I’m getting this error when I use the gradle command assembleXCFramework

error: the path does not point to a valid framework: /Users/jeantuffier/Repos/Entur/Tavla/CommonTavla/build/common_tavlaXCFrameworkTemp/fatframework/debug/iosSimulator/common_tavla.framework

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':assembleCommon-tavlaDebugXCFramework'.
> Process 'command 'xcodebuild'' finished with non-zero exit value 70

any ideas how I can fix that?

The documentation says there are 3 gradle commands related to XC framework
• assembleXCFramework
• assembleDebugXCFramework
• assembleReleaseXCFramework
But I get Task 'assembleDebugXCFramework' not found in root project 'common-tavla'.

1. Just guessing: Looks like you are trying to assemble XCFramework without XCode properly configured on your machine. Please make sure you are using latest XCode version and all required iOS simulators are installed (usually it happends after the first launch) https://stackoverflow.com/questions/54515763/cant-build-project-on-ios-error-code-70-how-to-fix-it
2. try to run ./gradlew tasks to verify if task you mentioned exists

1. I have XCode up and running, no issues with using the simulator (iphone 15 pro)
2. I found the task but they have a different naming pattern : assemble[PROJECT_NAME]DebugXCFramework

[jean]

My project is actually a multiplatform library, so I’m not sure why xcodebuild is used. And running xcodebuild from the xcode project consuming the library, I don’t get any error

[jean]

Running assembleXCFramework from the command line with --stacktrace gave me this

w: Name of XCFramework 'common-tavla' differs from inner frameworks name 'CommonTavla'! Framework renaming is not supported yet

error: the path does not point to a valid framework: /Users/jeantuffier/Repos/Entur/Tavla/CommonTavla/build/common_tavlaXCFrameworkTemp/fatframework/debug/iosSimulator/common_tavla.framework

It seems like the error came from the difference between the root name of the project and the name used for the ios binaries. By naming the root project CommonTavla I don’t get the error anymore

Hi @jean - I am also facing similar issue on generating XCFramework using KMP gradle command ./gradlew assembleXCFramework
Name of XCFramework 'kmp-shared' differs from inner frameworks name 'shared'! Framework renaming is not supported yet
error: the path does not point to a valid framework: /Users/danair/Desktop/KotlinMultiPlatform/my-kotlin/libraries/kmp-libraries/kmp-shared/build/kmp_sharedXCFrameworkTemp/fatframework/debug/iosSimulator/kmp_shared.framework

[Darshan Nair]

Could you help me how you solved this issue? I tried multiple ways but no lucj.

I have a KMP module kmp-shared in existing android kotlin project and am trying to generate XCFramework from here.
Below is my build.gradle:

import org.jetbrains.kotlin.gradle.plugin.mpp.apple.XCFramework

plugins {
    alias(libs.plugins.kotlinMultiplatform)
    alias(libs.plugins.androidLibrary)
}

kotlin {
    androidTarget {
        compilations.all {
            kotlinOptions {
                jvmTarget = "1.8"
            }
        }
    }

    val xcf = XCFramework("kmp-shared")
    val iosTargets = listOf(iosX64(), iosArm64(), iosSimulatorArm64())
    iosTargets.forEach {
        it.binaries.framework {
            baseName = "shared"
            xcf.add(this)
        }
    }

    sourceSets {
        val commonMain by getting {
            dependencies {
                ...
            }
        }
    }
}

android {
    namespace = "com.wbd.beam.kmp"
    compileSdk = 34
    defaultConfig {
        minSdk = 21
    }
}

Hei! I manually changed the name of the root project in the settings.grafle file if I remember correctly. You could eventually change the name of the exported binary in the iOS block so both module and binary matches

[Darshan Nair]

Thanks. I got it fixed by running the assembleSharedXCFramework assemble command. Seems the default assemble command assembleXCFramework was using the module name which is different then my XC baseName.
