When my app launches, it makes maybe 9 or so network requests to load initial data. It also reads some data from disc. Sporadically, I'm seeing an issue where some of the network requests succeed, but anything involving reading from disc does not load immediately. I'm able to move around in the app, tap buttons, swap tabs, swipe pages, so my main actor isn't stuck. Other data that don't involve disc reading / writing is also blank. About 2 minutes in, suddenly everything loads (both stuff from disc and stuff from the network), nearly instantly, the way it should have done when the app launched. Server logs show more initial network requests succeed than we can see data loaded in the app, and then about 2 minutes later, there's a flood of the rest of the requests which then succeed. The responses to some of these initial network requests cause us to make other network requests, and the sever sees some of those start right away. However, other consequences of these first requests are to touch the disc (to search for manually-cached data), and anything that is supposed to happen after that does not succeed until the 2 minute mark. But what bothers me is some things in the app which don't touch the disc also seem to have successful network requests. I'm seeing it on an iPhone 14Pro running iOS 18.2.1, with 607 GB of disc space available. When I take screenshots of the loading screens in my app during the apparent freeze, the clock in the screenshots are right - they reflect the clock at the moment I took the screenshot, but the EXIF data in all dozen or so images shows the exact second 2 minutes later when the server gets the resulting flood of network requests. Screenshots taken after the freeze is over have exif timestamps that match the screenshots, as short as 5 seconds after the freeze ends. The screenshot file names, though sequential, are out of order. for instance, some screenshots from 12:58 have file names numbered after screenshots taken at 12:59. but not all are out of order. This seems like disc contention has spread outside the app, and is impacting the system writing the images to disc. How do I diagnose a cause for this? How does disc contention affect the networking? I have caching turned off for my network requests. We only have a manual image cache, but I don't know how that would stall the display of data that should fetch and display without attempting to hit the image cache. This happens maybe a couple of times a day for some people, maybe once every couple of weeks for others, but of course, it never when we're trying to debug it.

Hi there The behaviour of using Locale(identifier: "ar") with NumberFormatter.locale appears to have changed between iOS 17 and iOS 18. Is this expected? Steps to reproduce import UIKit func numberFormatter(withlocaleString localeString: String) -> NumberFormatter { let locale = Locale(identifier: localeString) let numberFormatter = NumberFormatter() numberFormatter.locale = locale return numberFormatter } let numbers = 0...9 let localeDigits = numbers let ar_digits = localeDigits.compactMap { numberFormatter(withlocaleString: "ar").string(for: $0)?.first } print(ar_digits) Results The results show: **** numbering system on iOS 17 latn numbering system on iOS 18. iOS Output iOS 17 ["٠", "١", "٢", "٣", "٤", "٥", "٦", "٧", "٨", "٩"] iOS 18 ["0", "1", "2", "3", "4", "5", "6", "7", "8", "9"]

Hello everyone, There is one thing about Objective-C's memory management that confuses me, which is a returned object's lifetime from methods with names doesn't start with "alloc", "new", "copy", or "mutableCopy". Take this as an example, when using NSBitmapImageRep's representationUsingType:properties: method, it returns an NSData object (reference: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appkit/nsbitmapimagerep/representation(using:properties:)?language=objc). While testing this out, the NSData seemed to be an owned object (it doesn't get released until the end of the program). From what I understand, this may be an auto-released object which is released at the end of an autorelease pool block. Could someone explain this in more detail? What if I want to release that NSData object before the end of the autorelease pool block? How can I know which object is autoreleased, borrowed, or owned?

I've noticed that NSTaks has this property as of macOS 14.4 @property (nullable, copy) NSData *launchRequirementData API_AVAILABLE(macos(14.4)) API_UNAVAILABLE(ios, watchos, tvos, visionos); It has no documentation whatsoever. Even google search has no clue. Does this have anything to do with code signature requirements validation? Any explanations and examples would be appreciated!

