Research direction

Start by locating the project’s xcframework build configuration and checking where MACH_O_TYPE is set. Confirm the resulting xcframework is built as a static library and verify that it can be integrated without the shared-library issues described in the request.

Description

Hey guys,

First, thank you.

Would it be possible to compile the xcframework using MACH_O_TYPE=staticlib?
Right now, it’s built as a shared library, which leads to some tricky situations during integration. Building it as a static library would help avoid those issues, and if needed, it can still be used as a dynamic library by wrapping it in a dummy framework.
