Maui.Facebook.Core.iOS

Bindings for the Facebook (Meta) iOS SDK core module

https://github.com/facebook/facebook-ios-sdk
frameworks: FBSDKCoreKit, plus its load-time dependencies FBSDKCoreKit_Basics and FBAEMKit
changelog: https://github.com/facebook/facebook-ios-sdk/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md

Most consumers want the cross-platform wrapper, Kebechet.Maui.Facebook.Core, rather than this binding directly.

Versioning Scheme

The version is derived from the native package: <native>.<binding-rev>.

Native lib version	Maui.Facebook.Core.iOS	Note
18.1.1	18.1.1.0	First binding of 18.1.1
18.1.1	18.1.1.3	Binding of 18.1.1 with 3 binding-only fixes

Binding creation

A curated binding, not a Sharpie dump

ApiDefinitions.cs is written by hand against the headers shipped inside nativelib/FBSDKCoreKit.xcframework. FBSDKCoreKit exposes 220 headers; the wrapper needs three types:

Bound type	Source header	Notes
`FBSDKAppEvents`	`FBSDKAppEvents.h`	`shared`, `anonymousID`, `userID`, `logEvent:`, `logPurchase:`, `activateApp`, `flush`
`FBSDKSettings`	`FBSDKCoreKit-Swift.h`	Swift `Settings`, published as `@objc(FBSDKSettings)` - plain runtime name, no `_TtC…` mangling
`FBSDKApplicationDelegate`	`FBSDKCoreKit-Swift.h`	Swift `ApplicationDelegate`, same

FBSDKAppEventName / FBSDKAppEventParameterName are typedef NSString * and bind as string.

Binding only what is used keeps the file reviewable, keeps it buildable on Windows (Objective Sharpie is macOS-only) and turns a native bump into "swap the frameworks and rebuild".

Getting the frameworks

Each release of facebook-ios-sdk publishes per-kit *-Dynamic_XCFramework.zip assets. Download three: FBSDKCoreKit, FBSDKCoreKit_Basics, FBAEMKit (scripts/bump-ios.sh does this). An app that embeds only FBSDKCoreKit crashes on launch with an image-not-found for the other two.

⚠️ Slimming the xcframeworks (177 MB → 21 MB)

From each .xcframework remove:

the ios-arm64_arm64e_x86_64-maccatalyst slice - Catalyst is a no-op stub in the wrapper, and that slice uses the macOS bundle layout with symlinks that Windows cannot check out
every *.swiftmodule directory
every *.dSYM directory (debug symbols; also cause NU5123 long-path warnings)
_CodeSignature directories

then remove the Catalyst entry from the xcframework's Info.plist (AvailableLibraries), or the bundle no longer matches its manifest and is rejected.

Build

The binding builds and packs on Windows - bgen runs there and the frameworks ship as lib/net10.0-ios/*.resources.zip. Only running it needs a Mac; CI builds the demo for the iOS simulator on macOS.
