App embedded in Java app

Hi folks I am struggling with following scenario: We have an app implemented in Java (Parent app). From this parent app I would like to call .app that is implemented in Swift (Child app).

We are trying to build package that can be distributed in Appstore using Install4j, partially with success. The app can be validated and distributed in TestFlight, however when we are trying to open child app, nothing happens. The app does not open.

I am not sure if we do correct signing BECAUSE, when we initially distributed the app outside AppStore, Child App was signed with Developer ID Application and it did work correctly.

How should we sign all apps? Is there any other way that we can pack this scenario without using Install4j?

when we are trying to open child app, nothing happens

How are you trying to open the child app? As a child process? Using something like fork/exec*, posix_spawn, or some wrapper around those? Or as a standalone app, for example, using NSWorkspace?
