Some Macs recently received a macOS system update which disabled the simulator runtimes used by Xcode 15, including the simulators for iOS, tvOS, watchOS, and visionOS. If your Mac received this update, you will receive the following error message and will be unable to use the simulator: The com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimRuntime.iOS-17-2 simulator runtime is not available. Domain: com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimError Code: 401 Failure Reason: runtime profile not found using "System" match policy Recovery Suggestion: Download the com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimRuntime.iOS-17-2 simulator runtime from the Xcode To resume using the simulator, please reboot your Mac. After rebooting, check Xcode Preferences → Platforms to ensure that the simulator runtime you would like to use is still installed. If it is missing, use the Get button to download it again. The Xcode 15.3 Release Notes are also updated with this information.

Hi, I'm setting up Xcode and after updating MacOS to 15.2 and Xcode to 16.2, I cannot download the Predictive Code Completion Model. I've done some research and I haven't found any solution, specially since most people suggest that it randomly fixed itself, which for me hasn't been the case. I've tried restarting my Mac, uninstalling and reinstalling Xcode multiple times, I've also reinstalled MacOS from Recovery and haven't found any success (I'm also not running Xcode inside a VM, as I've seen this can cause some problems in this case). This is the error that I receive when I attempt to download the model: And here are the details: The operation couldn’t be completed. (IDELanguageModelKit.IDEModelDownloadAdapter.(unknown context at $11eba9a90).DownloadError error 3.)

I'm new to Xcode and decided to give it a try, however, I'm unable to preview even the default "hello, world" message. I've tried downloading Xcode on the App Store on Mac and from the official website, but I couldn't go pass the "Preparing (Automatic) iPhone Simulator." I've also tried the following line of code on Terminal, but nada: xcrun simctl erase all Here's what I see for almost two hours now (it makes no sense): My system specs: iMac Retina 4K, 21.5-inch, 2019, 3 GHz Intel Core i5 6-Core, Radeon Pro 560X 4 GB, 8 GB 2667 MHz DDR4 (two 4gb core each), 1TB SSD. I've coded way bigger web projects using various applications, but Xcode can't even preview the sample file? Please, help. I would really like to code using Swift. :)

在使用 Xcode 构建项目时，我遇到了以下错误： Showing All Errors Only Prepare packages Prepare build Build service could not create build operation: unable to load transferred PIF: The workspace contains multiple references with the same GUID 'PACKAGE:1Y9CU7L2QFO7OX4UJBYP19ZPPL5MJNV3R::MAINGROUP' Activity Log Complete 2024/12/24, 15:26 0.2 seconds 问题描述： 1. 我正在开发一个使用 Swift Package Manager (SPM) 管理依赖的多模块 iOS 项目。 2. 构建过程中，Xcode 无法加载传输的 PIF 文件，并提示某个 GUID 存在重复引用。 3. 这个问题导致整个项目无法正常构建。 已尝试的解决方案： 1. 检查了 Swift Package Manager 的依赖管理： • 确认没有重复添加相同的依赖。 2. 清理了 Derived Data： 3. 检查了 project.pbxproj 文件，搜索 GUID 'PACKAGE:1Y9CU7L2QFO7OX4UJBYP19ZPPL5MJNV3R::MAINGROUP'： • 没有发现明显的重复引用。 4. 删除并重新添加了所有的 Swift 包依赖。 5. 删除并重新生成了 .xcworkspace 文件。 结果： • 尝试以上解决方案后问题依然存在，构建仍然失败。 • 这可能是由于某些依赖的重复引用或 Xcode 内部的问题。 Xcode 16.2 Mac OS 15.2 如果有人遇到过类似问题或者知道该如何解决，能否分享一下解决方案？ 非常感谢！

Hello, I have a problem with Xcode, in C++ language. When I create a new project, I put my program in a file and click Build. It works correctly and without any problems, but when I enter a second file in the same project and click build, it says build failed. In the log it says, duplicate symbols appear.

Can someone from Apple officially confirm either a delay or cancellation of this feature? 9 days before 2024 ends and Apple said “later this year” in June 2024. Apple mentioned Swift Assist even in the MacBook Pro announcement on the 30th of October 2024 as if it already exists.

Why is Apple not releasing Swift Assist?

The following error occurred when I uploaded the application for distribution in the test flight. After rebuilding, the problem resolved. What was the cause? I recently upgraded the Xcode version from 15.2 to 16.0, and this was my first build, so is it an environmental factor? ITMS-90433: Invalid Swift Support - The file libswifCore.dylib doesn’t have the correct code signature. Make sure you’re using the correct signature, rebuild your app using the current public (GM) version of Xcode, and resubmit it. Don’t just modify the code signature of libswiftCore.dylib.

I’m trying to use the Vision framework in a Swift Playground to perform face detection on an image. The following code works perfectly when I run it in a regular Xcode project, but in an App Playground, I get the error: Thread 12: EXC_BREAKPOINT (code=1, subcode=0x10321c2a8) Here's the code: import SwiftUI import Vision struct ContentView: View { var body: some View { VStack { Text("Face Detection") .font(.largeTitle) .padding() Image("me") .resizable() .aspectRatio(contentMode: .fit) .onAppear { detectFace() } } } func detectFace() { guard let cgImage = UIImage(named: "me")?.cgImage else { return } let request = VNDetectFaceRectanglesRequest { request, error in if let results = request.results as? [VNFaceObservation] { print("Detected \(results.count) face(s).") for face in results { print("Bounding Box: \(face.boundingBox)") } } else { print("No faces detected.") } } let handler = VNImageRequestHandler(cgImage: cgImage, options: [:]) do { try handler.perform([request]) // This line causes the error. } catch { print("Failed to perform Vision request: \(error)") } } } The error occurs on this line: try handler.perform([request]) Details: This code runs fine in a normal Xcode project (.xcodeproj). I'm using an App Playground instead (.swiftpm). The image is being included in the .xcassets folder. Is there any way I can mitigate this issue? Please do not recommend switching to .xcodeproj, as I am making a submission for Apple's Swift Student Challenge, and they require that I use .swiftpm.

In the Xcode 16.2 release notes, it says to avoid a memory leak in Swift 6 you should "Pass -checked-async-objc-bridging=off to the Swift compiler using “Other Swift Flags” in Xcode build settings." https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode-release-notes/xcode-16_2-release-notes#Swift However, when I add this value to OTHER_SWIFT_FLAGS (either in the Xcode build settings interface, or in an .xcconfig file), it yields a build error: error: Driver threw unknown argument: '-checked-async-objc-bridging' without emitting errors. Does anybody know if there's a trick to get this working that isn't explained in the release notes?

Hello! I am attempting to add Subscriptions to an App that Is already published on the App Store. I cannot get Xcode to actually sync what is in my App Store Connect. When adding the Storekit configuration file, I go through the automatic linking process and select the proper bundleID. The configuration file says 'Synced @ [CurrentTime]' however there are no subscriptions listed in there. I have attempted deleting the file several times, creating a new subscription group. With no success. Do I need to publish the subscriptions without the features first? Upon attempting to write the supporting code that will enable these features within the app, I cannot get Xcode to identify that I have these subscriptions. I have also tried pushing these to TestFlight, still with no success. Thank you.

I would like a shortcut for deleting view in swiftui VStack { // long code } How to delete VStack with its ending curly bracket? Thanks

everything works fine in Xcode15, but in Xcode16 it break down. when I add breakpoint, I start po variable , the lldb shows error: type for self cannot be reconstructed: type for typename "$s8XYRouter8RegistryOXMtD" was not found (cached) error: Couldn't realize Swift AST type of self. Hint: using `v` to directly inspect variables and fields may still work. how can I fix the issues!!!. it really mattttttes, and it cause cant developing as normally. pls, save the child.

I'm facing a bug about App Tracking Transparency permission, my app still shows this permission popup before, and that version was still working fine. I don't understand why today it doesn't show the permission popup anymore, is anyone else having the same problem?

