Error creating IOS version to upload to Testflight.

Hi, I want to upload a flutter app to apple store but when I go to Xcode and I make: Product -> Archive
After some minutes of Xcode process I get this error:

Could not find an option named "track-widget-creation".

Run 'flutter -h' (or 'flutter <command> -h') for available flutter commands and options.

In the meantime (in XCode), you can try and go to Runner (Poject) -> Build Settings (Tab), scroll down and set "TRACK_WIDGET_CREATION" = false under "User-Defined"

I'm currently trying that approach myself, as I ran into the same issue today.

flutter run --no-track-widget-creation

seems to work as well

I got this Could not find an option named "track-widget-creation" error too when executing

Not works.

Work around

code $FLUTTER_ROOT/packages/flutter_tools/bin/xcode_backend.sh

  local track_widget_creation_flag=""
  if [[ -n "$TRACK_WIDGET_CREATION" ]]; then
    # Remove the flag
    # track_widget_creation_flag="--track-widget-creation"
    track_widget_creation_flag=""
  fi

how to create archive build with it?

Work around

code $FLUTTER_ROOT/packages/flutter_tools/bin/xcode_backend.sh

  local track_widget_creation_flag=""
  if [[ -n "$TRACK_WIDGET_CREATION" ]]; then
    # Remove the flag
    # track_widget_creation_flag="--track-widget-creation"
    track_widget_creation_flag=""
  fi

Permission denied for saving xcode_backend.sh

Work around

code $FLUTTER_ROOT/packages/flutter_tools/bin/xcode_backend.sh

  local track_widget_creation_flag=""
  if [[ -n "$TRACK_WIDGET_CREATION" ]]; then
    # Remove the flag
    # track_widget_creation_flag="--track-widget-creation"
    track_widget_creation_flag=""
  fi

Permission denied for saving xcode_backend.sh

Then sudo nano $FLUTTER_ROOT/packages/flutter_tools/bin/xcode_backend.sh

This is a weird one that I have been facing for the past few days since updating Flutter.

For me, the solution is to run flutter build ios --release in the project directory, which now fails with several pod errors, but I just ignore those and re-archive in Xcode and it works.

I do not know enough about iOS build tools to know why these things fail. Just that before the newest beta branch version flutter build ios --release worked, now it fails but doesn't mean anything serious, and despite the flutter documentation, I still have to run this command before archiving in Xcode or I get strange errors like this one.

Work around

code $FLUTTER_ROOT/packages/flutter_tools/bin/xcode_backend.sh

  local track_widget_creation_flag=""
  if [[ -n "$TRACK_WIDGET_CREATION" ]]; then
    # Remove the flag
    # track_widget_creation_flag="--track-widget-creation"
    track_widget_creation_flag=""
  fi

While doing this I lost all hot reload capabilities on iOS, so instead of removing completely the flag I tried to just use it on release mode

local track_widget_creation_flag=""
if [[ -n "$TRACK_WIDGET_CREATION" && "${build_mode}" == "debug" ]]; then
  track_widget_creation_flag="--track-widget-creation"
fi

It seems to work so far

@Klauzt

@Klauzt #24239 (comment) should do as well

XCode > Runner Target > Build Settings > Scroll down to User-Defined and deleted all three entries for TRACK_WIDGET_CREATION. Solved it (for me).

@IAmKio

@IAmKio Great!
It works for me too!

Well, I have encountered this issue and I didn't have to do anything either in sh scripts nor Xcode. The only thing I tried was:

From the flutter project root directory, executed the following:
flutter clean
flutter build ios

So in other words don't build your flutter project using Xcode directly because your project might need some commands to be executed(preprocessing) which flutter is doing for you and then it uses Xcode build.

After the build is done go to Xcode and try to Archive your project once again.

P.S: Flutter Version that I am running v1.4.8

@IAmKio Thank you, It works for me too!

Any success about fixing the white screen?

No Success ..

@BRLOKESH

@BRLOKESH Try running 'flutter build ios --release' before Archiving with XCode.

Now Working **Thanks @mobilecheng **
