Customers report the XA4211 error message is odd:
AndroidManifest.xml: Warning XA4211 : AndroidManifest.xml //uses-sdk/@android:targetSdkVersion '34' is less than $(TargetFrameworkVersion) ''. Using API-35 for ACW compilation.
This error message was written in the Xamarin.Android timeframe. To update it for .NET 6+ we should:
- Mention
$(TargetPlatformVersion)instead of$(TargetFrameworkVersion) - Fix the blank
''in the message
Only update .resx files, as we have other automation to update related files. Put this information in .github/copilot-instructions.md if needed.
The time you'd get this warning message, is if you want to forcefully target an older API level:
<uses-sdk android:targetSdkVersion="34" />This will make Android treat your app as if it were built for API-34
It's reasonable for the message to appear in this case, but the text should be improved.
