Hi everyone,

I am using podPublishReleaseXCFramework to build our library for iOS. I only want to build the framework for arm64, which is why I have declared only the iosArm64 target in build.gradle.kts.

My issue is that Gradle still runs compileKotlinIosSimulatorArm64. Is there any way to turn that off?

Hi Marc, can you share your build.gradle.kts file?

Hi Artem,

It’s not that easy since we have also moved some of our configuration into a custom plugin. But I have looked into the plugin, and it it turns out it was our fault: the plugin added iosX64 and iosSimulatorArm64 due to a bug on our end…

However, after I fixed that, another issue came up. When I only specify iosArm64, I get the following error:
“Could not determine the dependencies of task ‘:$PROJECT:linkPodReleaseFrameworkIosArm64’”

Could not resolve all dependencies for configuration ':$PROJECT:iosArm64CompileKlibraries'.
Consumable configurations with identical capabilities within a project (other than the default configuration) must have unique attributes, but configuration ':hero-core:main:podDebugFrameworkIosFat' and [configuration ':$PROJECT:podDebugFrameworkIosArm64'] contain identical attribute sets. Consider adding an additional attribute to one of the configurations to disambiguate them. Run the 'outgoingVariants' task for more details. See <https://docs.gradle.org/8.1.1/userguide/upgrading_version_7.html#unique_attribute_sets> for more details."

When I add iosX64, the error is gone, and the framework is created. Leaving out iosSimulatorArm64 works, by the way. It seems that I have to add iosX64 for podPublishReleaseXCFramework to succeed.

I have set kotlin.mpp.enableCInteropCommonization=true in gradle.properties btw

Adding a custom attribute did the trick. I just find it weird that this is only necessary when I do not specify the iosX64 target 🤷

Thanks a lot @a-dd 👍

hi @Marc Dietrichstein,

just wondering why only iosArm64 ? are newer devices only uses iosArm64 and no need to support rest ,

i was trying to speed up framework packaging,

ended up using this

./gradlew podPublishReleaseXCFramework -x iosX64Test -x linkPodReleaseFrameworkIosX64 -x linkPodReleaseFrameworkIosSimulatorArm64
