I was just filling the submission for the swift student challenge and there is a note below adding the zip file saying Note: Xcode app playgrounds are run in Simulator. Now my xcode app playground(.swiftpm) is an AR app and needs an ipad or an iphone to run . So will my submission still be eligible for assessment and checked on ipad???

Hello, Is anyone experiencing devices on OS 17 disconnecting from Xcode 15 and 16 Beta? I remember there were a lot of past conversations around the time when iOS 17 released but it seems to still be happening even after using Xcode 16 beta. Re-pairing devices and rebooting the hosts appear to fix it temporarily. I discovered that killing the remoted process also allows xcode to reconnect to the devices. Using Xcode 16's devicectl also doesn't work. I have my devices connected to a USB Hub and to multiple devices. The odd thing is I have iOS 16 devices connected and those don't disconnect. I believe iOS 17 introduced a new coredevice stack to connect but has anyone found a fix for it or have any recommendations? TN3158 isn't relevant in my situation because VPN and Packet filtering is not in use and I filed feedback with Apple but they have't responded in a long time.

Hi Team, I have created multiple certificates for macOS application. Below are the certificates created- Apple Development Certificate DeveloperID Installer Certificate Apple Distribution Certificate others certificates Later, I have imported the all these above certificates in keychain-access. Now, I tried to compile the code through Xcode. I am getting error for code signing certificate. Warning: unable to build chain to self-signed root for signer "Apple Development: Amit (M2WMF2YERI)” .... Command CodeSign failed with a nonzero exit code When I checked the TeamID of User(Amit) I can see that his current TeamID is [P8ZW3W9R2Q]. There is mismatch of teamID in apple development certificate generation. Note- All certificates are generated with current TeamID[P8ZW3W9R2Q] of user (Amit) except Apple Development certificate which has been generated with TeamID [M2WMF2YERI] which is generated with old TeamID of user (Amit). I attempted to generate the apple development certificate multiple times but it is getting generated with old TeamID TeamID[M2WMF2YERI] of user(Amit)
 Summary- While creating a developer certificate using apple developer account and mapping it in keychain, the certificate is being generated with old apple account details (Inactive) instead of the current one. This is causing issues when using the certificate in keychain. If anyone has encountered this issue, how it was resolved?
 Thanks

Hey, I am developing my app in Swift using Xcode for iOS 16 or later. I want to implement the navigation behavior found in apps like WhatsApp or Instagram, where navigating from the feed to a user's profile keeps the tab bar visible. Then, when opening a chat from the profile, a new view appears, leaving the profile view behind along with the tab bar. I have this code as a base to achieve this, but when navigating from View 1 to View 2, it applies the effect that should only happen in View 3. I haven't been able to prevent View 2 from using this effect and limit it only to View 3. Can anyone help me??? import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { @State private var path: [String] = [] // Controls the navigation stack in View1 var body: some View { NavigationStack(path: $path) { TabView { View1(path: $path) .tabItem { Label("View 1", systemImage: "1.circle") } View4() .tabItem { Label("View 4", systemImage: "4.circle") } } .navigationDestination(for: String.self) { value in if value == "View3" { View3(path: $path) // View3 outside the TabView } } } } } struct View1: View { @Binding var path: [String] var body: some View { VStack { Text("View 1 with TabBar") Button("Go to View 2") { path.append("View2") // Adds View2 to the stack } } .navigationDestination(for: String.self) { value in if value == "View2" { View2(path: $path) } } } } struct View2: View { @Binding var path: [String] var body: some View { VStack { Text("View 2 with TabBar") Button("Go to View 3 (Without TabBar)") { path.append("View3") // Adds View3 to the stack } } } } struct View3: View { @Binding var path: [String] var body: some View { VStack { Text("View 3 without TabBar") .font(.largeTitle) .padding() Button("Go Back") { path.removeLast() // Returns to View2 } } } } struct View4: View { var body: some View { Text("View 4 with TabBar") } }

