Library not loaded on iOS

[dawid-niedzwiecki]

I am trying to embed a Flutter module in a native iOS app by following Option B - Embed frameworks in Xcode.

I created two empty projects (one iOS app and one Flutter app). I managed to build my iOS frameworks (by running flutter build ios-framework) and I've embedded them in the native project in Xcode. It worked perfectly 😄

I then added a dependency on mapbox_maps_flutter to my na Flutter project and generated the frameworks again. Now when I run the native iOS app, I get an error in Xcode console:

I managed to track down the issue a little further. The command flutter build ios-framework for some weird reason doesn't generate all neccessary frameworks. My empty Flutter module project with only the mapbox_maps_flutter depndency added, compiled to ios frameworks, outputs the following frameworks:

• App.xcframework
• Flutter.xcframework
• FlutterPluginRegistrant.xcframework
• mapbox_maps_flutter.xcframework
• MapboxMaps.xcframework
• Turf.xcframework

Here I found that I can downlaod Mapbox SDK that contains the following frameworks:

• MapboxCoreMaps.xcframework
• MapboxMobileEvents.xcframework
• MapboxMaps.xcframework
• MapboxCommon.xcframework
• Turf.xcframework

So what I think is going on, is that the Mapbox Maps SDK isn't being downloaded properly during flutter build phase, but I have no idea why.

I have added the following 3 missing frameworks from the Mapbox website to my Xcode project and it worked!!!!!!

• MapboxCoreMaps.xcframework
• MapboxMobileEvents.xcframework
• MapboxCommon.xcframework

Any idea on what's going on? I actually don't know what I am doing, but would be great if someone with native iOS experience would have a look at this.

Sure it is downloaded properly?

I get below error on trying to build:

My bad,.. i think this is probably due to missing authentication with below instructions:
