Errors in Tesseract integration in iOS app

Question

I am getting some errors while integrating Tesseract SDK in my iOS app. The procedure I have followed -

1) Dragged "libtesseract_full.a" in xcode 2) Dragged "tessdata" folder in xcode 3) Dragged "baseapi.h" in xcode

Now when I am using Tesseract -

// init the tesseract engine.
tess = new TessBaseAPI();

tess->SimpleInit([dataPath cStringUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding],  // Path to tessdata-no ending /.
                 "eng",  // ISO 639-3 string or NULL.
                 false);

I am getting these below errors (I think there is some framework or something like that missing, but not getting what is missing, tesseract demo project is working fine on my system)

Any help would be appreciated.

Answer 1

刚刚将构建设置中的“C ++标准库”更改为“libstdc ++（GNU C ++标准库）”，错误消失了......感谢@ H2CO3提示。

Answer 2

There are several issues:

Firstly ensure the file containing the code:

tess = new TessBaseAPI();
tess->SimpleInit(...);

has a file extension of .mm (Objective-C++) as it uses both Objective-C and C++.

Secondly the library looks like it hasn't been compiled for armv7 , so you will need to rebuild it for any architectures you want to support, which will be one or more of armv6 , armv7 , armv7s and i386 (for the iPhone Simulator).

If you are targeting iOS 5.0+ then that will be all of the above apart from armv6 which isn't supported on later versions of Xcode.

Thirdly, make sure you use the same version of C++ and C++ library in both the library and the app, otherwise bad things will happen.

Answer 3

Make sure:

C++ Language Dialect Set "Compiler Default" instead of "GNU++11[-std=gnu++11]"

C++ Standard Library Set "Compiler Default" instead of "libc++(LLVM C++ standard library with C++11 support)"

Also check:

C Language Dialect Set "C00 [-std=c99]" instead of "GNU00 [-std=gnu99]"

and tesseract files should be referenced properly. (drag and drop files not reference properly)

Answer 4

ld: -weak_library and -bitcode_bundle (Xcode setting ENABLE_BITCODE=YES) cannot be used together
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

1. Change Project -> Project -> Build Settings -> **"Enable Bitcode" to NO

2. also remove all linker flags in "linking" -> "Other Linker Flags" and add this

3. After that install pods by command "pod install"

It's works for me on Swift 2 and Xcode 7.2 (beta)
