Duplicate symbol _AsyncSocketException in libFrank.a(AsyncSocket.o) about frank HOT 6 CLOSED

Hey,

Yes, this is an annoying issue. It was discussed on this thread, including a moderately rant post from me about the state of package management in the iOS dev community.

I would happily accept a patch which pulls out cocoahttpserver and cocoaasyncsocket as distinct static libraries. That way someone who is already using cocoaasyncsocket could just not link in that library in their Frank target.

Thanks, Pete. For my purposes, I'm assuming that deleting the "cocoahttpserver" folder under "3rd Party" in "Frank.xcodeproj" will solve my problem. However, I'm not well versed in gem packaging. How would I create a new gem that I can install locally? Any help or links to tutorials will be greatly appreciated!

You should be able to just build the Frank project in xcode, and then copy the libFrank.a that is produced over the one you're currently linking into your project.

Hi Pete. Thanks for your help. Unfortunately, I'm still not able to build my project with Frank. Now, I'm getting this error:

ignoring file Frank/libFrank.a, file was built for archive which is not the architecture being linked (i386)
Undefined symbols for architecture i386:
"OBJC_CLASS$_SelectorEngineRegistry", referenced from:
objc-class-ref in libShelley.a(SYFrankSelectorEngine.o)
ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture i386

Here is what I did:

1. Clone the Frank repo on my Mac
2. Open the Frank Xcode project
3. Delete all files in the cocoahttpserver folder except for HTTPConnection.h, HTTPResponse.h, HTTPServer.h
4. Build. This generates libFrank.a in ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/Frank-[blahblah]/Build/Products/Debug-iphoneos/
5. Run frank-skeleton in my project's root
6. Replace libFrank.a in the Frank folder that was generated by frank-skeleton with the one from step 4
7. Continue the Frank installation per the instructions on testingwithfrank.com
8. Build: I get an i386 error
9. Go back to the Frank Xcode project and add 2 entries under Debug and Release under Architectures in Build Settings: Any SDK set to Standard (armv7), and Any iOS Simulator SDK set to i386 (which is what I have in my project's build settings)
10. Build again and repeat steps 6-8. I still get the i386 error. What am I doing wrong? How can I fix this?

Thanks!

I finally figured it out! I had to build the Frank Xcode project for the Simulator target, not iOS Device! Now, I am able to successfully build my project with Frank, and launch the app in the Simulator. However, http://localhost:37265/ is not working. I tried Chrome (oops, this link appears to be broken), Firefox (blank page, 404 in console), and Safari (blank page).

Do you see debug output along the lines of

Injecting Frank loader
Creating the server: <HTTPServer: 0xbca7270>
Started HTTP server on port 37265

in your Frankified app's console log during startup? If not then that means the frank server is probably not being linked into your app correctly. Do you have the --all_load and -ObjC linker flags set?