Prior to 18.x, this has worked for years. However, if a port is included, the behavior in 18.x is to return "///some/path". In all previous versions it correctly returns "/some/path". Is this a bug, or documented change we missed? func relativeURLString(for urlString: String) -> String? { guard var components = URLComponents(string: urlString) else { return nil } components.host = nil components.scheme = nil // WE FOUND IF YOU NIL THE PORT BEFORE HOST AND SCHEME, IT WORKS components.port = nil return components.string }

Hello, I have the app localised to many languages and its variants, like English from Australia or Dutch from Belgium. My phone language is en_UK and the region is configured to ES. I cannot find a way to get the regional language code (ex: en_au, nl_be), it always gets simplified to the language (ex: en, nl), or adds my device region (ex: en-ES, nl-ES). Here I attach some examples while I have the app on en_au Locale.preferredLanguages ▿ 3 elements - 0 : "en-ES" - 1 : "ca-ES" - 2 : "es-ES" Bundle.main.preferredLocalizations ▿ 1 element - 0 : "en" NSLocale.current.languageCode ▿ Optional<String> - some : "en" Locale.current ▿ en_001@rg=eszzzz (fixed en_001@rg=eszzzz) - identifier : "en_001@rg=eszzzz" - locale : "fixed en_001@rg=eszzzz" Locale.autoupdatingCurrent.languageCode ▿ Optional<String> - some : "en" Locale.current.languageCode ▿ Optional<String> - some : "en" Locale.preferredLanguages[0] "en-ES"

how to save the state of my APP when I open another APP so that It can restore when I re-open it? my app will use over 10mb memory so if I open another APP(my app will go background) it will closed at all. when I re-open it it will restart. but I do not want it I want if I open Page A and then it go background and when I re-open it it still is Page A and do not restart.

I've got some materials in an app's bundle (some info.plist values, and some images in .xcassets files etc.) If I access them from within an app extension (a notification service extension, notification content extension for example), then it appears to work. However while running the extensions in the debugger, there were some messages in the console saying the app bundle wasn't loaded. So despite it working, this message made me wonder if its not a safe practice and it working was luck and/or timing etc. and if the materials should instead be duplicated within the extension bundle and obtained from there instead of accessing them from the app bundle?

Hello, we are processing the first network permission request transaction on iOS. We have found that when the CTCellularData is in the kCTCellularDataNotRestricted state and we attempt to perform a network access in the callback function, an exception is reported. How can we resolve this issue? I’ve seen that some solutions on the internet suggest adding a delay of 1 second. Are there any other methods?

I have a class object created dynamically using Runtime, and I want to release some manually allocated memory resources when this object is deallocated. To achieve this, I added a custom implementation of the dealloc method using the following code: SEL aSel = NSSelectorFromString(@"dealloc"); class_addMethod(kvoClass, aSel, (IMP)custom_dealloc, method_getTypeEncoding(class_getInstanceMethod(kvoClass, aSel))); However, I encountered some issues. If I don't call the superclass's dealloc method in the cus_dealloc function, the superclass's dealloc implementation will not be executed. On the other hand, if I explicitly call the superclass's dealloc method, the program crashes. Here is the implementation of the cus_dealloc function: void custom_dealloc(id self, SEL _cmd) { // Release other memory ![]("https://developer.apple.com/forums/content/attachment/c7b0c16b-be23-4776-b8db-f22b661c5e7d" "title=iShot_2025-01-03_19.31.34.png;width=1080;height=1895") Class superClass = class_getSuperclass(object_getClass(self)); void (*originIMP)(struct objc_super *, SEL, ...) = (void *)objc_msgSendSuper; struct objc_super *objcSuper = &(struct objc_super){self, superClass}; originIMP(objcSuper, _cmd); } demo

Context: SwiftUI TextField with a String for simple math using NSExpression. I first prepare the input string to an extent but a malformed input using valid characters still fails, as expected. Let's say preparedExpression is "5--" let expr = NSExpression(format: preparedExpression) gives FAULT: NSInvalidArgumentException: Unable to parse the format string "5-- == 1"; (user info absent) How can I use NSExpression such that either the preparedExpression is pre-tested before asking for actual execution or the error is handled in a polite way that I can use to alert the user to try again. Is there a Swift alternative to NSExpression that I've missed?

