I’m struggling with cocos2d-x v4 for iOS game developing.
I’m using Xcode 12.1.
I created cocos2d-x project like below.
cocos new TestGame -p com.example.testgame -l cpp -d /ProjectDir
Then, I created a Xcode project like below.
cd /ProjectDir/TestGame
mkdir ios-build
cd ios-build/
cmake .. -GXcode -DCMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME=iOS -DCMAKE_OSX_SYSROOT=iphoneos
Then, open the Xcode project and build it to run on my device, the cocos2d-x v4 project run perfectly.
Next, I run this project on simulator, the cocos2d-x v4 project run perfectly.
But, when I run the project again on my device, the build fails.
It shows many warnings like below.

and show many errors like below (This is one example of many errors.)
Undefined symbols for architecture arm64:
"_OBJC_CLASS_$_CCEAGLView", referenced from:
objc-class-ref in RootViewController.o
"cocos2d::GLViewImpl::_multisamplingCount", referenced from:
-[RootViewController loadView] in RootViewController.o
"cocos2d::Application::getInstance()", referenced from:
Why these static libraries not generated properly? And how to fix it?
If I clean the build files, and run again on the device, It’s OK, but It takes too much time, so I want to know other realistic way.
Next, I thought about releasing the App.
To release the app, I set “Build Active Architecture Only” from “Yes” to “No” in Build Settings.
Then I run the project on my device.
Similar warning appeared.

Why these static library only contains one architecture?
And How to solve it for archive build?
I’m really confusing. I want to release cocos2d-x v4 games.
Please help.
Thank you.