I'm trying to add Assets.xcassets to a .swiftpm project, but I'm getting the warning: ⚠️ Ignoring duplicate build file in build source build phase (Just to know, that is about developing in XCODE, in Swift Playgrounds does not appear it, even in this second being harder to setting up) The problem is that there are no “Build Phases” in XCODE to remove duplicate files manually. I've already tried adding the path of Assets.xcassets in the resources property of Package.swift, like: .executableTarget( name: "AppModule", path: ".", resources: [ .process("Assets.xcassets") ] ) Even so, the warning persists. Does anyone know how to solve this? Is there any way to remove duplicate references or force a cleanup of the Swift Package Manager cache to fix it? I appreciate any tips! 🙏🚀

I don't see a timeline for Xcode16 adoption yet. However, based on past experience, Apple usually provide a deadline by the end of April. Do we have a tentative timeline for Xcode 16 (Apps uploaded to App Store Connect must be built with Xcode 16)? This will help us plan our delivery.

I was just comparing the build settings of two of my apps to try to understand why they behave differently (one of them uses the full screen on iPad, and the other one has small top and bottom black borders, although that's not the issue I want to discuss now). I saw that the option CLANG_CXX_LANGUAGE_STANDARD is set to gnu++0x for the older project, while it's set to gnu++17 for the newer one. The documentation lists different possible values and also a default one: Compiler Default: Tells the compiler to use its default C++ language dialect. This is normally the best choice unless you have specific needs. (Currently equivalent to GNU++98.) If it really is the best choice (normally), why is it not used when creating a new default Xcode project? Or is it better to select a newer compiler version (GNU++98 sounds quite old compared to GNU++17)? Also, does this affect Swift code?

I had a standalone python application (created with pyinstaller) which was working perfectly alone. This macOS application was created in VS. I later decided to improve the application by implementing some Swift features (Subscription Manager). This required me to write a brief Swift file (Subscription Management) in XCode which the Python file called on. Python Standalone Application Calling Swift : # Function to check if the user has a valid subscription def check_subscription(): subscription_manager_path = "/Users/isseyyohannes/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/SubscriptionManager2-ezwjnnjruizvamaesqighyoxljmy/Build/Products/Debug/SubscriptionManager2" # Adjust path try: result = subprocess.run([subscription_manager_path], capture_output=True, text=True, check=True) return "VALID_SUBSCRIPTION" in result.stdout # Return True if valid, False otherwise except subprocess.CalledProcessError as e: print(f"Error checking subscription: {e}") return False # Return False if there's an issue However, when I try to run xcrun altool --validate-app ... I get the following error message. The error reads as follows Running altool at path '/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/SharedFrameworks/ContentDeliveryServices.framework/Frameworks/AppStoreService.framework/Support/altool'... 2025-02-16 11:02:21.089 *** Error: Validation failed for '/Users/isseyyohannes/Desktop/ALGORA Performance.app'. 2025-02-16 11:02:21.089 *** Error: Could not find the main bundle or the Info.plist is missing a CFBundleIdentifier in ‘/Users/isseyyohannes/Desktop/ALGORA Performance.app’.

My usage of TextField.focused() works fine in Xcode 14.3.1 but is broken as of Xcode 15. I first noticed it in the second beta and it's still broken as of the 4th beta. Feedback / OpenRadar # FB12432084 import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { @State private var text = "" @FocusState var isFocused: Bool var body: some View { ScrollView { TextField("Test", text: $text) .textFieldStyle(.roundedBorder) .focused($isFocused) Text("Text Field Is Focused: \(isFocused.description)") } } }

This crash report for one of my apps was downloaded by Xcode. Apparently the app crashed while releasing an object of type Scan.File, which is a Swift class held in an array in the Scan.Directory class. I'm not doing any manual reference counting or low-level stuff with that object. What could cause such a crash? crash.crash

I'm working on a macOS app that I want to give "Full Disk Access". When I run from Xcode, I get "permission denied" errors when reading a file in my home directory. What can I do so that I can run and debug from Xcode? I dragged the binary from the derived data folder to the System Preferences list for Full Disk Access, but that seems to do nothing.

