问题
I need to create an application for the iPhone that will connect to a PostgreSQL 8.4 database using libpq. The problem is I can't get a simple iPhone that links to libpq to compile. I am however able to get the equivalent application that is a regular Mac desktop app to compile and connect to PostgreSQL without any issues. I'm on Xcode 3.2 running on Snow Leopard.
I'm building libpq for both arm and for x86_84. The arm build is for the real iPhone and the x86_64 is for the iPhone simulator to use. I then create a fat binary that contains both files and end up with a file named libpq. This file is the one I use in the regular Mac app and it works fine and causes issues when trying to build the iPhone app.
Here is my build script when I build libpq.
#!/bin/bash
DEVROOT=/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer
SDKROOT=$DEVROOT/SDKs/iPhoneOS3.0.sdk
rm -rf /Users/bob/mylibs
mkdir /Users/bob/mylibs #Store there compiled libs
make clean
#Build ARM library
./configure --host=arm-apple-darwin --without-readline --disable-ipv6 CC=$DEVROOT/usr/bin/arm-apple-darwin9-gcc-4.0.1 CPPFLAGS="-I$SDKROOT/usr/lib/gcc/arm-apple-darwin9/4.0.1/include/ -I$SDKROOT/usr/include/" CFLAGS="$CPPFLAGS -arch armv6 -pipe -no-cpp-precomp -isysroot $SDKROOT" CPP="$DEVROOT/usr/bin/cpp $CPPFLAGS" LD=$DEVROOT/usr/bin/ld
make -C src/interfaces/libpq
cp /Users/bob/Downloads/postgresql-8.4.1/src/interfaces/libpq/libpq.a /Users/bob/mylibs/libpq.arm
#Then build i386 library
make clean && ./configure && make -C src/interfaces/libpq
cp src/interfaces/libpq/libpq.a /Users/bob/mylibs/libpq.i386
#Then make fat binary
$DEVROOT/usr/bin/lipo -arch armv6 /Users/bob/mylibs/libpq.arm -arch x86_64 /Users/bob/mylibs/libpq.i386 -create -output /Users/bob/mylibs/libpq
Here is the build log when I try to compile the iPhone app from within Xcode.

Anyone else run into this that can help out?

回答1:
It looks like you are not actually linking in the library. You have added the directory it is in to your search path, but I don't see -lpq anywhere on your link line.
Also, the simulator environment is 32 bit only, x86_64 libs won't work with simulator binaries.

Ok got around the issue thanks from the comment by Louis. I did this by changing makefile line that built the i386 version. I added CFLAGS=-arch i386" to look like this
#Then build i386 library
make clean && ./configure CFLAGS="-arch i386" && make -C src/interfaces/libpq
I now have another issue that I will post a new question to an reference this link.

You can try using PGSQLKit for iOS from http://www.postgresqlformac.com
