@bulubuloa did you find any fix for this issue?

[visuall]

Any clue what this is ... after today's VS update I am also getting the same issue.

[ceburo]

Hi, same for me after VSfM 2022 preview 4 installed. And don't find any workaround to go back.

[jkapsouras]

Hello! Same for me! Is there an solution for this?

[ceburo]

Just used the Microsoft nuget in development : https://www.nuget.org/packages/Xamarin.iOS.SwiftRuntimeSupport/ Worked fine.

Not tried in Publishing yet.

[Flash3001]

For a quick fix. When you see the error. Open the Xamarin.Swift.targets file (just double click on the error) and replace the _AppManifest variable name by AppBundleManifest

I will be pushing an update to the package.

Microsoft has renamed property name https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-macios/blob/a404081365c3cc7b35a3b74eca0eb62094d395e2/msbuild/Xamarin.Shared/Xamarin.Shared.targets#L1352

[Flash3001]

Just published update 1.0.9 with the fix.

[ceburo]

Worked for me. Thanks

[jkapsouras]

Working! Thank you!
