For the previous few months I have been porting my app from Xamarin to Maui for iOS on Mac. It has been extremely troublesome, principally because of the instruments failing or not working as marketed.
Proper now I feel I am on the house straight however I am going through what appears to be the hardest drawback of all.
My app has a Shared Extension that works in debug mode, however not in launch mode. When operating in launch mode (which takes round 20-30 min to compile), after I click on on the my app’s icon within the shared apps panel, the panel goes gray momentarily earlier than returning to its regular color, however the view that I’ve created would not seem.
I am undecided the place to go together with this.
- Breakpoints will not work as a result of it is not debug and even in debug mode they do not work in extensions
- I’ve double checked provisioning and it is all right (precisely the identical as what I used to be utilizing for Xamarin)
- I’ve checked my entitlements, share teams and bundle names, all are right
- I’ve tried setting debug remarks to the clipboard, however SharedExtensions do not assist clipboard entry
On condition that it really works in debug and works in manufacturing in Xamarin, I am assuming it is a configuration drawback relatively than a code drawback. As such the next information could also be guilty (?):

What can I do to debug this? It is an extremely troublesome drawback to resolve, particularly given the 20-30 min compile occasions which suggests I can solely check out 2 or 3 totally different trouble-shooting makes an attempt per hour, making it laborious to make significant progress.
Any concepts could be a lot appreciated.
