Please make xCode Swift Package Manager available for MMKV

[SlonGL]

Hey.

I use your library in both iOS and Android. It's great!

There is one small problem.
Not possible, or I didn't find how to install the library using xCode Swift Package Manager.

In many of my projects, MMKV is the only one installed via CacaoPods.

Now I received the Apple Developer Transition Kit, there it is almost impossible to work with CacaoPods at the moment due to compatibility issues. Certain problems arise with dynamic and static additions.

Could the developers add the ability to include the library in iOS projects using the standard xCode Swift Package Manager?

Yours faithfully,
Dzmitry

Hey, I have tried to make MMKV available on SwiftPM. I almost did it until I face this error:

The package product 'MMKV' cannot be used as a dependency of this target because it uses unsafe build flags.

And the so-called 'unsafe flags' is considered safe, just some language configuration.

cxxSettings: [
    .headerSearchPath("."),
    .unsafeFlags(["-x", "objective-c++", "-fno-objc-arc"]),
]

So I'm sorry to tell you that MMKV won't be available on SwiftPM until the Apple guys fix this bug.
You can download & play MMKV with SwiftPM support by yourself on the dev_swiftpm branch.

Now if you can't use CocoaPods or Carthage, I recommend using MMKV by source by adding it as a git submodule.

Hi! It's a pity that it didn't work out. Anyway, many thanks for the quick response and attention. And thanks for your brilliant library. I found a wacky workaround. Not only for MMKV, but also for other libraries like Firebase. Doing "pod install" on a nearby Mac with Intel and Calalina. Then I synchronize ready project with the DTK via the cloud and the project builds normally and you can continue do anything with it. It's funny. :) I just want to make the most of Silicon DTK in my daily work to understand how and what works and get used to possible changes. I hope the cocaopods.org site will resolve the issue of using it on Apple Silicon soon. Their problems are related to the external FFI gem, so there is still no solution since June. Will see. And thanks again! Best reagrds, Dzmitry Sotnikov
