Should fix an issue in remote builds where if the connection gets
disconnected unexpectedly, the build might end up failing because the
main session id is changed and also the reconnection fails.
More details: https://github.com/xamarin/Xamarin.Messaging/pull/587
Hopefully this fixes some of the recurrent build problems where we'd fail to
restore nuget packages.
Ref: https://github.com/xamarin/maccore/issues/2620
I wasn't able to execute ilrepack.exe with .NET, so that continues to be
executed with mono.
We used to do the following:
1. Have abstract task classes in the Xamarin.*.Task.Core assembly (with all
the actual code for the task in question to work properly on macOS).
2. Subclassed task in the Xamarin.*.Task assembly, which did nothing.
3. On Windows we'd inject a different Xamarin.*.Task assembly, with
Windows-specific overrides for the implementation in the abstract base
class.
However, we no longer do point 3, which means that we no longer need to split
our tasks across two assemblies.
This means that we can remove the Xamarin.\*.Task.Core assemblies, and move all
the code into the corresponding Xamarin.\*.Task assembly instead.
This simplifies our code and speeds up the build.
There are more simplifications that can be done; those will come in later PRs.
We need to strongname our MSBuild assemblies, so that different versions
can be loaded side-by-side (one example being having both a legacy and a
.NET project in the same solution).
This required setting a version for Xamarin.iOS.Tasks.dll and
Xamarin.Mac.Tasks.dll, otherwise strong-naming won't work properly (all
versions of an assembly would have the same identity).
Also sign the corresponding test assemblies, since they poke into the
internals of the task assemblies.
Fixes https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-macios/issues/9835.
This reverts commit 9a27951a99.
The purpose of the original commit was to take out 4 tasks that were only executed from Windows to the Windows specific pack (and enabling more tasks that need to be executed remotely on that pack).
To execute tasks remotely the build will initially run `SayHello` which connects to the Mac and shares the connection with all the tasks through IBuildEngine4[1]. When that connection object is retrieved on the tasks we need to cast it as a Messaging connection type, and this works from Visual Studio and msbuild because there's just one messaging assembly loaded.
But it doesn't work on dotnet/msbuild, because there's a feature called ALC (AssemblyLoadContext) which will load each assembly task into it's own context[2], loading all its dependencies in that context. In this scenario sharing custom objects between tasks won't work because the original object type could be from a different context than the one retrieving it. This is described here: https://github.com/dotnet/msbuild/issues/5084.

These changes add support for executing iOS and MacDev tasks remotely (on a Mac) when running a build from Windows, and creates a specific .NET6 pack for Windows that's only included in the MSI.
For now this only enables builds for the iOS Simulator, physical devices are not yet supported.
- Each task decides if it should run locally or remotely depending on the SessionId property, which will only have a value on Windows.
- The XMA Build agent is now part of this repo and will be included in the iOS .NET6 Windows pack.
- On this first version we're including some Windows specific tasks and references into the Xamarin.iOS.Tasks project for simplicity, but those will be moved to the Windows specific project.
------------
* [msbuild] Adds support for executing Xamarin.iOS tasks from Windows
* [msbuild] Adds support for executing Xamarin.MacDev tasks from Windows
* Added XMA Build Agent to Xamarin.MacDev.Tasks.sln
* Fixes some MSBuild versioning problems
* Makes the XMA Build agent load Xamarin.iOS tasks
We need to load a type from the iOS tasks assembly so we can run the tasks requested by MSBuild from Windows. We only need to load Xamarin.iOS.Tasks.dll since MacDev.tasks is already embedded in that one.
There's a little trick on the csproj, we can't directly use the Xamarin.iOS.Tasks project ref assemblies because that includes both Xamarin.iOS.Tasks.dll and Xamarin.MacDev.Tasks.dll, so the MacDev tasks will collide. We use the project ref only for build dependency purposes but we add an assembly reference to Xamarin.iOS.Tasks.dll.
