I am completely new to ios , mac and xcode. Basically I am a xamarin developer which is based on .net,at the moment our client have a requirement to use an existing sdk in their xamarin ios project. To create a native binding for xamarin ios,we need to create a .framework file.

So how to create a .framework file from existing SDK Codes,for example lets say this one

https://github.com/facebook/facebook-ios-sdk

This is just an example...I know libraries for Facebook already exists in .Net

    Any binary Xcode emits needs to be signed somehow. Provisioning profile contains information on which behalf to sign this binary, and also it checks whether the developer is eligible to do so (e.g. if the project requires Push Notification capabilities, you can only build it with paid Apple Developer Program).

  • ok, unfortunately it is indeed a push notification library that client is looking for..So it is not possible to create a framework file without provisional certifcate from a open source sdk,for android i was able to create aar files for the same sdk...for ios i am really struggling

  • so your framework can contain functionality that creates or processes push notifications, BUT the final configuration of the push notifications is done on each app which integrates with the framework.
