<div dir="ltr">Well a framework is effectively dylib *in a bundle*. For swift there is some special module stuff baked in too.

Which these days is frameworks. But if you can get the .mk to produce a dylib and be able to use it the dev process will be better whether you use a framework to encapsulate the library or not.</div></div><div><br></div><div>Does the dylib load at all on the device? Or does it give image not found error, or symbol not found?
