With IOS6, Apple released Xcode 4.5. This version of Xcode does not generate armv6 binaries anymore and therefore cannot be used with WINDEV MOBILE.
Xcode versions compatible with WINDEV MOBILE are 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 and 4.4.
If you attempt to compile a WINDEV MOBILE project with version 4.5, you will get this error :
no architecture to compile for (ARCHS=armv6 , VALID_ARCHS=armv7)
However you will need a “Xcode 4.5 installed” in order to test your application with an IOS6 device and this is not a contradiction with the previous statements.
Explanation : in order to test with a IOS6 device, you have to keep xCode 4.4 and to install xCode 4.5 – do not upgrade xCode 4.4 ! It’s mandatarory to keep both versions.
In details :
- make sure iTunes 10.7 is installed
- make a copy of your current xCode 4.4
- install xCode 4.5 (this will also install the SDK required for IOS6)
- start xCode 4.4 (it will detect the new SDK)
Now you can build WINDEV MOBILE 17 applications and test them with an IOS6 device.
