Re: strip: warning : Output file cannot represent architectureUNKNOWN

Thanks for your response. I am explicitly setting strip to xscale_be-strip.
But Make warns in different files each time.
and the warning is strip: warning : Output file cannot represent
architecture UNKNOWN.
Is there any place I need to check while doing Make?
