Hi, upgraded to Xcode Version 16.3 (16E140) today and now Playground can't execute JSON decoding. The code below is taken from Apple's own JSONDecoder example:

 struct GroceryProduct: Codable {
    var name: String
    var points: Int
    var description: String?
}
 
let json = """
{
    "name": "Durian",
    "points": 600,
    "description": "A fruit with a distinctive scent."
}
""".data(using: .utf8)!
 
let decoder = JSONDecoder()
let product = try decoder.decode(GroceryProduct.self, from: json)
 
print(product.name) // Prints "Durian"

This use to work in the previous Xcode version. Now I get this error:

The LLDB RPC server has crashed. The crash log is located in ~/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports and has a prefix 'lldb-rpc-server'.

This file doesn't exist in the location. I've restarted Xcode and the Mac, same error.

Any thoughts?

Same error here with encode/decode lines, if I comment those lines, the code runs.

I have ask to my colleagues to try this code and some can run, others throw that error. I don't know if maybe Sequoia 15.4 and 16.3/.2 has some in this bug, but the majority where fails has this config.

Is kind of annoying we cannot use playground.

	struct GroceryProduct: Codable {
	var name: String
	var points: Int
	var description: String?
	}

	let json = """
	{
	"name": "Durian",
	"points": 600,
	"description": "A fruit with a distinctive scent."
	}
	""".data(using: .utf8)!

	let decoder = JSONDecoder()
	let product = try decoder.decode(GroceryProduct.self, from: json)

	print(product.name) // Prints "Durian"
