Hi All

I have added a dynamic library in my project which si build for the correct architecture and gets signed. The dylib is copied to the framework folder of the app in the xachive.

The app works fine on emulator and my physical device. But unfortunately when I try to publish the app to app store I get an error that the libswiftcore.dylib is at the wrong location . I know this is now because of the libswiftcore library because the app gets accepted if i remove my third party (it does not work because of my dynamic library being missing.).

I am stuck with this problem for last three weeks whcih is delaying our app release we are a small start up any help will be highly apreciated

The app works fine on emulator [simulator] and my physical device.

This suggests you’re targeting iOS. If so, be aware that iOS does not support ‘naked’ third-party dynamic libraries (.dylib). You can ship dynamic libraries embedded in your app but they must be wrapped in a framework [1].

[1] The only exception here is the Swift runtime libraries, but technically they are not third party (-:
