SIGABRT: "abort() called" crash when launching on macOS

[derekantrican]

I've built my application into a macOS app, but upon starting it immediately crashes and I get the following Problem Report:

Crashed Thread:        0  Dispatch queue: com.apple.main-thread

Exception Type:        EXC_CRASH (SIGABRT)
Exception Codes:       0x0000000000000000, 0x0000000000000000
Exception Note:        EXC_CORPSE_NOTIFY

Application Specific Information:
abort() called

(Full output here: https://pastebin.com/083cGfSU)

Any ideas what might be causing this?

I think going into the contents of the app (right click > "Show Contents") then running dotnet MyApp.app/Contents/MacOS/MyApp.dll is able to show me the true exception. I'm going to do a little more testing to verify that what is shown there is truly the problem

Basically, running the command above gave a whole C# exception & stack trace which ended up being due to embedded resources not being found. I am not sure what the issue is with Embedded Resources, but fortunately my code was simple enough to convert them to Avalonia Resources (which didn't have the same problem)
