I notice that when I sign code ( the whole app ) I land up with 2 additional items in my /Contents directory in the app bundle.
These items are a folder called _CodeSignature and an alias called CodeResources.


If I delete these two items, the code still identifies itself as signed ( when I attempt to run codesign on it again ).
Also, the app still runs.


I was wondering if these files are meant to remain or if removing them is not an issue ?

On my machine, codesign identifies the signature as invalid if those files are deleted. As it should, since those files spell out what the structure of the .app bundle is supposed to be.


Why are you wanting to go around deleting files from the insides of app bundles? In general, stuff inside an app's bundle should be left alone.
