iphone - merge static libraries into single

Question

How to merge the static libraries into single one?

I do have three static libraries libSignatureLibary_armv6.a , libSignatureLibary_armv7.a and libSignatureLibary_i368.a

Now i want to merge this three file into one single library which may be named has libSignatureLibary.a

While Googling I found lipo which is open source tool!

Do i need to run any extra scripting language to merge

or in terminal lipo and pass the parameter for the lipo.

Can any on advice me to build the common library for these three.

@thanks in advance Kiran

Open terminal and go to folder with your libs. Then use command:

lipo -create libSignatureLibary_armv6.a libSignatureLibary_armv7.a libSignatureLibary_i368.a -output libSignatureLibary.a
