Hello - TLDR - Is there any sample code to demonstrate how one goes about creating dedicated XPCServices to wrap ARM and Intel-specific dylibs? We have an app we're looking at moving to a universal binary. In that same app we have a framework that currently wraps R functionality by directly linking to /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Current . R now has dedicated Intel and ARM builds (https://mac.r-project.org/) After watching the 2020 WWDC session "Port your Mac app to Apple silicon" (https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2020/10214/?time=2006), it sounds like, for us to deploy a universal binary I should look at wrapping the R interaction bits into dedicated ARM and Intel XPC services so the appropriate architecture for R will run. Is anyone aware of any sample code or extended documentation demonstrating the ins and outs of how to think about this? Thank you
