“Do Not Embed”, “Embed & Sign”, “Embed Without Signing”. What are they?. What they do?
Embedding
Do not embed static frameworks and libraries (linking happens at build time), only shared ones (dynamic linking happens at run time, so they need to be in your bundle).
Signing (only if shared/embedded)
Not required if it already has a proper signature (adhoc doesn’t count).
codesign -dv frameworkToLink.framework will return:
code object is not signed at alloradhoc: selectEmbed and sign- anything else: already properly signed, select
Embed Without Signing
