Fix Archive for publishing when .NET MAUI references to own .NET Core project

According to this article, I completed all steps except "Publish the app", because when I right click on .NET MAUI project and select "Archive for publishing" and get the error with text "Assets file '.../ClassLibraryDotnetCoreProject/obj/project.assets.json' doesn't have a target for 'net8.0-ios'. Ensure that restore has run and that you have included 'net8.0-ios' in the TargetFrameworks for your project". The problem is that Class Library, which is .NET Core 8.0 project, cannot have target for "net8.0-ios". How to fix this, but save this separated .NET Core project? I also can change its type to .NET Standard but I don't think that it can correct this problem

I use VS for Mac with the latest updates

    Hello,

    Please create a .NET MAUI Class Library, you can open the class library 's csproj file. And you can find the <TargetFrameworks> like following code.

    <Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk">


   <PropertyGroup>
        <TargetFrameworks>net8.0-android;net8.0-ios;net8.0-maccatalyst</TargetFrameworks>
        <TargetFrameworks Condition="$([MSBuild]::IsOSPlatform('windows'))">$(TargetFrameworks);net8.0-windows10.0.19041.0</TargetFrameworks>

    You can try to create a .NET MAUI Class Library . Next, MAUI project add reference to the .NET MAUI Class Library. Release this MAUI project.

    Best Regards,
