Hi everyone,
I am stuck at the step of generating the frameworks for iOS in both debug & release.
I read here that the Gradle script “creates a debug and release version for every framework target.”
How to generate the these frameworks?

By looking into packForXCode source, one could detect that to generate debug or release framework it should be enough to pass -PXCODE_CONFIGURATION=debug or release correspondingly.

Thanks @svyatoslav.scherbina, Should I have to run packForXCode from Android studio for example in order to generate the frameworks?

[svyatoslav.scherbina]

packForXCode task can be run as any other Gradle task, e.g. using Android Studio or IntelliJ IDEA Gradle support, from command line etc.

I mean this is the only method for generating the iOS framework by calling packForXCode?

[svyatoslav.scherbina]

No, you can run other tasks instead. Please refer to packForXCode source code.

packForXcode is meant to be called from an xcode build script

Hey @Steven, what if I want to deliver it to external developers outside my company?
Should I make an Xcode project just for building this framework?

[Steven]

i think you could use packForXcode inside a terminal, as long as you know the parameters needed to run the function. In this case, you would only need to specify "XCODE_CONFIGURATION" (it should be DEBUG ou RELEASE). I'm not sure exactly how to do that inside a terminal though
