Added FRAMEWORK_SEARCH_PATHS to Xcode 10+ projects #559

Open DJLink opened 6 months ago

Xcode has a field FRAMEWORK_SEARCH_PATHS, which is used to search header files inside frameworks. right now we have LIBRARY_SEARCH_PATHS, but FRAMEWORK_SEARCH_PATHS will allow searching within the .framework.

https://help.apple.com/xcode/mac/11.4/#/itcaec37c2a6

So I made it so FRAMEWORK_SEARCH_PATHS will have the same contents as LIBRARY_SEARCH_PATHS.

An example of this would be SDL2.framework header files, they have<SDL2/SDL_main.h> now, by pointing LIBRARY_SEARCH_PATHS to SDL2.framework/headers it wouldn't work. However, by pointing FRAMEWORK_SEARCH_PATHS to the root folder where SDL2.framework file is, it will work. This fixed my building projects at least.

I guess we could also have a separate field for FRAMEWORK_SEARCH_PATHS, but I feel like pulling the values there as well we don't have to change any existing scripts for anyone switching from a dylib to a .framework.

Let me know your thoughts. Thanks for considering.
