But I still think it is related to Xcode because Xcode allows me to set
the "Strip Style" for Cocoa Touch frameworks to "All Symbols" but when
doing so stripping always fails. So I think Xcode probably does something
wrong here. It could be a bug in Xcode after all. There surely must
be somebody here who had this problem before... I can't be the only one
who is very concerned about what ends up in the final executable that
is distributed.
Just stripping debugging symbols as Xcode proposes by the way of its
default build configuration for Cocoa Touch frameworks is definitely
*not* an option!
Proper stripping for dylibs is definitely possible. I build my dylibs
for macOS without Xcode and they're properly stripped. But so far I
haven't been successful with properly stripping Cocoa Touch frameworks
because "strip" always fails when setting "Strip Style" to "All Symbols"
so I think this is more of an Xcode issue than an issue of the GCC
toolchain. That's why I'm asking here first...
