Description

The default item inclusion adds a Link metadata on the included items:

The Link metadata specifies the path inside the app bundle for these items, with one caveat: if the value starts with IPhoneResourcePrefix:

then we strip that off the final location.

Example:

• IPhoneResourcePrefix=Resources
• There's a BundleResource resource with Link metadata Resources/myResource.txt
• The final location in the app bundle would be MyApp.app/myResource.txt, because we removed IPhoneResourcePrefix from the start of the path.

In MAUI's case, this is what happens:

• IPhoneResourcePrefix=Platform/iOS/Resources
• There's a SceneTest.scn file in Platform/iOS/Resources/art.scnasset/SceneTest.scn
• This file is automatically included using the glob $(iOSProjectFolder)**/*.scnassets/*, and the Link metadata is %(RecursiveDir)%(FileName)%(Extension) which resolves to Resources/art.scnasset/SceneTest.scn.
• Notice how the Link metadata does not start with IPhoneResourcePrefix, which means the final location in the app bundle is MyApp.app/Resources/art.scnasset/SceneTest.scn, which is incorrect.
