Can XCode archive and Export support framework targets?

Bitrise Build Issue Report template

Description of the issue

Error using Xcode Archive & Export for iOS step for a framework target. Building this target works using a script step using

xcodebuild archive \
    -scheme "${SCHEME_NAME}_iOS" \
    -destination "generic/platform=iOS" \
    -archivePath ".build/ios.xcarchive" \
    -derivedDataPath ".build/iosdd" \
    BUILD_LIBRARY_FOR_DISTRIBUTION=YES \
    SKIP_INSTALL=NO \
    ENABLE_BITCODE=NO \
    SWIFT_VERSION=5.8

I want to move this to using the XCode archive & release step to take advantage of the built in code signing.

Environment:

Where did the issue happen?

Happens both on bitrise CLI and the hosted builders

Which build Step causes the issue and which version of the step?

XCode Archive & Release 5.1.2

Reproducibility

• Does a “Rebuild” help? (You can trigger a rebuild from the Build’s page, by clicking the “Rebuild” button in the top right corner of a finished build) :NO
• Does a rebuild without caches help? (You can remove the Cache:Pull and Cache:Push steps temporarily to not to use the cache, or you can delete all the caches on the Settings tab of the app. : NO
• Does the issue happen sporadically, or every time? : Every time
• Does upgrading the build Step to the latest version help? : NO
• When did the issue start? :

Local reproduction

Can it be reproduced on your own Mac/PC by following our local debug guide? Please follow at least the first section (“Testing with a full clean git clone”) to make sure to test the state of the code what bitrise.io will get when it does a git clone in the clean environment! If possible please note which sections you tried.
Yes.

Local reproduction: Linux / Android (docker based) stack builds

Can it be reproduced by running the build locally, after doing a new git clone of the repository into the /tmp directory and running the build from there with the Bitrise CLI ( Bitrise CLI )? If no, can it be reproduced with Docker (using the same docker images / environment we use on bitrise.io)? Related guide: Running your build locally in Docker - Bitrise Docs .

n/a.

Build log

Please copy paste the build’s bitrise.io URL here (or if the issue happens somewhere else then the full logs), or if you can’t share the url / log here then send the url or full log through a private channel (e.g. email - Contact us ), with a link to the related Discuss issue.
