[jira] [Commented] (CB-4635) Binary source frameworks import with errors when they start with a lowercase letter

Gorkem ERCAN commented on CB-4635:
----------------------------------

lowercase also works for me.. I have actually reverted the changes on the AppBlade SDK Phonegap Plugin and tried the plugin was able to install and compile.

>          Components: Plugman
>    Affects Versions: 3.0.0
>         Environment: iOS, Mac OS 10.7.5, Xcode Version 4.6.3 (4H1503), plugman version 0.10.0, phonegap version 3.0.0-0.14.0.

> The [AppBlade SDK Phonegap Plugin|https://github.com/AppBlade/SDK-PhoneGap-Plugin/tree/phonegap_v3.0] uses libAppBladeUniversal.a as a binary file, which can be added to the Libraries of a native iOS target with no problems. From the plugin documentation, following the example, the proper way to declare the plugin in the plugin.xml would be  
>  {code:xml} 
>     <source-file src="src/ios/libAppBladeUniversal.a" framework="true"/>
>  {code} 
> and the proper way to import the plugin would be 
> plugman install --platform ios --plugin AppBlade-PhoneGap-Plugin-Directory/ --project Project-Directory/platforms/ios/
> However, doing so caused the following linker errors when building in Xcode:
>     ld: warning: directory not found for option '-L/Users/andrewtremblay/Development/Local Tests/PhoneGap Plugin Tests/Hello-AppBlade/platforms/ios/Hello-AppBlade/Plugins/com.appblade.cordova.plugin'
>     *ld: library not found for -lAppBladeUniversal*
> The "lib" was getting dropped somewhere and the framework flag was being pseudo-ignored (it was being added as both a compile source and a linked library in the build target). 
>  I reverted the plugin, capitalized the library (both the file and the declaration in the xml), and reran the command. It fixed the error.
>  {code:xml} 
> <source-file src="src/ios/LibAppBladeUniversal.a" framework="true"/>
>  {code} 
> I'm fine with that fix for now, but given that it's legal for an iOS developer to name their own binaries in lowercase (and case sensitivity in filesystems is a whole other can of worms), this should probably be considered a bug and investigated further.