* Added Xamarin.iOS.Tasks.Windows project
* Removed unnecessary references on Xamarin.iOS.Tasks.Windows.csproj
* Adds Messaging assemblies when ILRepacking Xamarin Tasks
The Xamarin Task assemblies now depend on Messaging, so we need the Messaging assemblies to be packed into Xamarin.Mac.Tasks and Xamarin.iOS.Tasks. Also had to remove the direct Messaging dependencies from the build agent since those are already contained in Xamarin.iOS.Tasks
* Adds a reference to Messaging.Core targets to the Agent's project
* [msbuild] Adds Xamarin iOS Windows targets
* [msbuild] Adds missing dependencies to Xamarin.iOS.Tasks
This should fix build errors because of missing dependencies. Had to move System.Net.Mqtt.Server from the Build agent project to the tasks one to avoid conflicts with System.Diagnostics.Tracer.
* [dotnet] Creates iOS Windows pack
Creates a new pack for Windows specific (targets, build agent, etc.) files that shouldn't be installed on the Mac. We have a separate package for this to avoid increasing the core pack size with things that are not needed when using it from macOS.
* Fixes type in dotnet makefile
* [dotnet] Fixes the iOS Windows pack generation
- The windows pack should not include the Sdk and Targets folders
- For now we'll just create an iOS pack
- Fixes the path to the files to include on the Windows Sdk pack
* Added reference to the Windows iOS SDK from the Xamarin.iOS.Common.targets
Added a property to navigate to the Windows iOS SDK folder, based on a naming convention that assumes that both packs will always have the same version
* Added reference to the core iOS SDK from the Windows iOS SDK
Added a property to navigate to the core iOS SDK folder, based on a naming convention that assumes that both packs will always have the same version
* Updated Messaging version
* Override MessagingBuildClientAssemblyFile property and correctly imported props from targets
* [dotnet] Make Windows pack using target files from the output dir
We need to take the target files from the output dir to include targets that are part of nuget packages, otherwise we will only include targets from our source
* [dotnet] Adds the Windows Sdk pack to the workload manifest
* [msbuild] Fixes the Windows Sdk pack name
* [dotnet] Merge Mqtt instead of Mqtt.Server
We only need System.Net.Mqtt to be merged into Xamarin.iOS.Tasks
* Updated Messaging version
* [dotnet] Several fixes for the Windows Sdk
- Adds missing task CollectMonotouchReferences
- Merges more dependencies into Xamarin.iOS.Tasks.dll needed by XMA
- Updates the msbuild/Makefile to include files from both the output dir and the source dir
- Overrides the agents directory to look for them on the Windows pack
* [dotnet] Fixes the XMA Build agent
- The build agent is an app so it cannot target ns2.0
- The MSBuild dependencies should be copied into the agent zip file
- Avoids copying all the Xamarin iOS SDK core targets into the build agent, since those are not needed
- Ensures the broker zip file is copied into the Xamarin.iOS.Windows.Tasks output dir so its included in the Windows pack
* Bumps Xamarin.Messaging to 1.2.102
* Adds net6-win branch to trigger builds
* Adds Messaging.Client missing dependency to Xamarin.Mac.Tasks
* Added Xamarin.Messaging.Apple.Tasks project and VerifyXcodeVersion Task
* Fix unloaded Xamarin.Messaging.Build project
* Added Build contracts project and unified Xamarin.Messaigng.Apple.Tasks in Xamarin.iOS.Tasks.Windows
Also added missing tasks and changes .After.targets
* Updated Xamarin.Messaging version
* Build agent - reference MSBuild assemblies from the framework
Since the assemblies will be included in the build agent we need those to be the ones that come from the framework to be compatible with macOS
* [msbuild] Fixes _UpdateDynamicLibraryId target
The tasks con this target need to be executed remotely (when building from Windows).
* Updates resources
* Bump Xamarin.Messaging
Fixes problems when executing Exec task remotely
* [dotnet] Overrides Publish targets to execute them remotely from Windows
The `_CopyResolvedFilesToPublishPreserveNewest` and `_CopyResolvedFilesToPublishAlways` targets essentially copy files into the app bundle. Since those are part of the .NET SDK we need to override those so we can pass to the Copy task the SessionId parameter and then it will be executed remotely when building from Windows.
