v2 (beta) breaks my iOS HEADER_SEARCH_PATHS

[chris-praxis]

ENVIRONMENT
macOS Sonoma (14.4.1)
Xcode 15.3
NS 8.7.0
@nativescript/ios 8.7.1
@nativescript/canvas 2.0.0-beta.21
@nativescript/canvas-three 2.0.0-beta.21

PROBLEM
In "App_Resources/iOS/build.xcconfig" I set HEADER_SEARCH_PATHS (including $(inherited)), which is necessary for my native code. @nativescript/canvas also sets HEADER_SEARCH_PATHS (including $(inherited)) in "node_modules/@nativescript/canvas/platforms/ios/build.xcconfig". I'm guessing this is what causes the problem...

fatal error: 
      'include_path/some_header.hpp' file not found

My native code longer compiles until I manually add headers search paths in Xcode. Setting HEADER_SEARCH_PATHS in "App_Resources/iOS/build.xcconfig" no longer works.

Thank you for reporting, if possible can you submit a small app which reproduces the issue.

Hi @triniwiz,

Test app download is large due to OpenCV: https://drive.google.com/file/d/19Dixw0ktbKdiwG2NF9EaCJ41pXfZnLMW/view?usp=sharing

The error

ios_header_search_test/App_Resources/iOS/src/OpenCV_test.cpp:1:10: fatal error: 'opencv2/opencv.hpp$
#include <opencv2/opencv.hpp>
         ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

is caused by adding @nativescript/canvas beta, but I suspect it is more of a build issue. Although my HEADER_SEARCH_PATHS and the one in the plug-in both include $(inherited), my paths are not in the resulting Xcode project.