I encountered a problem when adding a new custom font in Xcode 16.1. After including the font and opening my XIB files, the interface preview became blank and the application seemed to experience a heavy load. To troubleshoot, I removed all custom fonts, and everything returned to normal functionality. However, even after reinstalling Xcode, the issue persisted when adding the font again. The XIB preview loaded correctly: The XIB preview turned blank and became unresponsive:

I'm working on a cross-platform C# application that converts HTML content to PDF. The goal is to render dynamic HTML pages (including CSS and JavaScript) as high-quality, printable PDF files. Additionally, I need to support features like adding headers/footers, securing PDFs with passwords, and controlling user permissions. While everything works well on Windows, I need some help rendering consistency and handling permissions on MacOS.

I've encountered a strange issue with Swift and I wonder if this is a compiler error or if I didn't understand something correctly. The following sample code shows a weird issue (please ignore that the demo code itself would not make that much sense in this form, it's just the version from a big and more complicated project, where this would make more sense): class Test { var data: [String:[String:String]] = [:] func test() { let setValue: ((String, String, String) -> Void) = { [weak self] key, id, value in if self!.data[key] == nil { self!.data[key] = [:] } let oldValue = self!.data[key]![id] if oldValue == nil { self!.data[key]![id] = value } } setValue("0", "1", "2") } } When changing the "data" dictionary through the closure within the "test()" function, everything works as expected until the "if" condition where the oldValue is checked against nil. If I set a break point to this condition, the Xcode debugger tells me that oldValue is nil (which is expected), but the code within the if condition is NOT executed. The comparison oldValue == nil should be be true (because oldValue is actually nil), but the compiler seems to assume something else. But If I do not user "self!" but instead "self?" then it does work as expected and the code within the if condition is executed. What I am missing here? Is this the correct behavior or a compiler bug?

Is remotepairingd part of Xcode? It seems to be stuck using 119% CPU. This may have started when I recently paired my new Apple Watch with Xcode - or maybe that is a coincidence. The console is full of: error 16:40:26.237601+0000 remotepairingd socket-1: No more data can be received, connection was closed

I'm facing an issue with Swift Playgrounds and files created in Xcode 16. It seems that Swift Playgrounds does not support Swift 6, but even when I create files specifically with Swift 5, Swift Playgrounds still reports that the files are unsupported. This creates a significant problem because macOS Sequoia does not allow me to revert to Xcode 15, which might have offered better compatibility. As it stands, I can't find a solution to work seamlessly between Xcode and Swift Playgrounds. Has anyone else encountered this issue? Are there any workarounds or updates planned to address this compatibility gap? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

I am writing SwiftData app, using a group container. When editing a SwiftUI file, every couple of seconds a dialog - that the app wants to access data from other apps - pops up. It is impossible to edit a view file while Canvas preview is open. If preview is resumed the dialog has to be confirmed twice. Each time the app is started from Xcode, the dialog has to be confirmed again. Any idea, how to stop these boring dialogs?

I am making a framework in C++ using metal-cpp, basically a small game engine. I am also consequently using metal-cpp-extensions provided in LearnMetalCPP to make applications work. For one of my classes, I needed to add AppKit.hpp inside a public header file, so I moved it and its associate headers(NSApplication.hpp, NSMenu.hpp, etc.) from Project headers to Public in Build Phases' Headers, however, it started giving me the error "cast of C pointer type 'void *' to Objective-C pointer type 'Class' requires a bridged cast" at several points in the AppKit headers. They don't appear when AppKit and its associates are in the Project headers, or when they are in the Private headers and no headers import it. I imagined that disabling Objective-C ARC and Using __bridge casts outside of ARC in Build Settings would solve it, but it didn't budge. I imagined it wouldn't involve actively changing the headers would be the answer, but even if I try to put __bridge before the problematic casts, it didn't recognize __bridge. How do I solve this? And why is it only happening in Public and not Project headers?
