'gtest/internal/gtest-port-arch.h' not found building Xcode project after including gtest.h

[FlashSheridan]

After adding #include "gtest/gtest.h" to main.cpp as instructed in Primer.md, in an Xcode project set up as in XcodeGuide.md (with corrections, e.g., as in bug #951), compilation fails with

error: 'gtest/internal/gtest-port-arch.h' file not found.

This seems to be because gtest-port-arch.h is missing from https://github.com/google/googletest/blob/master/googletest/xcode/gtest.xcodeproj/project.pbxproj, though, e.g., gtest-port.h is present. The entire directory Headers/internal/custom seems to be missing as well.
After correcting both the above omissions by manually copying the files into the framework, compilation succeeds, though linking fails for testing::internal::StringStreamToString(std::__1::basic_stringstream<char, std::__1::char_traits, std::__1::allocator >*).

Here’s more of the compilation error message:

I'm wondering if there are long term plans to support macOS. Could a maintainer of the project speak to that?

[imadsco]

did you get a fix to that ?

[skeid21]

FlashSheridan mentioned this is an issue with header copy phases for the generated framework. You can adjust the header copy phases to pull in the missing headers.

I also think you can re-run CMake to generate the Xcode project as well.

#725 got merged yesterday to master, maybe this fix the issue.
Can anyone confirm this?

I have been cleaning up older and inactive GitHub googletest issues. You may see an issue "closed" if it appears to be inactive/abandoned
Thank you
