Can you try again with Xcode 16 Beta 2 that came out recently and let us know how it goes?

I just updated to Xcode 16 beta 3. A very simple Mac app I developed in beta 2 that previewed successfully just prior to the Xcode upgrade has started crashing on preview with the "fatalError in UVJITAgent.swift" message. It builds and runs successfully. It's only a problem previewing the app's one view.

Create empty project with type App in MacOS Sequoia in Xcode 16 beta 3

import SwiftUI
 
struct ContentView: View {
    var body: some View {
        Text("abcdef")
    }
}
 
#Preview {
    ContentView()
}

Preview provides crash :)

Same error. MacOS Sequoia Public Beta + Xcode 16 Beta 3. Every preview crashes after some time and doesn't recover until I close and reopen Xcode.

This is still unresolved as of Xcode Version 16.1 (16B40) and the 16.2 beta.

However, I am not seeing this on all projects. I am noting this specifically on projects which use an XCFramework we are building. It works just fine on-device, but is crashing previews with this JITError.

In our case, it claims that all(?) of the symbols declared in our XCFramework component could not be found.

For our case, we were generally able to get the projects working again by using Legacy Previews Execution, but this is obviously not great.

For a "realistic" example project, see https://github.com/stadiamaps/ferrostar. For a much more minimal project, see https://github.com/ianthetechie/uniffi-starter.

We're tracking this in https://github.com/stadiamaps/ferrostar/issues/344

This is happening with the latest release version of Xcode, v16.2 (16C5032a) and I do not have a test framework installed unlike another example funktional-ee mentioned above. This was a brand new project which has not worked with preview since creating it.
