NSTask not running properly when compiled

HI i have coded an App for Mac OSX that has embedded a Command line tool, the problem is that everything works fine while i am running from the xcode compiler, after build the final product, the app is not working properly and i can see messages like this in the console. Task .<251932> not allowed to create a new connection (existing Connection 224) Task <37752B7F-5827-4160-83C4-773B17AE72DF>.<255990> resuming, timeouts(60.0, 604800.0) QOS(0x21) Voucher (null) i was reading a link posted here but the solution is not working, some ideas are appreciated. My guess is that maybe is something related with a security setting. This is the code: NSTask *task; NSString *executableName = @"websocat"; NSString *executablePath = [[[NSBundle mainBundle] resourcePath] stringByAppendingPathComponent:executableName]; task = [[NSTask alloc] init]; [task setLaunchPath:executablePath]; Quinn “The Eskimo!" please help!

Transporter 1.3 Error

Upon attempting to load an .ipa file from our build system into Apple Transporter 1.3 (newly updated this week from 1.2.5), the following error was presented. This occurs when selecting the file to load (or drag/drop the .ipa file onto the app). Never seen this before and it is unclear what the issue is (and why it might persist for 24 hours) or why it mentioned macOS App. This is an iOS/iPad app (not a macOS app) but the iPad app can be installed on a Mac as many iPad apps can. I had another Mac with the 1.2.5 version of Transporter and the same file was loaded (and then uploaded to the App Store) without a hitch. Does anyone have any idea or has seen something similar?

window.open() does not return a valid object since MacOS14.4

I have the following html that is opened in a WKWebView. <!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta charset="UTF-8" /> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" /> <title>Popup Window Test</title> </head> <body> <textarea id="myTextarea" cols="5" rows="1">Empty</textarea> <script> function openWindow() { const popup = window.open( "https://www.apple.com/", "PopupSample", "width=400,height=400,dialog=yes,dependent=yes,scrollbars=yes,location=yes" ); console.log("Popup closed: ", popup.closed); document.getElementById("myTextarea").value = popup.closed ? "Closed" : "Open"; const timer = setInterval(() => { console.log(popup.location.href); if (popup.closed) { clearInterval(timer); console.log("Popup closed: ", popup.closed); document.getElementById("myTextarea").value = "Closed"; } }, 1000); } </script> <button onclick="openWindow()">Open Window</button> </body> </html> When I click the button and open page "https://www.apple.com/" in another WKWebView, the javascript code does not work as expected here, the popup object returned from window.open() does not refer to the valid window object, and the closed property is set to true even the new popup window is still alive. This is a regression since MacOS14.4 updated, I've reported to apple DTS, but they said it's out of their scope. Does anyone has any clue about this?

Deep Link to Files app

Is there a system deep link URI to the built in files app? I would like to direct users to my apps location in the files app. For example files://myApp The only exposed deep links for system I can find are the ones for mail, sms, FaceTime etc. Thank you (tag used for post was because I couldn’t find a deep link tag)

