Re: [cbi-dev] Issues with Mac Signing

[Thanh Ha <thanh.ha@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Gunnar,

The signing service will sign the whole folder. The service is a macosx box that will sign any *.app zipped directory you send it. So basically the macsigner-plugin just zips up a directory that's specified in the config and sends it to the signing service.

The server side code for the signing service can be found here:
   http://git.eclipse.org/c/cbi/signing-service.git/tree/macsign.php

Basically it's just a mac system that unzips a zip folder and runs codesign -s cert -f some.app

So I guess we need to figure out what configuration we need to setup in the Mac.app folder that would exclude signing certain things that are included in the gyrex.app directory if we are using the settings that places everything inside the *.app directory.

I think I figured out the problem (see my diff below). I think it's a
Tycho configuration issue. The declaration of "<rootFolders>" as
Gyrex.app made Tycho make that the root directory and then put
everything inside of it which I guess caused the archiving to not look
correct.

I suspected it's something like that! So this is interesting because the ".app" <rootFolders> modification is required to make the whole bundle to really look like a MacOS application bundle, i.e. when I extract the archive on Mac, there is no longer a folder with an executable underneath it but only a "Gyrex" application with a nice icon that I can simply drag and drop to an applications folder.

I wonder if it's possible to sign the whole folder...
