dsym file

Problem description: I have an Xcode workspace that references two Xcode projects. The first Xcode project (lib.xcodeproj) builds an iOS static library while the second project (app.xcodeproj) builds an iOS app that consumes the static library. app.xcodeproj references lib.xcodeproj, i.e. lib.xcodeproj is listed in app.xcodeprojs Link Binary With Libraries build phase. So, the setup is as follows: MyApp.xcworkspace t| t+-app.xcodeproj---+ t|tttttttt | Referenced via build phase t+-lib.xcodeproj <-+ If I open this workspace in Xcode and build an archive out of it (Productmenu -> Archive) everything compiles as expected and I end up with an .xcarchive. The same applies if I build via command line (xcodebuild archive -workspace MyApp.xcworkspace ...). However, dumping the content of the dSYM file that is generated as part of the archive reveals that it does not contain the debugging symbols of the static library (lib.xcodeproj). To be more specific, executing the command dwarfdump MyApp.xcarchived

trying to fix the seemingly common missing .dSYM file problem. problem started occurring in xcode11 or so maybe? i have DWARF with dSYM File set in build settings but am not getting a .dSYM file in the archive package to upload to app store connect. any ideas?

I have following framework binaries: Device.framework Device.dSYM Simulator_x86.framework Simulator_arm.framework I first create a fat binary from the 2 simulator files: lipo -create -output /Output/Simulator /Simulator/Simulator_x86.framework /Simulator/Simulator_arm.framework Then I use xcodebuild to create xcframework like this: xcodebuild -create-xcframework -framework /Input/Device.framework -debug-symbols /Input/Device.dSYM -framework /Output/Simulator -output Release/App.xcframework In the resultant xcframework, some time the dSYM directory gets copied to ios-arm64 directory and sometimes to ios-arm64_x86_64-simulator which clearly seems to be some bug.
