ios - Getting app containing framework containing OpenCV into TestFlight -

i find myself in situation may unique. please patient, because going complex.

i charged creating ios 1) sdk, has taken form of framework , 2) demo application, , 3) reference application.

the sdk uses opencv, , opencv framework automatically embedded inside it.

the project demo application @ compile time automatically builds sdk , includes copy within itself. demo application links directly copy of opencv within sdk.

the reference application example application meant show people how use sdk framework.

so far of somehow works. <take breath>

the latest version of demo application, however, has problem. need copy of testflight. despite working fine on actual iphones , xcode archiving no problems, nothing have done has gotten way through app store/testflight submission process. furthest i've managed coerce got through validation, when tried submitting app, after uploading xcode complained:

error itms-90034: "missing or invalid signature. bundle 'org.opencv' @ bundle path 'payload/fakename.app/frameworks/fakenameiossdk.framework/opencv2.framework' not signed using apple submission certificate."

i have indeed verified opencv (at least version 2.4.9 downloaded website opencv.org) not signed. made attempt sign opencv codesign, couldn't make work.

the question is: need change make app store happy enough can app testflight? there way hide lack of code-signing of opencv? there way opencv code-signed such app store happy it? (i have strange vision of compiling source of opencv directly sdk, size , complexity of opencv such i'd rather not try such thing except measure of last resort.)

alternatively, find myself wondering whether workable not embed opencv in sdk, embed within app instead. did last release of demo app in testflight. however, when created reference app, system failed work, leading current oddity of framework within framework.

thanks in advance can provide.