This is done in a Windows.After.targets file so it won't affect builds on macOS.
* Added ILMerge to Xamarin.iOS.Tasks.Windows
Also modified ILMerge.targets to not include System assemblies because we don't need them on the Windows package
* Bumps Messaging
This new version of messaging fixes a problem when copying task inputs from Windows to the Mac
* [dotnet] Fixes copying files to the Mac when building from Windows
When building from Windows there are .NET SDK targets that copy dynamic libraries from the SDK to the intermediate output directory or other files to the publish directory, since we can't control those we can't run them remotely so we need to copy those files to the Mac to ensure other targets will find those.
* [dotnet] Fixes how files are copied to the output dir
- Before executing `_CopyResolvedFilesToPublishPreserveNewest` and `_CopyResolvedFilesToPublishAlways` we copy the input files for those targets to the Mac
- Then we override the original targets to execute the same copy task as the original ones but on the Mac, so the output files are placed in the right location for the following targets to pick them up.
* Fixes typo on Xamarin.iOS.Common.After.targets
* Bumps Xamarin.Messaging
* [msbuild] Fixes VerifyXcodeVersion and ResolveUTIs tasks
Both tasks were not being able to connect to the Mac mostly because of ILRepack, there were kind of 2 versions of Xamarin.Messaging, one merged into Xamarin.iOS.Tasks and another one merged into Xamarin.iOS.Windows.Tasks. Because of this the build connection object registered on the task could not be casted to the build connection type.
This essentially moves both tasks into the Xamarin.iOS.Tasks assembly to avoid this issue, and as part of that also includes the Messaging contracts into that same project.
* [msbuild] Fixes warnings when building from Windows
* [dotnet] Adds missing assemblies to merge into Xamarin.iOS.Tasks
Those 2 new assemblies will only be used from Windows and we need their implementation instead of the ref assemblies. In the future we will need to find a way of doing this on the Windows only pack insted of doing it on the core Xamarin.iOS.Tasks assembly.
* [dotnet] Compute PublishTrimmed on a target
We need to do this so the property is evaluated after VS on Windows connects to the Mac, otherwise by default IsMacEnabled is false from Windows.
* Bumps Messaging to 1.2.111
* [dotnet] Execute ILLink remotely when building from Windows
- Overrides the ILLink task and _RunILLink target to add the hability to execute it remotely, adding input and output properties so files are copied to the server and output files are created on Windows.
- This "custom" ILLink task will only be executed from the Windows targets so when building from a Mac it will execute the core SDK task.
* [dotnet] Fixes intput/output files creation for linker tasks
- Custom Linker options file should be created on the Mac so we need to execute WriteLinesToFile remotely
- All the *.items files from the linker are created on the Mac so we need to execute ReadItemsFromFile remotely
- CompileNativeCode: fixes the OutputFile metadata path, otherwise the execution fails; also copies all the files in the declared "IncludeDirectories" to the Mac
- Avoids copying input files from Windows to the Mac when running LinkNativeCode since the real input files already exist on the Mac, and Windows contains only empty files just to make MSBuild inputs/outputs check work. If we copy those empty files to the Mac we brake the build.
* [msbuild] Minor fixes after merging from main
* [dotnet] Adds missing output files to the Xamarin.iOS.Tasks.Windows project
The output of this project was missing Messaging build targets and the build agent zip file that are needed to create the dotnet Windows specific pack
* [dotnet] Fixes dotnet Windows specific pack generation
Ensures the Windows projects are built and the files are copied to the dotnet pack directory before creating the package.
It also adds a variable to enable building this pack.
* [dotnet] Adds iOS Windows specific pack to iOS only MSI
There's only a Windows specific pack for iOS available for now, so we should only add it to the iOS SDK MSI
* [dotnet] Create a separate bundle for the iOS Windows MSI
We need to do this to avoid including the Windows specific pack in the pkg. Also for now we'll only create an MSI for iOS since it's the only supported platform from Windows.
