'When build A.framework with B.framework as dependency, B.framework is embed in A or not?

I wanna build A.framework with B.framework as dependency, B.framework is embed in A or not? Which means whether do I need to link B.framework while using A.framework.

How is framework is dynamic and static?

And how is .a?

And how to check it?

Let's if I can answer to the best of my knowledge.

Dynamic vs Static framework.

parameters Dynamic Static
Size of the app small big
loading the framework when needed during launch
applaunch time fast slow
resource files can include cannot include

Now to the question how to set the framework dynamic or static?

In BuildSettings->Search for mach-O as shown in the pic in the link. Buildsettings Image

Now to include the framework B in A. Go to build phases, add B.framework as dependent as linked library. BuildPhases Image

Regarding .a this is static library.

Hopefully this helps!
