Xcode 16.2: build fails with errors from another project
When I thought Xcode could not get any worse, here's the most absurd thing I have ever seen developing software in almost 20 years of work. When building a project, which I haven't touched lately, and last time it was building just fine, it raised errors on a class that doesn't even belong in any way to such project, it only exists in another one. To clarify, we're talking of a project written in C++ which runs only on mac, which is failing due to linker errors, where the linker can not find symbols of a class living in a different project and that is not referenced in any way inside this project. I mean, really? how does Apple manage to make Xcode more and more unstable by the minute? Starting from Xcode 15.1 I was already experiencing much longer building times, due to the fact that it doesn't manage the cache properly and is rebuilding lots of stuff every time..

Does Xcode force to download latest iOS simulator after update?
I have Xcode on my mac. I am iOS Dev. I do not know what version of Xcode was before I did next steps, but I could say that I had iOS Simulator 18.3.1. So I update my Xcode to Version 16.3 (16E140). At this version is available iOS Simulator 18.4. But from some time before Xcode separate downloading components and actual Xcode itself. So i make update and do not download latest iOS simulator. What i have: in Xcode -> Settings -> Components under " Other Installed Platforms" i have iOS 18.3.1 and 17.5 in Choose Destination dropdown menu i have nothing. And Xcode say me that i need install iOS Simulator. After some time with ChatGPT I could not do nothing from this. I try go to : Window -> Device and Simulators and here create new simulator with 18.3.1 and make it appear Always. But it didn't help. Solution I did: I download latest version 18.4 because i could not wait because i need fix bug only 1 hour shift and it was this hour so i fast download the simulator. After downloading 18.4 in Choose Destination dropdown it appears all versions of simulaors and 18.3.1 and that i created and 17.5 Question: Does Xcode force to install latest version of iOS simulator? What is the sense of this upgrade that now Xcode is updating faster because it download 8 GB not 16 if eventually I need download 8 GB again ? The new what i could do download Xcode in the evening and Simulator in the morning?

Icon dark mode not working on iPadOS
I updated the icons in Xcode to customize the appearance of my app icons to be light, dark, or tinted. The app is allowed to be downloaded and run on iPadOS. The app icon behaves as expected on iOS however the app icon does not change on the iPad. Am I missing a step for the iPad? To be clear the app does not target iPadOS rather it is just running the iOS version. Thanks kof

Distribution and Apple TV Question
Hi, This maybe somewhat confusing, but please bear with me. I currently have an app in the App Store that supports iOS and tvOS. But the tvOS version was a separate app during the development process. I'd like to combine the iOS and tvOS app into one project so its easier to handle and keep track of internally. Can I upload the new Apple TV version to the same place where the current one is, or would I have to delete the current Apple TV version before uploading the newly combined version? I hope I made that clear enough :-) Thank you, Dan Uff

C++ Binary Size Increase in Xcode 16 Compared to Xcode 15
I've recently upgraded my project from Xcode 15 to Xcode 16. Without changing any build settings or compiler flags, I noticed that the final executable size has increased significantly when building the same C++ code. Investigation: To investigate further, I compared the Link Map outputs from both versions of Xcode. One key difference I found: The symbol size for std::sort increased from 4,336 bytes (Xcode 15) to 6,084 bytes (Xcode 16) – a ~40% increase. This seems to be part of a broader trend where other standard library symbols are also taking up more space in the binary when built with Xcode 16. Questions: Has Apple Clang or libc++ in Xcode 16 changed the implementation of STL algorithms like std::sort? Are there changes in inlining, template instantiation, or debug info that could explain the increase? Is this expected behavior? If so, is there any guidance on minimizing the binary size regression?

