Rename our product assemblies to:
* Microsoft.iOS.dll
* Microsoft.tvOS.dll
* Microsoft.macOS.dll
* Microsoft.MacCatalyst.dll
This makes it easy to distinguish between legacy Xamarin and .NET whenever the
product assembly is mentioned, and I've also chosen the platform part of the
name to match how the platforms are named elsewhere (this also makes it
possible to simplify our build logic, since we can remove a lot of special
casing).
Fixes https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-macios/issues/13748.
Add support for the PublishFolderType metadata on Content and BundleResource
items, which makes it possible to change the location in the app bundle for
these items (this was possible to do before with the Link metadata), but most
importantly it also makes it possible to choose to *not* bundle these items in
the app bundle (which was not possible before with the Link metadata, nor any
other means).
At first I thought setting CopyToPublishDirectory /
CopyToOutputDirectory=Never would accomplish that, but it turns out we don't
honor those, and since we already have this behavior of ignoring
CopyToPublishDirectory / CopyToOutputDirectory in legacy Xamarin, I didn't
want to change it in .NET.
So I added support for honoring the PublishFolderType metadata instead, which
is new and we already support for other item groups. This is accomplished by
adding all Content and BundleResource items with PublishFolderType set to the
ResolvedFileToPublish item group (where we already handle any
PublishFolderType values), and then we ignore such Content and BundleResource
items in our CollectBundleResources task.
Also update the documentation and add tests.
Not embedding third-party libraries in the binding assembly is the future, and
let's try to enable it by default starting with .NET.

Include all files in the project's Resources subdirectory as BundleResource
items (except .DS_Store files, which are pretty omnipresent on macOS).
Also, contrary to the other default includes, add a condition so files are
only included if we have a resource prefix (typically "Resources"), otherwise
the entire hard drive might be included, and that's not really what we want.
Fixes https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-macios/issues/13808.
Also make the (NativeHandle) constructor protected instead of public, to make
it clearer that it's not for public consumption.
And modify the template tests to execute the template if we can.
Fixes https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-macios/issues/13979.
This hopefully solves a few problems on M1, where we'd want to execute with
.NET 5 (last stable .NET release), but that version only supports x86_64, and
then if an ARM64 version of .NET 6 was also installed, things would break in
mysterious ways.
This way we have full control over what happens, and also a consistent
environment across all machines.

