How to use objcgen on Windows 10 to do .Net embedding #759

Closed dbell-movano closed 4 years ago

dbell-movano commented 4 years ago

Steps to Reproduce

  1. I created Xamarin ios class lib project “embedinnator2 class lib “ on Windows 10, Visual Studio 2019 latest. I installed Embeddinator-4000 NuGet. I built project. Used PowerShell run as admin to enter project’s bin\debug\ and then executed... C:\Users\Doug.nuget\packages\embeddinator-4000\0.4.0\tools\Embeddinator-4000.exe --gen=Obj-C --platform=ios --compile --debug --target=static --static --verbose+ embedinnator2 class lib.dll

But then got this: “Please use the objcgen tool for Objective-C generation.”

Expected Behavior

To get .Net embedding to convert a Xamarin.IOS class lib project so that it can be called from a Xcode Objective-C project

Actual Behavior

“Please use the objcgen tool for Objective-C generation.”

Environment

Visual Studio 2019 Pro on Windows 10

Build Logs

Example Project (If Possible)

As noted in the duplicate issue you filed:

The Embeddinator-4000 tool requires invocation the native tool chain to build an Objective-C framework, and does not work remotely from Windows.

See https://github.com/mono/Embeddinator-4000/issues/756 for more details.
