I’m having same difficulties. UI gets confused and tries to build iOS version as i386 etc. Quitting and relaunching sometimes fixes it etc. very annoying!

You can still perform all the steps manually, switching to sim when building the sim library.

I’m having trouble creating the Simulator target– because Xcode 3.2.5 has different GUI than the version used in your instructions. I right-click the ‘DTUtilities Sim’ target, choose Get Info, and attempt to change Base SDK to ‘iPhone Simulator’. But that choice is no longer available. My only choices are ‘iOS 4.2′ or ‘Latest iOS (currently set to iOS 4.2)’.

I’m having the same issue with the merge step as the previous poster. The merge fails with Xcode 3.2.5 because Xcode’s GUI has changed. There is no longer a way to choose ‘Use Base SDK’.

Any suggestions?

Thanks for the guide man. This worked great prior to iOS SDK 4.0. For some reason now the merge step is broken. The lipo script fails because Xcode won’t build each of the targets separately then combine them. I have to manually change the base sdk to use (dev or sim) and then change random settings to get it to work, then I am able to run a Merge on them. I tried looking into it, and it seems that you can no longer select ‘Use Base SDK’ as the target, which could be the problem. Am I missing something, or is that just it?
