Unable to deploy maui app on ios

[BjoernMSG]

Description

Ive created a simple project which references an another project. The referenced project has no maui-related code so it has "net8" as targetframework. The deployment fails on. I found in the log a error that the "project.assets.json" does not have a target for "net8.0". if i add "net8.0-ios" as targetframework to the referenced project it seems to work.
For android it is fine.

Could you please create an example for how you set up your projects?

Ive created a small demo project:

It builds and deploys fine for me without issue from CLI. Are you doing this from Visual Studio on Windows? VS Mac? Rider?

Im using Rider on a MacOs.

And that is project.json from the library:

We have the same issue for another developer, too

Any news?

This issue seems to be only reproducible using Rider. Created this issue:

I can confirm that this error is not reproducible with version of Jetbrains Rider 2023.3 EAP 9 D Build #RD-233.13945.4, built on January 14, 2024.

I guess this issue can be closed.
