Export entitlements.plist from the app using the codesign utility
codesign -d --entitlements :entitlements.plist /path/to/.app/
Using above mentioned command doing signing of iOS application but during command run getting warning as below
Warning: Specifying ':' in the path is deprecated and will not work in a future release
Instead using ":" which argument to use to not see above mentioned warning
XCode version used : 13.2
This was a deliberate change brought about by the switch to DER entitlements [1]. You now have two choices. To export a textual representation of the DER entitlements, just leave off the colon:
% codesign -d --entitlements - …
To export in the legacy XML format, specify the --xml flag:
% codesign -d --entitlements - --xml …

**Hello,
command we are using here
codesign -d --entitlements :entitlements.plist /path/to/.app/
when ":" is removed and command used as
codesign -d --entitlements - entitlements.plist /path/to/.app/ or codesign -d --entitlements - --xml entitlements.plist /path/to/.app/
It raises error as Entitlements.plist: No such file or directory
Please suggest argument that should be passed here**
You tried two commands. The first one:
codesign -d --entitlements - entitlements.plist /path/to/.app/
fails because you’re specifying both - and entitlements.plist. The argument after --entitlements tell it where to write the result. A value of - means stdout. You can’t then supply a second value of entitlements.plist.
The second one:
codesign -d --entitlements - --xml entitlements.plist /path/to/.app/
fails for similar reasons, although in this case you’ve also inserted an independent option, --xml, between --entitlements and its argument.
I recommend that you have a read through the codesign man page. Also, the above is pretty standard Unix command line stuff. If that’s foreign to you, you might want to look for a tutorial on the Unix shell. If you enter unix shell tutorial into your search engine of choice, it’ll bring up a bunch of good options.
Share and Enjoy
