xcode 5 compile for arm64 iPhone failed

Question

I am now building a C++ library for iPhone with xcode 5. When I build the architecture "armv7","armv7s" and "i386", everything is fine. But when I want to build for the architecture of "arm64", I have:

 C++ Compiler:                CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER-NOTFOUND  (ver 5.1.0)

It seems that it cannot find the c++compiler. By the way, I am now using cmake toolchain to build the library, and more detailed error messages are as follows:

-- Setting up iPhoneOS toolchain
-- iPhoneOS toolchain loaded
-- The CXX compiler identification is Clang 5.1.0
-- The C compiler identification is Clang 5.1.0 
CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH=/lib;/usr/lib

Any ideas? Thanks.

How are you setting the target architectures? If you specify them in CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS, try using CMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES instead.

Any reason to not use Xcode 6 and CMake 3+?