When working on a project, I would like to open a file from a previous project in a side-by-side window for reference, so I can view and adapt parts of the previous file into a file in the current project. I don't want the previous file to be part of the current project. Is this possible? If so, how?

in xcode i have select the developer team. but show some error that is here, "Communication with Apple failed Your team has no devices from which to generate a provisioning profile. Connect a device to use or manually add device IDs in Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles. https://developer.apple.com/account/" and show this error also "No profiles for 'com.kuntaldoshi.homeautomation' were found Xcode couldn't find any iOS App Development provisioning profiles matching 'com.kuntaldoshi.homeautomation'."

I was my understanding that you're supposed to be able to open a .ips crash log in Xcode and see pretty much what you would see if the app had been running in the debugger when it crashed. But the addresses in my app don't get symbolicated. I opened the .ips in the same project and same version of Xcode that was used to create the app. The .dSym file is around, and I can use it to symbolicate using the atos tool. What am I missing?

I am on Xcode 16.2 and running a simulator for iOS 18.2. Previously, I was on Xcode 15.x and running iOS 17.4 sims. This problem did not occur for me on iOS 17.4. Sample code is as follows: import SwiftUI import PhotosUI struct ContentView: View { @StateObject var imagePicker2 = ImagePicker() var body: some View { ScrollView { VStack { Image(systemName: "globe") .imageScale(.large) .foregroundStyle(.tint) Text("Hello, world!") .background(Color.orange) .padding(.bottom, 75) PhotosPicker(selection: $imagePicker2.imageSelection, matching: .images, photoLibrary: .shared()) { Label("", systemImage: "photo") } .font(.system(size: 55)) .padding(.bottom, 55) if let image = imagePicker2.image { HStack { image .resizable() .frame(width:75, height:75) .scaledToFit() .overlay(Rectangle().stroke(Color.teal, lineWidth: 2)) } } } .padding() } } } import SwiftUI import PhotosUI @MainActor class ImagePicker: ObservableObject { @Published var unableToLoad: Bool = false @Published var image: Image? @Published var myUIImage: UIImage? @Published var imageSelection: PhotosPickerItem? { didSet { unableToLoad = false if let imageSelection { //.. try to convert photosPickerItem imageSelection into a uiImage Task { try await setImage(from: imageSelection) } } } } func setImage(from imageSelection: PhotosPickerItem?) async throws { do { if let data = try await imageSelection?.loadTransferable(type: Data.self) { print("got image data") if let uiImage = UIImage(data: data) { print("converted to uiImage") self.image = Image(uiImage: uiImage) self.myUIImage = uiImage } } } catch { print(error.localizedDescription) unableToLoad = true } } } The image loads on the UI but I get "[ERROR] Could not create a bookmark: NSError: Cocoa 4097 "connection to service named com.apple.FileProvider" in the log every time I choose a new photo. So far, I haven't had an actual crash but others have indicated that depending on what they're doing code-wise, that some have crashed. Is this an iOS 18.x bug? Thoughts?

When I try to compile with XCode an app that is about 10 years old gives me the following compiler errors in JSONModel.h header file. There are only 4 lines in that file. Content of file with the error messages. XSym <- Uknown type name ‘Xsym’ 0075 <- Expected identifier or ‘(’ a7b090c047283ff76fc7f1def7ba7425 ../../../JSONModel/JSONModel/JSONModel/JSONModel.h The app was originally compiled wit XCode 3.2, targeting iPhone 7 Now I am using XCode 16, targeting iPhone 12. Original coder is unaccessible. I am very new to this environment and any guidance / assistance is greatly appreciated. Please let me know if it is more appropriate to post this somewhere else.

In Xcode 16.0 and 16.1, it was clear how @Entry macro works from the generated code. If you explicitly specify the type, then defaultValue is a computed property, if you do not specify the type, then a stored property. In Xcode 16.2, @__EntryDefaultValue has been added to the generated code, which Xcode does not want to expand. Visually, it seems that a stored property is generated, but the behavior shows that as a result we have a computed property, and for both options: with an explicit type and without an explicit type. So the question is: what does this @__EntryDefaultValue macro generate and is the result a bug? Or was it a bug in previous versions of Xcode?
