I'm trying to export my
UIDocument
subclass with a UIDocumentPickerViewController
. The subclass writes data to a FileWrapper
and its UTI conforms to com.apple.package
.But the presented document picker shows "Documents in iCloud Drive are not available because the iCloud Drive setting is disabled."
The document is successfully written to the cache, as I can see from the exported container package.
When I change the document subclass and custom UTI to conform to a single file (e.g.
public.plain-text
), the document picker works fine and I can export the file. So the problem seems to be with the Document Type or Exported UTI.Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug?
