Generate simulator build

facebook-ios-sdk, ios, xcode

Solution

I had the same problem. Since you're working with a workspace file with pods you need to run the following in Terminal:

xcodebuild -workspace {project name}.xcworkspace -scheme {project name}  -arch i386 -sdk iphonesimulator7.1

The FB instructions say the .app file should be in: {base directory}/build/Release-iphonesimulator/{projectname}.app

In my case it ended up in /Developer/Derived Data/{project name}-{long string of random letters}/Build/Products/Debug-iphonesimulator

Problem

I am working on an app that needs data from a Facebook app. Facebook want a release simulator build. I have followed FB's instruction to the letter but when i try to build the simulator package `xcodebuild -arch i386 -sdk iphonesimulator7.1` i get the following error: ``` ld: library not found for -lPods clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation) ** BUILD FAILED ** The following build commands failed: Ld build/Release-iphonesimulator/Olabord.app/Olabord normal i386 (1 failure) ``` I suspect that it has to do with cocoa pods but i don't know how to deal with it. I desperately need guidance or a workaround...!
