using third party iOS library?  
News Group: embarcadero.public.delphi.platformspecific.ios

Hi,

I have the *.a files and the *.h files for a third party library for iOS.
When I open Xcode with a sample app, using that library, I  notice that the three *.a files are under SystemConfiguration.framework.

Does this mean I include SystemConfiguration framework in XE6?

I understand that the header files need to be converted to ObjectPascal files.
But how will XE6 know where to look for the library?

Anybody successfully using third party iOS libraries?

Joe

We're using two different .a files in our project since XE5.

Here's how you do it with OpenSSL:

The .a files actually get compiled into the binary. Just put them in your Delphi project directory.

Here is a second example of a static lib file in use:
