigator
2. Select Test Target
3. Select Build Settings
4. Go down to Framework Search Paths and single-click it
5. Delete whatever is there
6. Enter $(SDKROOT)/Developer/Library/Frameworks $(DEVELOPER_LIBRARY_DIR)/Frameworks
7. If you had any custom frameworks, add those back

Actually, Unit Tests run fine on the Device, too.
