So for my project it's a SwiftUI Project however if I Add '@objc' to expose this instance method to Objective-C it doesn't want it for some reason and the other error code is Argument of '#selector' refers to instance method 'refreshWebView' that is not exposed to Objective-C mainly this is the error I need to fix thanks in advance

this code is what's giving me the error

refreshControl.addTarget(self, action: #selector(refreshWebView(_:)), for: UIControl.Event.valueChanged)

this is for a pull to refresh the page

Could you post a complete sample code to test, not just a single line ?

here you go I sent it over from Mac to here simplified a little but the same thing

import SwiftUI
import WebKit

struct WkwebView: UIViewRepresentable {
let rc = UIRefreshControl()
let w =  WKWebView(frame: .zero, configuration: WKWebViewConfiguration())

func refreshWebView(_ sender: UIRefreshControl) {
        w.reload()
        sender.endRefreshing()
    }

func makeUIView(context: Context) -> WKWebView {
w.load(URLRequest(url: URL(string: "https://www.")!))

rc.addTarget(self, action: #selector(refreshWebView(_:)), for: UIControl.Event.valueChanged)

        w.scrollView.addSubview(rc)
        w.scrollView.bounces = true
} 

func updateUIView(_ uiView: WKWebView, context: UIViewRepresentableContext<WkwebView>) {
    }
}

Structs are not a thing in Objective-C hence why you cannot add @objc to your function.

The "real" solution is to use a Coordinator class to handle this (see makeCoordinator in the documentation.

Two other alternatives to consider:

Create a UIView with the WKWebView and selector inside, or
Subclass WKWebView and add both your refresh control and selector inside

The reason for your troubles is due to your SwiftUI "view" not really being a view, but a representation of what will become your view. The actual view that is rendered on screen may be a different instance. This is where the Coordinator comes in because it it persisted throughout your "view's" lifetime and passed between instances.