Trouble parsing JSON data, codable structs

Im making an API call using notions API to access and retrieve data from my Notion page and I'm successfully making the url request and accessing the page, however I seem to be struggling with returning the actual data that I have in that page and parsing the JSON data as right now, my console only outputs the makeup of my notion page rather than the formatted and parsed data. I made a codable struct meant to replicate the structure of a notion page based off their documentation then I'm passing that struct to my JSON parsing function but my data still is not being parsed and returned. heres what I have. import Foundation struct Page: Codable, Hashable { //Codable struct for notion "Page" for defining content aswell as object representation in a codable struct of all the basic components that make up a notion page per notion's documentation let created_time: String let created_by: String let last_edited_time: String let object: String let cover: String let emoji: String let icon: String struct properties: Codable, Hashable { let title: String let dueDate: String let status: String } struct dueDate: Codable, Hashable { let id: String let type: String let date: String let start: String let end: String? //optionals added to "end" and "time_zone" as these values are set to null in the documentation let time_zone: String? } struct Title: Codable,Hashable { let id: String let type: String let title: [String] } struct annotations: Codable, Hashable { let bold: Bool let italic: Bool let strikethrough: Bool let underline: Bool let code: Bool let color: String } let English: String let Korean: String let Pronounciation: String let in_trash: Bool let public_url: String? let annotations: Bool } let url = URL(string: "https://api.notion.com/v1/pages/8efc0ca3d9cc44fbb1f34383b794b817") let apiKey = "secret_Olc3LXnpDW6gI8o0Eu11lQr2krU4b870ryjFPJGCZs4" let session = URLSession.shared func makeRequest() { if let url = url { var request = URLRequest(url: url) let header = "Bearer " + apiKey //authorization header declaration request.addValue(header, forHTTPHeaderField: "authorization") //append apikey request.addValue("2022-06-28",forHTTPHeaderField: "Notion-Version") //specify version per notions requirments let task = URLSession.shared.dataTask(with: request) { data, response, error in if let httpError = error { print("could not establish HTTP connection:\(httpError)") } else { if let httpResponse = response as?

TipKit: "The filter function is not supported in this rule."

Greetings, Working on adding some simple rules to my first TipKit tips. I'm following the example from the WWDC TipKit talk, which included a rule intended to ensure that the user had accessed a particular feature at least three times in the past five days. So it had code that looked like this: #Rule(Self.enteredBackyardDetailView) { $0.donations .filter { $0.date > Date.now.addingTimeInterval(-5 * 60 * 60 * 24) } .count >= 3 I'm trying to do something similar -- essentially, I want to know if the user has been using this feature for at least a day. So I tried this: #Rule(Self.viewedDetails) { $0.donations .filter { $0.date < Date.now.addingTimeInterval(-1 * 60 * 60 * 24) } .count > 0 } i.e., Is there at least one event that was donated more than a day ago? However, Xcode flags the .filter line with the message "The filter function is not supported in this rule." Huh? This smells to me a lot like the limitations that SwiftData has with not being able to do certain kinds of operations in predicates. But this was clearly intended to be supported in the design, since the exact example was shown in the WWDC session on TipKit. So, am I missing something? Is there a different way to structure this so that I can use .filter, or is there some other way of expressing the condition without using filter? I did try using .first { same expression } != nil, but Xcode then said that rules must include a count comparison... Thanks!

Immersive View max tap gesture distance

Is there a maximum distance at which an entity will register a TapGesture()? I'm unable to interact with entities farther than 8 or 9 meters away. The below code generates a series of entities progressively farther away. After about 8 meters, the entities no long respond to tap gestures. RealityView { content in var body: some View { RealityView { content in for i in 0..<10 { if let immersiveContentEntity = try? await Entity(named: "Immersive", in: realityKitContentBundle) { content.add(immersiveContentEntity) immersiveContentEntity.position = SIMD3<Float>(x: Float(-i*i), y: 0.75, z: Float(-1*i)-3) } } } .gesture(tap) } var tap: some Gesture { TapGesture() .targetedToAnyEntity() .onEnded { value in AudioServicesPlaySystemSound(1057) print(value.entity.name) } } }

