I didn’t find a recent topic about that.
Since 2026r2 when I build a Mac application, I’ve a built application as usual in the folder but I have too a DMG containing the built application. I didn’t change any setting and I didn’t see a new setting I have to change.
I’m under Mac Sequoia.
Could you explain what you mean?
Heu… what??
I click the button to Build my application, I obtained that:
The Builds folder contains my application in the folder “macOS ARM 64 bit” and there is another one in the DMG “MemoDate”.
I opened Xojo settings on “Building” tab and I clicked “Clear Caches” and now I have the error below:
It’s ok, I have my built application in the folder “macOS ARM 64 bit” but not the DMG. I don’t want to but Xojo is still trying to make the dmg. It can’t create the Dmg as the path is not good, the path of my project’s folder is “/Volumes/MBtom-HD2/MesDocuments/5 Programmes/Xojo Perso/MemoDate_src/”.
Edit: If I uncheck “Notarization” in “Sign” Xojo do not try to make the Dmg.
EDit2: My Sign setting is “Build For” “Direct Distribution”.
As-tu lu les “Release Notes” pour 2026r2 ?
macOS: Added signing of macOS Console apps beyond Ad-Hoc, so Entitlements can be attached and these apps can be also Notarized and attached to Apple’s Instruments app. Also, changed the compressed file sent to Notarization service from Zip to DMG image. (81072)
release_notes 2026r2, the (81072) is protected so we can’t read. And yes I always read but they speak about Console. And even if Xojo send a DMG to sign, I shouldn’t get this trouble.
Maybe you opened the previous DMG from the previous build and not ejected it yet.
I ejected it, removed the dmg. I launched Onyx (which I launch some time to time), then restarted my Mac but the problem is still there.
When you build application with Sign setting = “Build For” “Direct Distribution”. Do you get the built application in a folder or do you you get a Dmg? Or both?
Instead of speculation and guesses, why don’t you show us all of the build steps you have under macOS.
If you select notarization in your macOS build settings “Sign” step, it now creates a DMG. I was caught off guard by this at first, but for this project I’ve been working on, it actually helps. I suspect that you could delete the DMG and your application as distributed the way you normally do would still be notarized, but maybe @Javier_Menendez can shed some more light on the process.
The second screenshot is what I was asking for. There was a pretty popular build script that would pack disk images.
