getting started with ios

Oh, another day of my learning curve to get taglib working in an iOS app.

Ferenc,
Thank you for your suggestion. I found his 3 year old OSX project and xCode had of errors about garbage collection.

I have a project that is using a previously compiled version of taglib for a Mac app.  I am trying to learn how to compile taglib specifically for iOS and armv7, not for i386 or x86_64.

In my hours of research I have come across a few remarks for compiling for OSX, but nothing really is out there for iOS.  I am so new to cmake that it seems like there is a lot of tribal knowledge that is assumed with most projects being posted online that use taglib.

Can anyone suggest a method for getting taglib to work on IOS?

I have taglib-1.9.1 downloaded and I have tried several ways of compiling it for IOS.  I have tried creating a toolchain file and running that and just cmake commands like the one below.  Xcode keeps complaining that my files are not comiled for armv7, but for i386.  

I feel like I am close to a solution, but I am missing the correct commands for compiling to IOS.

Any suggestions or examples that anyone has had success with (for iOS)?

Mac OS X
--------

On Mac OS X, you might want to build a framework that can be easily integrated
into your application. If you set the BUILD_FRAMEWORK option on, it will compile
TagLib as a framework. For example, the following command can be used to build
an Universal Binary framework with Mac OS X 10.4 as the deployment target:

  cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
    -DBUILD_FRAMEWORK=ON \
    -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=/usr/bin/gcc-4.0 \
    -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=/usr/bin/c++-4.0 \
    -DCMAKE_OSX_SYSROOT=/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk/ \
    -DCMAKE_OSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.4 \
    -DCMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES="ppc;i386;x86_64"


Thanks!
Christopher
