Apple's iOS App Store does not permit an app to link to naked dylibs.
Instead, these must be placed in frameworks, which are embedded in a
dynamic version of MoltenVK.xcframework.
- Use Xcode to directly generate a MoltenVK.framework for each platform,
and remove create_dylib*.sh scripts.
- Move static XCFramework, containing libMoltenVK.a static libraries,
to Package/Latest/MoltenVK/static/MoltenVK.xcframework.
- Generate dynamic XCFramework, containing MoltenVK.framework dynamic
libraries, in Package/Latest/MoltenVK/dynamic/MoltenVK.xcframework.
- Add macro MVK_VERSION_STRING to create version string at compile time,
use it to validate the CURRENT_PROJECT_VERSION build setting at compile time,
and use it at runtime instead of mvkGetMoltenVKVersionString() function.
- Add -w to OTHER_LDFLAGS to dynamic framework builds to suppress
spurious linker warnings of the type
"ld: warning: no platform load command found in '...', assuming: iOS"
issued from the new linker introduced in Xcode 15.
- Add MoltenVK-MacCat Xcode target and MoltenVK Package (MacCat only)
Xcode scheme to avoid building dynamic MoltenVK.framework for the
Mac Catalyst platform, because Xcode does not support doing so.
- Always run MoltenVK build scripts, to ensure all components are
added to the XCFrameworks, and MoltenVK/Package is always refreshed,
even if code compilation is not required.
- Cube demo link to dynamic MoltenVK.framework through
dynamic/MoltenVK.xcframework, instead of to naked libMoltenVK.dylib.
- Update the version of Volk used by the Cube demo, to support
loading MoltenVK from dynamic frameworks inside Volk.
- Update README.md and MoltenVK_Runtime_UserGuide.md documents.
- Update MVK_PRIVATE_API_VERSION to 40.
- Fix make install to install /usr/local/lib/libMoltenVK.dylib on macOS (unrelated).
- Remove unused MTLAttributeStrideStatic declaration prior to Xcode 15 (unrelated).
Combine MoltenVKSPIRVToMSLConverter and MoltenVKGLSLToSPIRVConverter
frameworks into a single MoltenVKShaderConverter framework.
Update corresponding directory structures, symlinks, scripts, and build paths.
Update MoltenVK code to use new framework name for headers.
Add symlinks in API-Samples demo to support legacy
MoltenVKGLSLToSPIRVConverter header paths.
In addition to simplifying shader converter code and build management, the
use of only one shader converter framework fixes a race condition within Xcode,
prior to Xcode 12, when multiple targets use the same dependency XCFramework.
