Re: [Mysql-cocoa-users] Problem compiling a Universal Binary

[Aaron J. <aj...@ed...>]

Well it's not going to be as easy as checking a box in Xcode, since  
libmysqlclient.a isn't built by an Xcode project.  Apple has a  
description of how to do it with a Makefile-based project, but I  
don't know if that applies to libraries or only programs.  I'll look  
into it when I have some time, but let us know if you figure it out.
