I have written a flutter package for local use and I am trying to get the minimum deployment version working so that no devices < 11.0 can use it.
I have set the following in the library using xcode (never sure whether to use xCode or edit the files manually)
And also have edited the libraries ios/<LIBRARY_NAME>.podspec file manually to have the following
s.dependency 'Flutter'
s.platform = :ios, '11.0'
s.ios.deployment_target = '11.0'
When i ran pod install (also tried pub get) in the IOS directory of an app using the library it prints the following
[!] The platform of the target `Runner` (iOS 9.0) may not be compatible with `<LIBRARY_NAME> (x.x.x)` which has a minimum requirement of iOS 11.0.
And I have also set the app to have ios 9.0 (which should error) in the ios/Podfile
e.g.
# Uncomment this line to define a global platform for your project
platform :ios, '9.0'
When I run the app builds, installs and runs fine. I have also tried cleaning the pod cache in between pod installs.
Can somebody explain what I have done wrong or am missing, trial and error isn't really working when the builds are like 5-10 minutes :(
Also I don't really understand what s.platform = :ios, '11.0' is setting in the iOS podspec when there is also deployment_target?
Thanks
