The contents of JRE.xcframework (static vs dynamic lib)

Hello,

I have a question about the contents of the xcframework when produced by the build scripts. Typically an `xcframework` contains other `framework`s for individual architectures. However, the way the `JRE.xcframework` is produced is that it contains only binary objects (`libjre_emul.a` for each arch). What is the difference and why does j2objc do it in this particular way?

To my understanding it is creating static instead of dynamic libraries, however what is the reason to not compile into a dynamic lib?


Apologies if this is a too basic of a question.

Best regards,