We have a sample code that initialises an NSAttributed string with simple HTML code and the result differs massively since XCode 16 and iPadOS 18 SDK. DESCRIPTION OF PROBLEM Since Xcode Version 16.1 HTML content passed into an NSAttributedString is not rendered correctly. Specifically, enumeration characters (such as bullet points or numbers) and the proper indentation for text within list items are missing. As a result, the structure of the HTML content, especially ordered and unordered lists, is not displayed as expected. STEPS TO REPRODUCE A UILabel was added to the view in a new Objective-C project in Xcode. A HTML string containing and Tags was converted into an NSAttributedString (With NSAttributedString::initWithData and NSDocumentTypeDocumentAttribute: NSHTMLTextDocumentType Parameter)within the viewDidLoad method and assigned to the UILabel. Expected Result: The lists should be displayed correctly with enumeration characters and appropriate indentation, as shown in the attached screenshot expected_result.jpeg. Same Code still works as expected using XCode 15.x Actual Result: The list is displayed without enumeration characters or indentation, which matches the attached screenshot actual_result.jpeg. Sample Code NSString *html = @"Es ist wichtig, dass Sie Ihren Arzt informieren:\n<ol>\n\t<li><strong>HIER !!!!!!! </strong>Wenn Sie gegenw&auml;rtig mit Zometa&reg;, dass die gleiche aktive Substanz enth&auml;lt wie Aclasta&reg; behandelt werden.</li>\n</ol>\n\n<ul>\n\t<li><strong>Hier !!!!!!</strong> Wenn Sie Nierenbeschwerden haben oder hatten, denn Ihre Nieren m&uuml;ssen korrekt funktionieren, um das &uuml;berfl&uuml;ssige Aclasta &reg; das f&uuml;r Ihre Knochen nicht ben&ouml;tigt wird, ausscheiden zu k&ouml;nnen.</li>\n\t<li>Wenn sie Medikamente einnehmen, die Kortsion als Bestandteil enthalten (z.

is forKey:fileSize considered accessing non-public API? has your app been rejected at review stage due to this? let resources = PHAssetResource.assetResources(for: asset) if let resource = resources.first { if let fileSize = resource.value(forKey: "fileSize") as? Int { return fileSize } }

Hi everyone, I am wondering under which settings the camera(s) were set by the time they were calibrated. For instance, one aspect that is easy to find is the reference resolution of the images taken when calibrating the intrinsics, this is by retrieving intrinsicMatrixReferenceDimensions. Making sure that the principal point is referenced to the by the time resolution used when the calibration was ongoing. However, recently I saw that there are focusing modes that potentially displace the lens' physical position. Settings like: AutoFocusRangeRestriction: none, near, far setFocusModeLocked: Locks the lens position at the specified value, and sets the focus mode to a locked state. My concern lies the impact this focusing lens displacements can have on the intrinsic matrix parameters, like these parameters no longer describe the camera since the lens position has changed. In simple words, what is the focus 'mode'/'range' the cameras were set when calibrating them for intrnisics?

Hello dear community, I have the sample code from Apple “CapturingDepthUsingLiDAR” to access the LiDAR on my iPhone 12 Pro. My goal is to use the “photo output” function to generate a point cloud from a single image and then save it as a ply file. So far I have tested different approaches to create a .ply file from the depthmap, the intrinsic camera data and the rgba values. Unfortunately, I have had no success so far and the result has always been an incorrect point cloud. My question now is whether there are already approaches to this and whether anyone has any experience with it. Thank you very much in advance!!!

Hi everyone, I’m encountering a crash in my app and need help understanding what’s causing it and how to resolve it.