We're copying files differently to the bundle now, and we end up doing less
when not building on a Mac, which is why we're not copying Xamarin.iOS.dll
anymore.
Don't add FileNativeReferences to the main libraries to link with, because we
pass that list of main libraries to the LinkNativeCodeTask, and we're already
passing the FileNativeReferences for a different task parameter.
This means that we end up adding the file native reference twice to the linker
arguments, and that's wasteful. It can also cause problems if those linker
arguments aren't always computed in the same way (once as a relative path,
once as an absolute path for instance).
Fixes https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-macios/issues/13503.
There can't be any files in the root directory of the app bundle for macOS and
Mac Catalyst, otherwise code signing will fail. The problem is that Mono will
create a crash report in the current directory if the process crashes, and the
current directory is the root directory of the app bundle, which means that if
running an app crashes, the next build will likely fail because of the crash
report.
We had logic to detect this and remove any crash reports, but our crash report
detection pattern wasn't good enough and let some files through. This PR
updates that pattern, and also improves the code to report warnings for any
other files in the app bundle's root directory.
Check for the x64 version of .NET to see if it's installed if the default
dotnet location doesn't exist (the x64 version will exist on an ARM64 mac when
installing the x64 version of .NET).
Also allow the .NET unit tests to be executed using any recentish version of
.NET.
* [tests] Create a libtest.xcframework and libtest2.xcframework
* [tests] Make bindings-test and bindings-test2 use an xcframework instead of plain static library
* [msbuild] Add support for xcframeworks with static libraries in them.
* List the frameworks libtest needs.
* [tests] Update .NET unit tests according to test project changes.
* [tests] Add new test to verify that packing an old-style binding project doesn't work.
* [dotnet] Show an error if an app developer tries to publish a simulator architecture.
* We can't publish a simulator build, so show an error in that case.
* We can't change the default runtime identifier when publishing (to a
publishable runtime identifier), because by the time we know we're
publishing, it's too late to change the runtime identifier. This means that
it'll be required for app developers to specify a runtime identifier when
publishing to a mobile platform, since the current default runtime
identifier is for a simulator build.
Partial fix for https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-macios/issues/12997.
* Fix typo and improve naming.
* [dotnet] Don't use '_UsingDefaultRuntimeIdentifier', it's already used elsewhere in .NET
* Submodule MonoTouch.Dialog.
Submodule MonoTouch.Dialog, so that we can easily build it using .NET. This
submodule will become redundant when/if we publish a .NET version of
MonoTouch.Dialog, but until that happens we need it at least for our own test
suites.
This also means we have to copy our NuGet.config and global.json files to the
MonoTouch.Dialog project directory so that we point msbuild to use our local
build.
New commits in spouliot/Touch.Unit:
* spouliot/Touch.Unit@cbda703 [Touch.Client] Use MonoTouch.Dialog from a submodule. (#109)
Diff: 3345db2f4e..cbda703583
* Use relative path for submodule.
And fix indentation and set the branch name.
* Don't use 'RootTestsDirectory' when it might not be defined yet.
* [tests] Our test projects don't need to reference MonoTouch.Dialog directly.
The projects get the MonoTouch.Dialog reference indirectly through the
Touch.Client project reference.
* [tests] Only validate unique errors in the .NET unit tests.
* [tests] No need to reference System.Json anymore, that's handled directly in the MonoTouch.Dialog project.
* [tests] Reference nunit.framework.targets so we get a workaround for an NUnit issue everywhere.
* [msbuild] Only try to create a package if we're able to create an app bundle.
This fixes an issue where a library project would try (and fail) to create a
package when 'CreatePackage=true' (which could be set for the executable
project, but inherited by the library project since the executable project
depends on it).
* [tests] Adjust PackTest.BindingXcFrameworksProject to not set the AssemblyName property.
MSBuild ends up being very confused when the project we're trying to build
depends on other projects, because AssemblyName is set for all the projects
being build, and MSBuild complains about ambiguous projects:
> error: Ambiguous project name 'bindings-xcframework-test'
* [net6] Fix ILStrip'ed apps to actually work again
- In a late minute change to the ILStrip PR (https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-macios/pull/12563) a change to support XVS support broke execution of Apps that were stripped
- Applications were broken because none of the stripped assemblies were actually copied into the bundle
- However, the tests still passed, because all assemblies that were there had no IL (zero assemblies total)
Now why did this happen?
- The stripped assemblies were changed to return via an msbuild Output Element
- Output Element can return an Property or ItemGroup, depending if you use the PropertyName or ItemName attributes
- Unfortunately I used PropertyName, when I expected an ItemGroup. So I silently had a property created instead.
- Thus zero items were added to the list of files to copy into the bundle
- Which was undetected as the test did not confirm files were copied in, and manual tests were not run so late into the PR (3 weeks after PR was opened)
How was it fixed?
- Correctly using ItemName on Output created a valid item group to reference
- However, that still failed with an absurdly confusing error:
PATH/Microsoft.NET.Publish.targets(277,5): error MSB3024: Could not copy the file FILE to the destination file PATH, because the destination is a folder instead of a file. To copy the source file into a folder, consider using the DestinationFolder parameter instead of DestinationFiles.
- After a splunking through netcore targets, I found the metadata on these assemblies references really matters. Without it, they are not processed correctly at all.
- Thus, I updated ILStripBase to clone the existing metadata when changing the original assembly reference to the stripped path
- Finally, I corrected the test to assert that required files are copied in. I also manually ran our device test.

Fixes this when running our test suites on macOS 10.14:

