Outdated article

Description

With the retirement of Visual Studio for Mac there are currently no instructions on how to get entitlements working for iOS or MacCatalyst while developing on a Mac. The sections for Visual Studio for Mac should be updated to instructions for VS Code.

This applies to this article as well: Mac Catalyst entitlements

Hi @scottkuhl

Agreed about the docs update, but as a quick answer it's literally a case of having to add an XML file to the project and hand edit it.

I think this is a separate issue, but these pages also need updating:

Automatic provisioning for iOS apps Manual provisioning for iOS apps

These are probably more important, because the IDEs hide some "magic" that handles some very complicated stuff.

@davidbritch would you like me to open a separate issue for those?

Hi @scottkuhl

Please go ahead. It's all known issues that anything with VSMac content needs VSCode versions, but you creating issues will save me doing so.

There's no good story about a lot of this stuff in VSCode though. It's the whole VSCode being an editor versus VSMac being an IDE. So in VSCode provisioning is a case of using Xcode to pull down provisioning profiles, and then using command line to set certificates/profiles.

Even documenting that process would help. I'll open another story. Thanks.
