Distribution of Dynamic Framework with Simulator Slice

Hello,


We are making some framewroks for distribution, until now it was only static libraries, but we jumped the wagon to the hopefully more user-friendly Dynamic Frameworks.


It seems there is a bug (or is it a feature?) preventing users from submitting their apps to the app store because they contain the Simulator Slice (which isn't stripped correctly in certain versions of Xcode, fixed in later 6 versions and back in the 7th again).


Our users vary from large firms developers to small beginners, so we can't expect them to handle stripping these slices, and it negates any user-friendliness to provide them with two frameworks (one for simulators and one for devices).


Is there any easier way to deploy dynamic frameworks?


I've seen some bigger companies (Twitter, Facebook, etc) seemingly having perfectly functionning dynamic frameworks, what would be the secret?


Thank you.

Thanksgiving holiday is over, any luck of an Admin or Apple insider seeing/answering this crutial question for our business?

Apple developers do occasionally contribute to these forums. However, if this is a critical question for you, I suggest you open a Developer Technical Support issue directly with them for a faster definitive answer.

Did you ever get an answer? Would love to know what the solution to this strange problem.

I'm seeing this issue in XCode 8 as well 😟
