Until downloading using git is fine, but when I tried to build the opencv I am getting the below error.

$user: OpenC cmc1$ python opencv/platforms/ios/build_framework.py ios

You have to use version 2.4.7. I have 2 apps in the App store that use opencv. They both were disabled by iOS9. You dont have to build anything for iOS. Download version 2.4.7, drag and drop into project. Make sure Copy Files box is checked. You also have to disable bitcode for it to work, since there is no bitcode in opencv. Even the new fix they claim works does not, I built it and nothing was in the iOS folder.

@sivakrishna209 , do you have cmake installed?

@jmbapps , can you please describe the problems with the bitcode in details? Did you try to use the official iOS release: http://sourceforge.net/projects/openc... ?

I have completed a test project in Xcode using opencv 3.1. El Capitan 10.11.3, Xcode 7.2. No Swift yet, but I believe it will work. Works fine with Obj C. You do not need to build anything for iOS. Just download the framework and add it your frameworks in Xcode. I did 'not' disable bitcode with this project.

I have tried using pre-built framework 2.4.13 for IOS and when added to my project , the project did not link. I guess I have not installed framework properly. What I did I have downloaded the 2.4.13 famework for IOS as a zip file. Extracted in my Downlods folder and then dragged to my Xcode projects. Where exactly should I put the extracted framework?

In Xcode. General tab for Target. Scroll to bottom...click + under Linked frameworks and Libraries. Do not add to binaries, this will cause an issue. Xcode automatically adds frameworks to binaries sometimes, delete is from binaries if Xcode adds it. Older versions seemed to work better if you click and drag project into Xcode, then make sure you click the 'copy files' checkbox. Why are you using such an old framework?

It worked, Thank you. Using 2.4.13 because I want to port a linux project which has been built with this version. I am told by by author that the project doesn't work with 3.1. I think that once I get into coding I will switch to new version. I an new with ocv and don't know 3.1 is backward compatible with code written for 2.4.

I have the same error. I'm new to using OpenCV, what it means disable bit code?

Under the 'Build Settings' tab. Find 'Build Options'. Enable Bitcode set to Yes or No.
