How can i Linking the Protocol Buffer(C++) into the Xcode

I added the protobuf class "xxx.pb.h","xxx.pb.cc" in Project. I added a path"/usr/local/include" in Header Search Paths, and added a path"/usr/local/lib" in Library Search Paths.

Now I encountered a problem, The following error at Build:

ld: warning: ignoring file /usr/local/lib/libprotobuf.dylib, file was built for unsupported file format ( 0xcf 0xfa 0xed 0xfe 0x 7 0x 0 0x 0 0x 1 0x 3 0x 0 0x 0 0x 0 0x 6 0x 0 0x 0 0x 0 ) which is not the architecture being linked (i386): /usr/local/lib/libprotobuf.dylib

... ...

NOTE: a missing vtable usually means the first non-inline virtual member function has no definition.

Follow the steps mentioned in this answer -> https://stackoverflow.com/a/10279656/1383704

There are a few pitfalls here and there, for which you may check my own answer for the same qn.

These were the steps I followed differently

  1. instead of giving header search path till google directory, i gave the search path till the "src/" directory

  2. In whichever you import your xxx.pb.h you have to rename the .m to .mm

In Xcode 4.5 i was still getting some linker errors :

symbols not found for architecture i386

Because of this I wasn't able to run on simulator. But the code will run on actual device.
