NSInvalidArgumentException while running Adobe Air app with native extension on ios

Question

I have compiled ANE plugin with external Obj-C dependencies:

<platform xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/extension/18.0">
    <description>iPhone platform description</description>
    <sdkVersion>8.4</sdkVersion>
    <linkerOptions>
        <option>-ios_version_min 7.0</option>
        <option>-framework Foundation</option>
        <option>-weak_framework AdSupport</option>
        <option>-framework AVFoundation</option>
        <option>-framework AudioToolbox</option>
        <!--option>-framework CoreTelefony</option-->
        <option>-framework CoreGraphics</option>
        <option>-framework EventKit</option>
        <option>-framework EventKitUI</option>
        <option>-framework MessageUI</option>
        <option>-weak_framework StoreKit</option>
        <option>-framework SystemConfiguration</option>
        <option>-framework CoreLocation</option>
        <option>-framework UIKit</option>

        <option>-framework MediaPlayer</option>
        <option>-framework QuartzCore</option>
        <option>-framework CoreImage</option>
        <option>-framework CoreFoundation</option>
        <option>-framework CFNetwork</option>
        <option>-lc++</option>
        <option>-lz</option>
        <option>-lsqlite3</option>
        <option>-lxml2.2</option>
    </linkerOptions>
    <packagedDependencies>
        <packagedDependency>MyStatic.framework</packagedDependency>
    </packagedDependencies>
</platform>

ANE plugin compiles without any exception. When i trying to run sample AIR app on iOS simulator i get this:

$> adt -installApp -platform ios -platformsdk /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneSimulator8.4.sdk -device ios-simulator -package out/production/sample/Sample.ipa

But when i compile ANE plugin without MyStatic.framework and it's dependencies, sample app is running well. Any ideas?

You should show the code that is causing the exception? `setObjectForKey` — Michael, Aug 23 '15 at 06:55
@Michael, i can't provide code causing exception, because this error appears when i'm trying to run app on ios simulator. It is code from ios sdk(or air sdk, what usses ios sdk methods), as you can see from above logs, exception throws from: [__NSDictionaryM setObject:forKey:] [iPhoneSimulator createMetaDataPList:withID:] — Evgeniy Khramkov, Aug 31 '15 at 07:11

I found the solution. Packaged dependency MyStatic.framework have Resources folder, and i copied the entire folder to ios directory for build command adt package -target ane -platform iPhone-ARM -C ios/ . -platformoptions ../build/platformios.xml. When i move all files from ios/Resources to ios/ i was able to run my app without exception.
