CocoaPods didn’t use to be flexible enough to build our project (which is pretty complex.) It probably is now, but no one’s put the work into trying it. Also, our build team prefers binary downloads so that they can build and qualify the binaries and we know exactly what customers are using. In the near future, whenever we can drop support for iOS 7, we’ll probably switch to only having a dynamic framework. The whole static-framework approach was just to work around iOS apps’ inability to load dynamic libraries. —Jens -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Couchbase Mobile" group.
