Parse.com SDK v1.2.20 won't compile for ARM64bit architecture

Question

I followed the quick start tutorial and solved issues with the Facebook SDK being required (Even though I'm not using Facebook), but for some reason even though I'm using a version of the Parse SDK that should be compatible for 64bit architectures I am receiving errors stating that it can't compile for my iPhone 5S's 64bit architecture...

Undefined symbols for architecture arm64:
  "_OBJC_CLASS_$_PFAnalytics", referenced from:
      objc-class-ref in AppDelegate.o
  "_OBJC_CLASS_$_Parse", referenced from:
      objc-class-ref in AppDelegate.o
ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture arm64
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

The code it crashes on is when I just set up the Parse object and analytics:

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions {
    [Parse setApplicationId:@"MyAppID"
                  clientKey:@"MyClientID"];
    [PFAnalytics trackAppOpenedWithLaunchOptions:launchOptions];
    return YES;
}

My Other Linker Flags includes -ObjC and my Standard Architectures & Valid Architectures both include arm64, armv7s, & armv7

Answer 1

The solution was to remove the -ObjC linker flag and the Facebook SDK. This lead to an error with another 3rd party framework I was using which required the -ObjC linker flag, but @Fosco suggested I force load the framework I needed using the -force_load path/to/framework flag which solved all my problems.

Answer 2

You did not imported all the frameworks that is needed to use the Parse SDK.

**AudioToolbox.framework

CFNetwork.framework

CoreGraphics.framework

CoreLocation.framework

libz.dylib

MobileCoreServices.framework

QuartzCore.framework

Security.framework

StoreKit.framework

SystemConfiguration.framework**

And you need to make sure that you market the COPY option when moved the PARSE SDK into your framework

Answer 3

Adding Bolts.framework that comes with Parse frameworks to the project solved the problem for me. Hope this helps
