I find that upload an OS X Application to the App Store is a very cryptic, complex and... almost imposible task.

I find that upload an OS X Application to the App Store is a very cryptic, complex and... almost imposible task.

Anyone has experience with this task an can/want help me?

We can agree on a compensation or a collaboration of some other type.

Help me, please!

  1. I have to assume you have a developers account because that is the only way you will be allowed to upload an app for review by Apple.

    What seems to be your issues ?

  2. I'm not submitting to the app store but I did spend all day yesterday trying to figure out how to sign an app that works with the default gatekepper behavior in yosemite.  I could not get XE8 to properly sign the app.  I still don't know why since PAServer reports no issue and the app just isn't signed.  I put the property cert name in the provisioning settings of the project.

    A few notes of interest that might help others:

    Let's assume your app is called "sample.app"

    to verify your app is signed you can do this

    codesign -dvvv sample.app

    2. I used the codesign command line app to sign my delphi app.  You have to do it in two steps because you have to sign the libcgunwind.1.0.dylib that is embedded in your app first.  This may be your issue with the mac store?

    codesign -f -v -s "Developer ID Application: your name" "./sample.app/Contents/MacOS/libcgunwind.1.0.dylib"
    codesign -f -v -s "Developer ID Application: your name" "./sample.app"


    I tried to use the productbuild command line to build a pkg and sign it.  it built the pkg and it executed correctly, but the app did not show up in my /Applications folder.  

    I tried to do it this way:

    productbuild --component "sample.app" /Applications --sign "Developer ID Installer: your name" sample.pkg

    I finally stumbled across a very useful GUI for building packages and it works.  I still don't know why my command line pkg doesn't work.
