how to make static library link against frameworks needed automatically in xcode

Question

I have a static library base on MapKit.framework CoreLocation.framework etc.

I want to distribute the static library to other developers, to make it easy, I hope to find a method to eliminate the process of linking against frameworks in developers project.

I know there are some people achieve this.

简化SDK集成，一句代码集成友盟SDK([MobClick startWithAppkey:]),不再需要手动link framework

Answer 1

There is no way to do this as of Xcode 4.5.2. A static library cannot specify its dynamic library dependencies. Only a dynamic library can do that.
