“offloading”

I have been experimenting with different rendering approaches in Metal and am hitting a wall when it comes to reconciling bindless or GPU-driven approaches* with a dynamic scene where meshes can be added, removed, and changed. All the examples I have found of such approaches use fixed scenes, where all the data is fixed before the first draw call into something like a MeshBuffer that holds all scene geometry in the form of Mesh objects (for instance). While I can assume that recreating a MeshBuffer from scratch each frame would be possible but completely undesirable, and that there may be some clever tricks with pointers to update a MeshBuffer as needed, I would like to know if there is an established or optimal solution to this problem, or if these approaches are simply incompatible with dynamic geometry. Any example projects that do what I am asking that I may have missed would be appreciated, too. * I know these are not the same, but seem to share some common characteristics, namely providing your entire g

I need to develop Emergency communication app. This app is not used frequently but it need to start immediately when user need to make emergency communication. If this app is not used for a month, it uninstalled by Offload unused apps feature. Is there way to put a flag into app to prevent uninstall? If application's Info.plist has setting like Preventing offloading unused apps, it would be great to me.

I have offloaded and deleted so much and i the storage does not go down at all. It is at nine gig now and I have absolutely nothing on my iPad. I feel like this is very suspicious. Nothing works to clear it off and Apple‘s excuse is it will go away. It’s not going away it’s getting worse. I have one game that I play along with, Hulu, Facebook and messenger and most of the time I have the circular thing going on on my screen and can’t play the game or watch anything. the iPad is paid for, the service is paid for. Apple, What more do you want?

I was able to reproduce this with our own app as well as with apps by other developers (e.g. Documents by Readdle).Our app stores its data in the app group:Foundation.FileManager.default.containerURL(forSecurityApplicationGroupIdentifier: AppGroupConstants.appGroupIdentifier).appendingPathComponent(File Provider Storage, isDirectory: true)!.appendingPathComponent(Media, isDirectory: true)1) Install the app from the App Store2) Add some data3) Manually offload the app (Settings -> General -> iPhone/iPad Storage -> *App Name* -> Offload App)4) Backup device to iCloud5) Reset device (Settings -> General -> Erase All Content and Settings)6) Restore device from iCloud Backup (this is important - it works with iTunes backups)7) Open the app. Because it was offloaded it gets downloaded at this point but the app group data is NOT restored.This looks like a serious bug to me.Can someone confirm this?

Platform: macOS 12.4, MacBook Pro 2.3GHz Quad-Core i5, 16GB RAM I'm trying to read an OSLog concurrently because it is big and I don't need any of the data in order. Because the return from .getEntries is a sequence, the most efficient approach seems to be to iterate through. Iteration through the sequence from start to finish can take a long time so I thought I can split it up into days and concurrently process each day. I'm using a task group to do this and it works as long as the number of tasks is less than 8. When it works, I do get the result faster but not a lot faster. I guess there is a lot of overhead but actually it seems to be that my log file is dominated by the processing on 1 of the days. Ideally I want more concurrent tasks to break up the day into smaller blocks. But as soon as I try to create 8 or more tasks, I get a lockup with the following error posted to the console. enable_updates_common timed out waiting for updates to reenable Here are my tests. First - a pure iterative approach. No t

If the user offload my app from Settings app (to free up storage) and reinstall it, will the identifierForVendor change?
