[ios] libraries - pugixml missing?

[dimitre]

/Volumes/tool/ofw/libs/pugixml/lib/macos/pugixml.xcframework:1:1 While building for iOS, no library for this platform was found in '/Volumes/tool/ofw/libs/pugixml/lib/macos/pugixml.xcframework'.

I think iOS is working now right @artificiel ?
Can we close this?

[artificiel]

it's hard to say as there is no clear information on the context of where the reported error occurred.

FWIW xmlSettingsExample compiles and runs fine with of_v20241109_ios_release.

i do notice in the reported error path above the presence of /macos/ maybe the encountered error is related to path libs "exploration"? again lacking context to ensure.

[artificiel]

following up on iOS testing, i noticed that all projects relying on subfolders (for .h or other ressources) are broken as distributed (ex: assimpExample iosExternalDisplayExample iosNativeARCExample iPhoneGuiExample) as the provided project does not include subfolders.

running the bundled PG (0.83.0) over them restores things.

i don't know how the iOS project files are generated for release but it seems to run incorrectly as far as /src processing goes

[edit to add: maybe this warrants another issue but maybe it's trivial]

@artificiel @dimitre
Sounds like we need to be using the same PG in the CI that's been shipped ( 0.83.0 ).
We should check the actions and see what PG version is being used .

Was this in the nightly release @artificiel or the latest release?

[ofTheo]

Hmm the nightly is using 0.86.0 see:

projectGenerator exists...
PG building example projects
  [notice ] { "openFrameworks projectGenerator": "0.86.0" }
  [notice ] ofPath set and valid using ["/home/runner/work/openFrameworks/openFrameworks/out/openFrameworks_pkg_creation"]
  
  [notice ] -----------------------------------------------
  [notice ] updating an existing project
  [notice ] target platform is: ios
  [notice ] recursiveUpdate "/home/runner/work/openFrameworks/openFrameworks/out/openFrameworks_pkg_creation/examples"

Is this a regression with 0.83.0 to 0.86.0 ?

[artificiel]

above testing was done in the context of #8192 with of_v20241109_ios_release which includes 0.83.0.

just re-checked with of_v20241121_ios_release which now includes 0.86.0, and it's the same: the delivered example projects do not include subfolders, but running 0.86.0 over them fixes it. so either a regression in PG (since at least a little while) or something related to command-line invocation or some other env condition of CI.

NB: "get info" on the PG app reports v 0.67.0:

[dimitre]

Yeah once Dan added this info to "reflect" PG command line. but it got outdated soon.
I think they are two very different pieces of software, they should have independent versions.

[dimitre]

I'm closing this one as I've downloaded the latest libs and worked OK
