Deploy Qt4 Framework on Mac does not sign
-
The info plist seems correct ..
I doubt another thing, i use to create an Archive-> then open it manually and add the plugin folder and another dylib files to the framework and then validate with xcode and send to appstore ..I am trying to find a way to include the files within the xcode validation.
-
current problem is : unsealed content in QtCore.framework (root)
-
Do you have more details coming with that ? e.g. current vs expected ?
-
After long search, i found that this mistakes comes from redundance loop of a symbolic link
Inside the QtCore.framework/.../Resources, i found i made a symbolic link to the resources folder by mistake ..
Solution: I removed this symbolic link and resigned the files ..For info how to code sign an already signed file is as follows:-
codesign --force --sign '3rd Party Mac Developer Application: Sherif Omran (R3JGXHN3B3)' --keychain ~/Library/Keychains/login.keychain ./AppFile.appI ll let you know of the output of the upload as soon as i get the email report
-
I still get the unsealed content error

TypingTutor.app/: unsealed contents present in the root directory of an embedded framework
In subcomponent: /Users/sherifomran/Library/Developer/Xcode/Archives/2016-02-07/TypingTutor 07-02-16 00.45.xcarchive/Products/Applications/TypingTutor.app/Contents/Frameworks/QtCore.framework -
I found the following information, but i don't understand it :
codesign says I have 'unsealed content' somewhere.
Do not put files or directories into the top directory of an app or framework bundle
All content must be inside Contents or Versions respectively as described earlier.
What do they mean?My Framework structure is as follows:
QtGui.framework/
QtGui -> Versions/Current/QtGui
Resources -> Versions/Current/Resources/
Versions -
update 1:
I downloaded Qt5.5 and used the macdeployqt from version 5.5.1. It created the framework in a restructured way. However, it is missing the A folder inside the Versions. I created a symbolic link for it pointing to folder 4. I ve xcode project for recompiling and packaging. Xcode tries to sign the A folder.
codesign --force --sign 016A9E58DED20AC63F1157926166C4082C925F47 --preserve-metadata=identifier,entitlements --timestamp=none /MyApp.app/Contents/Frameworks/QtNetwork.framework/Versions/Aresult----
bundle format unrecognized, invalid, or unsuitable
Command /usr/bin/codesign failed with exit code 1.When i codesign the folder with
codesign --sign '3rd Party Mac Developer Application: XXXX XXXX (R3JGXHN3B3)' --keychain ~/Library/Keychains/login.keychain ./Versions/A
It works and xcode does not produce the same error but then when i submit, AppStore complains at unsigned framework at the root.Question: Why doesnot this work? how to debug it?
codesign --force --sign 016A9E58DED20AC63F1157926166C4082C925F47 --preserve-metadata=identifier,entitlements --timestamp=none /MyApp.app/Contents/Frameworks/QtNetwork.framework/Versions/A -
What framework at the root ?

- Previous problem was solved and i can now sign the app. The following link, helped me to solve it.
[link Signing problem due to WWDR certificate](link https://www.reddit.com/r/iOSProgramming/comments/45siza/this_certificate_has_an_invalid_issuer/)
Current Issue is the following:
The framework folder has version folder and inside the version folder there is folder called 4. This 4 must be changed into A for apple to accept it. If we change it to A, the app will crash. This is even not integrated in macdeloyqt 5.5. - Previous problem was solved and i can now sign the app. The following link, helped me to solve it.
-
In that case change the folder to A and call install_name_tool to fix the paths your application dependencies.
-
Now i could create an archive that is correctly signed with Xcode and if i open the archive and see the content and run the app, it runs. Notice that i ve put both frameworks 4 and A. When i export to generate a package to submit for appstore and submit it. It gets rejects. If i install the application locally, using otool, i see that the app links to frameworks that exist in /usr/..../ folders. But i managed to get the frameworks copied to the package but it still does not run. I get kill 9.
-- Report --
To clarify, the app fails to launch as it is linking to frameworks that are missing.
The frameworks that are missing are:
'/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib/libcrypto.1.0.0.dylib'
'/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib/libssl.1.0.0.dylib'
'/usr/local/opt/qt/lib/QtCore.framework'
'/usr/local/opt/qt/lib/QtGui.framework'
'/usr/local/opt/qt/lib/QtNetwork.framework'
'/usr/local/opt/qt/lib/QtSql.framework'Best Mac OS X development practices suggest using (in order)
@executable_path/
@loader_path/
