I asked a similar question in the following thread https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/700817, I got the answer but I would like to enable the port my app with mac Catalyst but with template file. My project relies heavily on the pbxproj.template file and I would like to it via template instead of making changes in xcode
Initially I was able to run for iphone os targets but I made changes to existing template to include
SUPPORTS_MACCATALYST = YES; SUPPORTS_MAC_DESIGNED_FOR_IPHONE_IPAD = YES;
but that didn't help and I still get the error that it is unable to find the library in the location when I run for MacOS.
so I understand I need xcframework for MacOS specifically but can we do via the template?
