We're looking to get our mature Xamarin Mac application published on the app store, so I've started down the path of finding out what needs to be changed to enable this to happen, and the first step is to attempt to get the app running in 'sandboxed' mode. I've followed this procedure here to the letter:
https://developer.xamarin.com/guides/mac/application_fundamentals/sandboxing/
... but the app still is NOT running as 'sandboxed' (according to Activity Monitor), and it's operation definitely seems normal (i.e. it isn't causing exceptions or problems that I would expect it to cause due to the way we use some local files etc).
One question I have is that in the "Enable the app sandbox" step it instructs "Check both Enable Entitlements and Enable App Sandboxing", however I can't see any "Enable Entitlements" checkbox or option. Is that what I'm missing?
OS and app info:
macOS 10.13.3
VS Community 7.3.3 (build 5)
Xamarin Mac 4.0.0.215
Xcode 9.2 (13772)
Any suggestions as how to work out what the problem is?
Thanks
Mike
