Using multiple frameworks gives clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1

Question

Like I'm saying.. I'm using two frameworks, FlashIz and MWPhotoBrowser. (Actually I'm using more, but they don't give errors..)

When building the project, I got errors like this:

ld: 29 duplicate symbols for architecture armv7
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

So, I derived from this error that those two frameworks are using the same 'frameworks' like MBProgressHUD. So I thought of removing 1 of those? But I don't know how.. Is there anyone who had a similar problem? The problem is, I can't seem to find this files?

Answer 1

Problem here is duplication. MBProgressHUD have added twice(from libMWPhotoBrowser.a and FlashizEmbeddedLibrary)

So Remove from any one of those libs.

Answer 2

It is showing that it was due to duplicate symbol. In your project there are multiple classes of MBProgressHUD. Please use only one class and remove other. This will resolve your problem,