Can DocC be used to abstract out lines of comments?
I'd like to point to comments about my code from outside the coding file to keep the code easier to read, but still have the comments show in Xcode's Quick Help. I've grown to appreciate lengthier comments, including Examples for demonstrating values that explain what calculations are doing. My DocC formatted comments have quickly reach 25 lines and some would benefit from even more lines than that, which I do not want to bloat my code files with. I have tried to find a way to abstract these lines into a .docc file that references the given property, and the following markdown successfully shows this when I run Build Documentation. However, clicking on this property fails to show any comments in Quick Help, even though they did prior to my moving them to an .md file. Unfortunately, I'd prefer reading these in the future in Quick Help over Xcode's Developer Documentation Window. I haven't used markdown in decades, so I'm hoping I'm merely making a markdown mistake someone can find below. For reference, InvItem is a SwiftData Model and circularDepletionArcValue is the property failing to show in Quick Help after the following got moved to a .docc file, but had previously shown in QuickHelp, and still does compile within Developer Documentation. `# ``InvItem/circularDepletionArcValue`` A computed property that determines the fill percentage of a circular arc based on the number of days until the inventory runs out. ## Overview The calculation follows these rules: - Returns 0.01 (minimum visible value) for less than 1 day - Returns 1.0 (full circle) for more than 11 days - Returns a proportional value between 0.1 and 1.0 for 1-11 days ## Examples ```swift let item = InvItem() item.daysTilRunOut = 0 item.circularDepletionArcValue // Returns 0.01 item.daysTilRunOut = 5 item.circularDepletionArcValue // Returns 0.5 item.daysTilRunOut = 12 item.circularDepletionArcValue // Returns 1.0

iPhone Doesn't Support App's Architectures (SwiftPM)
Hi, after recently upgrading Xcode to the latest version, I encountered a new bug that prevented me from building the app on my iPhone. Puzzlingly, the app still builds and runs fine on a simulator. Because I am working with a Swift Playground file, the option is not available to simply change the architecture setting. I found a similar setting within the Schemes, but after trying a combination of different architecture settings, the app still doesn't build properly. I noticed the BuildAction seemed to be changing, so I believe that the setting was properly affecting the Architecture setting. Even with a separate dummy test project (SwiftPM), I still ran into the same issues. I updated my iPhone OS to the latest version as well after initially encountering the bug. I'm wondering if anybody is running into the same issues, and if any solutions have been found.

In-App Purchase Popup Dialog Not Appearing
Hi - I've added in-app purchases (Quarterly and Yearly ) to my app and submitted it for TestFlight. The app is available, but in my Developer account, the in-app purchases section still shows the products as 'Waiting for Review.' When I test the app for in-app purchase, the dialog does not appear. Is this issue of "Approval" of the in-app purchase product? If YES, how can I get approval for these in-app purchase products? FYI: I have attached a screenshot of the in-app purchase products. Please suggest Thanks, Sushil

Code Coverage not showing properly?
I have an old Xcode project that I am adding tests to, and at a high level I see the code coverage percent (the 2.2% number). However, in the detail view, code coverage only shows on the testing bundle, not in the main app bundle. Anyone have any tips on how to fix this?

For reference, InvItem is a SwiftData Model and circularDepletionArcValue is the property failing to show in Quick Help after the following got moved to a .docc file, but had previously shown in QuickHelp, and still does compile within Developer Documentation. `# ``InvItem/circularDepletionArcValue`` A computed property that determines the fill percentage of a circular arc based on the number of days until the inventory runs out. ## Overview The calculation follows these rules: - Returns 0.01 (minimum visible value) for less than 1 day - Returns 1.0 (full circle) for more than 11 days - Returns a proportional value between 0.1 and 1.0 for 1-11 days ## Examples ```swift let item = InvItem() item.daysTilRunOut = 0 item.circularDepletionArcValue // Returns 0.01 item.daysTilRunOut = 5 item.circularDepletionArcValue // Returns 0.5 item.daysTilRunOut = 12 item.circularDepletionArcValue // Returns 1.0

iPhone Doesn't Support App's Architectures (SwiftPM)
Hi, after recently upgrading Xcode to the latest version, I encountered a new bug that prevented me from building the app on my iPhone. Puzzlingly, the app still builds and runs fine on a simulator. Because I am working with a Swift Playground file, the option is not available to simply change the architecture setting. I found a similar setting within the Schemes, but after trying a combination of different architecture settings, the app still doesn't build properly. I noticed the BuildAction seemed to be changing, so I believe that the setting was properly affecting the Architecture setting. Even with a separate dummy test project (SwiftPM), I still ran into the same issues. I updated my iPhone OS to the latest version as well after initially encountering the bug. I'm wondering if anybody is running into the same issues, and if any solutions have been found.

In-App Purchase Popup Dialog Not Appearing
Hi - I've added in-app purchases (Quarterly and Yearly ) to my app and submitted it for TestFlight. The app is available, but in my Developer account, the in-app purchases section still shows the products as 'Waiting for Review.' When I test the app for in-app purchase, the dialog does not appear. Is this issue of "Approval" of the in-app purchase product? If YES, how can I get approval for these in-app purchase products? FYI: I have attached a screenshot of the in-app purchase products. Please suggest Thanks, Sushil