SwiftUI iOS 17, Xcode 15.3 MapContentBuilder

I consistently get an error that the Map initailizer I'm using is deprecated and I should use a MapContent builder instead. Various errors such as "'MapAnnotation' was deprecated in iOS 17.0: Use Annotation along with Map initializers that take a MapContentBuilder instead." or "'init(coordinateRegion:interactionModes:showsUserLocation:userTrackingMode:annotationItems:annotationContent:)' was deprecated in iOS 17.0: Use Map initializers that take a MapContentBuilder instead." The problem in my code seems to be located here: import SwiftUI import MapKit struct ContentView: View { @State private var region = MKCoordinateRegion( center: CLLocationCoordinate2D(latitude: 34.0522, longitude: -118.2437), span: MKCoordinateSpan(latitudeDelta: 0.5, longitudeDelta: 0.5) ) @State private var restaurants: [Restaurant] = [] var body: some View { Map(coordinateRegion: $region, annotationItems: restaurants) { restaurant in // This uses the updated Annotation API MapAnnotation(coordinate: restaurant.coordinate) { VStack { Text(restaurant.restaurantName) .bold() .foregroundColor(.white) .padding(5) .background(Color.black.opacity(0.75)) .cornerRadius(10) .fixedSize() Image(systemName: "mappin.circle.fill") .foregroundColor(.red) .font(.title) } } The errors persistently occur in the lines immediately below var body: some View { I've been stuck on this for two days now. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

need help updating an app to work on ios 17+

I have an app that needs re-signing/updating to work on ios 17 (ios 17.4.1). I have renamed the IPA file to zip and extracted it to the desktop. The files in the extracted folder are: ItunesArtwork ItunesMetadata.plist Payload folder Payload folder contains the app App package contents contains all the app files, including the _CodeSignature folder. I extracted the package contents to a folder on the desktop. Xcode 15.3 (15E204a) is installed. Need the steps necessary to complete it and generate the new IPA file to test. Thanks all, Ed

Exhausted WidgetKit Timeline Refreshes during Development

I've been developing widgets for an app and have been making frequent changes to the views to try different things out. Maybe I should be using previews for this, but I've been testing on simulators and my iPhone. I've found that after some point, my code all of a sudden stops affecting the widgets on my physical iPhone and on every simulator device, even after restarts of my laptop, wipes of the simulators, etc. And I'm not able to continue development until the next day. It seems like I'm hitting the hard limit for timeline requests in a day, but I feel like that shouldn't apply to simulators or should be refreshed when reinstalling for development? Thanks.

Swiftdata Model crash

I am converting a large core data app to SwiftData and have hit a problem I can't fix, namely code generated by a Model crashing. Here is the model showing the failing expansion. Here is the model containing the inverse for the failing attribute: /Users/writingshedprod/Desktop/Screenshot 2024-05-08 at 20.21.51.png And here is the mass of core data output generated when the app launches. If anyone can make sense of this I'd be grateful. This is where the problem might lie. Debugger.txt

Can a button call a new view without using NavigationStack/Link/View?

Is it possible to switch to a new View without using NavigationStack or NavigationLink or NavigationView? I know I can do it with a Bool, which either shows the second view, or the first, and then toggles the Bool. But can't I do something like this? Which obviously doesn't work. struct BasicButton: View { var buttonLabel = "Create User" var body: some View { Button { CreateUser() //another SwiftUI view, not a function } label: { Text(buttonLabel) } } }

