Xcode 6.3.2
Can anyone tell me any sane reason why when Xcode validates an app prior to submission to the app store that it DOES NOT check to see if the binaries are 64 bit compatible?
I've run our app through validation regularly over the past few months and it passes all checks.
We go to submit our app to the store today, run it through validation again, then submit and of course, some binaries that haven't been updated since 2012 are only built for armv7 and aren't built for arm64.
If 64 bit compatibility is critical to submitting an app to the App Store, then how in the name of all that is holy IS THIS CHECK NOT DONE WITHIN VALIDATION?
lipo LETS YOU DO THIS!
If arm64 bit support is critical to submitting an app to the app store and Xcode lets you validate and submit the app and someone is regularly validating the app, then why should any app developer find out AT THE LAST MINUTE that their app violates the rules for submission even AFTER it has passed regular validation?
How, in good conscience, is this NOT DONE?
For months, we've been regularly running validation to make sure our app is ready to submit and passes all tests within Xcode.
Months.
Holy hell.
How to lose a few hundred thousand dollars in one day.
Awesome. Just awesome.