Add support for 'dotnet pack', by:
1. Add a workaround for the fact that as soon as a project has a
'NativeReference' item, .NET's MSBuild logic wants to include a
'Native.$(AssemblyName).manifest' file in the NuGet. This obviously breaks,
because we don't create such a file, so we work around it by removing the
file in question from the corresponding item groups.
2. Add any binding resource packages to the NuGet.
3. Add tests.
Fixes https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-macios/issues/12631.
We don't need to compile project-level assets for every RuntimeIdentifier in
multi-rid builds, we can instead compile them just once in the outer build.
There is also a correctness issue here: we can't compile assets more than once
and expect to get the exact same compiled result every time (in particular
actool seems to be adding random bytes in to the compiled output), and this
creates a problem when trying to merge the different runtime-specific compiled
output into a universal binary.
We accomplish this by:
* Processing these assets in the outer build, before we execute the
rid-specific inner builds.
* Store the paths to the assets we've processed in a file.
* In the inner builds, we read that file, and remove any matches from the
corresponding item group.
* Make sure to copy the compiled assets to the app bundle at the end of the
outer build.
These are the assets we currently handle this way:
* BundleResource
* ImageAsset
* InterfaceDefinition
* SceneKitAsset
* Collada
* TextureAtlas
* CoreMLModel
Also:
* Add a new test case (AppWithResource) that contains all these different
types of assets.
* Add support for the ScnTool task on Mac Catalyst (which the new test case
revealed was missing).
Fixes https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-macios/issues/12410.
For executable projects, we must run the linker (otherwise we won't produce
something that can be executed).
We'll enable the linker by default in these cases, but if the developer has
manually disabled the linker (if the linker fails to execute for any reason,
it will suggest that the developer disables it), then we should show an error
explaining why.
Fixes https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-macios/issues/12372.
This PR resolves a crash when running the linker on publishing iOS extensions.
The crash would occur here in failing to resolve corelib.
The reason this would fail was System.Private.CoreLib.dll was not in input_assemblies.
This was because we were passes the set of reference assemblies not the expected 'real' ones, and those do not include CoreLib.
After a bunch of digging, this was because _ComputeManagedRuntimePackAssembliesIfSelfContained target was not being set as a condition of _ComputeAssembliesToPostprocessOnPublish.
_ComputeManagedRuntimePackAssembliesIfSelfContained happened to be the place these were added, and wasn't being set since it has a condition of $(SelfContained) == 'true'
Now confusingly SelfContained WAS being set to true, but only in the targets file, which was too late, as it was checked in a 'global' property group outside of a target.
This means we'd fail to set SelfContained until after the condition, and not run.
This was verified by setting /p:SelfContained=true to true.
I also looked at removing the condition above, since https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/issues/54406 is fixed, however this caused project that didn't set RuntimeIdentifier to fail.
It's not tested, and thus has probably already bitrotted. If we add support
for watchOS to .NET in the future, it would likely be easier to start from
scratch (copying some of the other platforms), than having incomplete and
bitrotted code.
* Automatically include *.ttf, *.ttc and *.otf in .NET projects as BundleResource
items (if these files are found within the Resources/ subdirectory).
* Add support for a 'RegisterFont' metadata on BundleResource items, where if set
to 'true', we'll register the font file in the Info.plist as required by the target
platform.
* Add tests.
Fixes https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-macios/issues/12536.
* [dotnet-linker] Remove workaround for a dotnet/runtime issue wrt the AOT compiler.
The dotnet/runtime issue has been fixed.
Ref: https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/issues/55733
* [tests] Set the _BundlerVerbosity property instead of MtouchExtraArgs/MonoBundlingExtraArgs to increase verbosity.
This fixes a problem where a test project would try to set the
MtouchExtraArgs/MonoBundlingExtraArgs properties, and it would fail because
the MtouchExtraArgs/MonoBundlingExtraArgs properties were already set from the
command line (and in MSBuild, properties that are set from command line
arguments can't be changed later).
In particular we have logic to pass --dlsym:+nunit.framework.dll for
monotouch-test, and that would just be ignored.
We either have defaults or MSBuild properties for the most important values that
were previously required to be in the Info.plist, so now it doesn't make sense anymore
to require an Info.plist, when for simple cases it will just be an empty file.
This allows us to simplify some of our test projects and remove a few empty Info.plist files.
* Add support for the SupportedOSPlatformVersion MSBuild property, and write
it to the Info.plist for the corresponding minimum OS version.
* If there are any minimum OS version in the Info.plist, we'll now show an
error if it doesn't match SupportedOSPlatformVersion.
This unfortunately means that if there's any minimum OS version in any
Info.plist, then that will most likely have to be moved to the
SupportedOSPlatformVersion property (or removed entirely if that's the right
choice), since it's unlikely to match the default value for
SupportedOSPlatformVersion. However, this was deemed to be the best option for
the future (it's a one-time pain during migration).
Also add new tests, update existing tests, and update the templates.
Fixes https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-macios/issues/12336.
Both the CompileProductDefinition and the CreateInstaller tasks must take the
final app manifest as input, because there may now be multiple input manifests
(or one day none at all), and the final app manifest is the only version that
is guaranteed to exist and contain everything.

If we use the version number string of `**FromWorkload**`, then our
runtime packages don't need to be resolved from a NuGet feed. They can
be resolved from the `dotnet/packs` directory.
This completely eliminates the need for a `NuGet.config` file when
building a .NET 6 app with a local build of xamarin-macios.
You will no longer need a feed such as:
<add key="local-dotnet-feed" value="~/src/xamarin-macios/_build/nuget-feed" />
To further clean things up, I removed the need for:
* Any NuGet feed named `local-dotnet-feed`
* `$(DOTNET_FEED_DIR)`
* Generation of `dotnet/Workloads/NuGet.config`