Delayed reports from CMFallDetectionManager

Our watchOS app uses CMFallDetectionManager (with the proper entitlement) to help alert our users and their caregivers when a fall occurs. We have had a simple implementation in our app for a couple of years now and it seems to work fine. Recently, we received a report of delayed fall alerts and have traced back the root cause to a failure from the system to call func fallDetectionManager(_ fallDetectionManager: CMFallDetectionManager, didDetect event: CMFallDetectionEvent, completionHandler handler: @escaping () -> Void) promptly when a fall occurs. Our implementation of this method begins with the following logging statement: "Fall detected at \(event.date) with status \(event.resolution.rawValue) at \(Date())" When we check our logs, we see a number of events that occur as expected, for example: Fall detected at DATE_AND_HOURS:42:09 +0000 with status 1 at DATE_AND_HOURS:42:51 +0000 However, many events show a period of several minutes from fall detection to a report: Fall detected at DATE_AND_HOURS:28:09 +0000 with status 0 at DATE_AND_HOURS:32:42 +0000 or Fall detected at DATE_AND_HOURS:44:26 +0000 with status 1 at DATE_AND_HOURS:48:14 +0000 And in the instance from our customer, we had a fall detected that evidently wasn't reported for 5 hours and 4 minutes (I'm not sharing exact timestamps publicly to maintain user privacy). We are aware of the documentation regarding the delegate and have programmed it appropriately not to receive duplicate events: Additionally, each time the user launches your app, the system checks to see if a fall event has occurred during the recent past. If one has occurred, it calls this method. Note that your app may receive the same event multiple times, for example, if the app crashes and relaunches. Always check the event’s date property to determine whether your app has already received the event. The system guarantees that different fall events have different date values. Moreover, our logger persists logs when there is no network access, and the delegate callback also requests a network post to our servers that, again, is preserved in a background queue until connectivity is restored if it's not available. Our app's other updates (watchOS complication, etc.) from this user's Watch also show that our app was running in the background and communicating with our servers during that time. We have very high confidence that the watch and our app did not miss any more timely calls to that delegate method. While this one five-hour delay was an exceptionally bad occurrence, we also find the other delays of several minutes to be concerning, considering the time-sensitive nature of falls. Does Apple or do any developers have any insights about what's going on and what expectations we should be setting for our users?

Critical VPN Control Issue on iOS Devices: Bypassing 'Connect On Demand' Restrictions

Issue: Our app is currently experiencing an unexpected behavior related to VPN functionality on iOS devices. Despite having the "OnDemandUserOverrideDisabled" parameter set to 1 in our VPN profile, users have reported that they can create a shortcut to disable the "Connect On Demand" feature. However, upon doing so, toggling off the VPN does not re-enable the feature as anticipated. This oversight results in unfiltered browsing, potentially compromising user security and privacy. Explanation: The presence of "OnDemandUserOverrideDisabled" set to 1 in our VPN profile should theoretically prevent users from toggling the "Connect On Demand" feature via any means. However, users have found a workaround using shortcuts to bypass this safeguard. Consequently, the VPN does not automatically re-engage after being disabled, leading to unintended consequences for users. Impact: The inability to reliably control VPN settings, despite profile configurations, poses a significant risk to user data privacy and security. Unintended unfiltered browsing can expose users to malicious actors and compromise sensitive information.

After update to XCode 15.3 can't run app on My Mac (Designed for iPad) - error: attach by pid 'xxxxx' failed -- attach failed

I can run it on the simulators, and directly on physical devices, but not on My Mac (Designed for iPad). The error is: error: attach by pid '33190' failed -- attach failed (Not allowed to attach to process. Look in the console messages (Console.app), near the debugserver entries, when the attach failed. The subsystem that denied the attach permission will likely have logged an informative message about why it was denied.) Checked the log and this is what I found: error 12:44:36.527139-0500 mdbulkimport could not make proxies from uuids in optimized path! Error Domain=NSOSStatusErrorDomain Code=-10814 "Unable to find this application extension record in the Launch Services database."

How is this problem solved?

Recommended approach to generate the Exported Symbols List file

Assuming I have a static library where all global symbols need to be re-exported by the target executable. How do I extract these symbols into a file to be used with ld's -exported_symbols_list and Xcode's EXPORTED_SYMBOLS_FILE? I was thinking about nm -gUjo … + sed but maybe there is abetter way?

TipKit: Change color of TipView close button?

Greetings, I'm dipping a toe into TipKit and trying it out. I placed a TipView into one of my SwiftUI views, and the default styling didn't fit well within our app, so I changed the background and text colors. However, I can't find a way to change the color of the close button ("X"). Unfortunately, the default color is very hard to see against the background color that I selected. Is it possible to set the color of that close button? For the time being, I have created a TipViewStyle that replicates the default styling with my color changes applied, but this seems unnecessarily complex for something as simple as setting the color of that button. Thanks!
