Building libjpeg-turbo for iOS

Requirements

• Xcode 10.0 or later. I use 10.2.1.
• libjpeg-turbo 1.*. I use 1.5.3, the build script cannot support version 2.0 or later.
• Homebrew, install other libraries. Run /usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)".
• automake 1.7 or later. Run brew install automake.
• autoconf 2.56 or later. It's automake configure script builder.
• libtool 1.4 or later. Run brew install libtool.
• NASM (if building x86 or x86-64 SIMD extensions). Run brew install nasm.

Usage

1. Run $ [sudo] chmod +x build.sh (if ./build.sh command not found).
2. Run $ ./build.sh.
3. You will find library in output directory.

FAQ

Architectures

Create architectures i386, x86_64, armv7, armv7s and arm64 by default. You can change ARCHS property which architecture you want in build.sh line 20.

Check SDK version

Support minimum for iOS is 8.0 by default. MIN_OS_VERSION property in build.sh(line 19).

Important

Check and set the SDK_VERSION available, otherwise cannot work.

eg: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS12.2.sdk
SDK_VERSION=12.2

Change libjpeg-turbo version

1. open build.sh, update TARGET_VERSION(line 9).
2. download libjpeg-turbo and copy to src directory.

Important

Cannot support libjpeg-turbo version 2.0 or later.

How to check library architectures

You can use lipo -info or file command check architectures.

eg:

$ file libjpeg.a
 
libjpeg.a: Mach-O universal binary with 5 architectures: [i386:current ar archive random library] [arm64]
libjpeg.a (for architecture i386):	current ar archive random library
libjpeg.a (for architecture armv7):	current ar archive random library
libjpeg.a (for architecture armv7s):current ar archive random library
libjpeg.a (for architecture x86_64):current ar archive random library
libjpeg.a (for architecture arm64):	current ar archive random library

$ lipo -info libturbojpeg.a 

Architectures in the fat file: libturbojpeg.a are: i386 armv7 armv7s x86_64 arm64
