ld: library not found for -lGoogleToolboxForMac

Question

I am implementing firebase setup via pods.

My Pods file looks like following one.

# Uncomment the next line to define a global platform for your project
platform :ios, '8.0'
# $(PROJECT_DIR)/build/Debug-iphoneos/GoogleToolboxForMac lib search path
target 'ProductName' do
  # Uncomment the next line if you're using Swift or would like to use dynamic frameworks
  # use_frameworks!

  # Pods for mCura

pod 'Firebase/Core'
pod 'Firebase/Messaging'

end

Everything is fine with iPad simulator. its running but when I run my application in iDevice. It shows library not found.

ld: library not found for -lGoogleToolboxForMac
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

I have already wasted 2 days for removing this error & tried everything I could find on net. And GoogleToolboxForMac library automatically installs when firebase pod get installed.

Answer 1

I change my pod file to following code and re-install pod. It installed all necessary files for GoogleToolboxForMac.

# Uncomment the next line to define a global platform for your project
platform :ios, '9.0'
target 'ProductName' do

  # Uncomment the next line if you're using Swift or would like to use dynamic frameworks
  # use_frameworks!

pod 'Firebase/Core'
pod 'Firebase/Messaging'
pod 'GoogleToolboxForMac', '~> 2.1'

end

After Installing pod

1) Change Scheme to Generic iOS Device and Build.

2) After build success you can see libGoogleToolboxForMac.a file in black colour instead of red.

3) Now select Device and run build on iDevice. Follow screenshot.

Or you can have build library libGoogleToolboxForMac.a