* Fixes spacing issues in Xamarin.iOS.Tasks.csproj
* Bumps Touch.Unit back to 05db76
* Fixes formatting problems
* [msbuild] Replaces error E0176 by E0186
Because there's a warning W0176 that will overlap with the error
* [msbuild] Fixes CompileEntitlements task
There were 2 problems:
1- The if statement on the DefaultEntitlementsPath was wrong, because we should return the base value if there's no SessionId (which means the task is running on a Mac)
2- We should copy to the Mac the default entitlements file if no custom file was specified
* Several fixes to cleanup the code to support iOS from Windows
* Apply suggestions from code review
Co-authored-by: Rolf Bjarne Kvinge <rolf@xamarin.com>
* Formatting fixes in Xamarin.Messaging.Build
* Reverted formatting changes in CompileEntitlements.cs
* More formatting fixes
* Update msbuild/Messaging/Xamarin.Messaging.Build/Handlers/ExecuteTaskMessageHandler.cs
Co-authored-by: Rolf Bjarne Kvinge <rolf@xamarin.com>
* Fixes order of MSBuild errors in the resource file
* Add newly added localizable strings to canary test of translated strings.
* Delete tests that ensure theres code only on the abstract tasks
These were needed to ensure all the code was in the base tasks so we could have tasks implementations on Windows to remote those. Now that code is part of this repo (and that is why these tests are failing now) so we do not need them anymore.
* [dotnet] Don't build the Windows SDK pack if not configured to do so.

* The ILRepack package uses a 4-year old version of Mono.Cecil, which does not
support portable pdbs. Work is in progress to use a newer version of
Mono.Cecil (https://github.com/gluck/il-repack/pull/236), but this is taking
some time (the PR is over a year old). In the meantime, switch to the
ILRepack.MSBuild.Task package, which ships a forked and updated ILRepack.exe
executable. This means the assembly merging process will produce a working
pdb for the merged assembly, which in turn means we'll get stack traces with
source code location.
* Update the makefile to ship the pdbs we produce. Also don't copy files into
a temporary build/ directory, since it's not needed. This avoids an
intermediate file copy.
Mono.Posix comes with a native library, and that makes IL merging much more
complicated, especially when Mono.Posix comes from a nuget. So remove the
Mono.Posix dependency, and instead write the 2 P/Invokes we need manually.
* Bump Xamarin.MacDev.
New commits in xamarin/Xamarin.MacDev:
* xamarin/Xamarin.MacDev@210c664 Adds net451 to Xamarin.MacDev.csproj
* xamarin/Xamarin.MacDev@64db365 [winios] Changes provisioning profiles default path
* xamarin/Xamarin.MacDev@d34430a Switch to short-form projects and build for both net461 and netstandard2.0. (#68)
Diff: 0f578f51e6..210c664e56
* [msbuild] Update to latest Mono.Cecil.
The older version doesn't support netstandard2.0.
No code changes were required.
* [msbuild] Remove unused usings.
* [msbuild] Make ILMerge work when building for netstandard2.0.
Also unify/deduplicate the ILMerge logic between Xamarin.iOS and Xamarin.Mac.
* [msbuild] Build for netstandard2.0 in addition to net461.
* [msbuild] Use custom project configurations to support running the tests for both netstandard2.0 and net461.
Use custom project configurations to support running the tests for when the
tasks assembly is built for netstandard2.0 and net461.
* [tests] Make command-line based 'make test-ios-tasks' run tests for both netstandard2.0 and net461.
* [xharness] Add test configuration to run iOS MSBuild tests using either netstandard2.0 or net461.
* [msbuild] Make the netstandard2.0-buils task assemblies the default.
* [msbuild] ILRepack lib assemblies, not ref assemblies.
Ask MSBuild to copy lib assemblies to the output folder when building for
netstandard2.0, this way we can easily find the actual implementation
libraries to pass to ILRepack.
* [msbuild] Merge System.Text.Encodings.Web.dll as well.
* [xharness] Fix build of MSBuild tests for iOS.
