How to compile the library libblst.a for iOS platform

[skibinalexander]

Hello, we need to compile your library for ios platform. We tried many ways, we do not understand how to do it. We would be grateful if you could explain. As I understand it, you need to compile under arm64

[dot-asm]

blst/build.sh 'CC="xcrun -sdk iphoneos cc -arch arm64"'

@dot-asm Thank you, I success managed to compile for the device, but for some reason error for the simulator, the compiler. May be do have a some idea, for fix this problem?

Accept command:

./build.sh 'CC="xcrun -sdk iphonesimulator cc -arch arm64"'

But now I need the need to have the possibility in one file for both the device and the simulator, any ideas?

Here is the secret. My experience with iOS is relatively limited, and non-existent with simulator. I've managed to test the Rust build on an iPad at an earlier point, so I know it works in principle. Then I simply recognized that spaces in arguments to build.sh don't work as intuitively expected, for example as build.sh CFLAGS="-arch arm64" and figured how to make them, spaces, work. That is all, I have nothing left to give. I see no reason for why you can't figure out the rest by yourself.
