After updating to Xcode 16.3, getting the error - Symbol not found: ___cxa_current_primary_exception
It didn't happen with Xcode 16.2 that I used before, but after updating to 16.3, when I build the app, the following error is output to the console and the app doesn't run. dyld[2150]: Symbol not found: ___cxa_current_primary_exception Referenced from: <6B00A4F2-B208-3FDB-BA38-B7095AF0034A> /private/var/containers/Bundle/Application/B590DB18-9C66-4C9E-8330-104943419E60/Mubeat DEV.app/Mubeat DEV.debug.dylib Expected in: <7F51CB08-A0CA-386E-BB62-4B8BFB0CED9F> /usr/lib/libc++.1.dylib Symbol not found: ___cxa_current_primary_exception Referenced from: <6B00A4F2-B208-3FDB-BA38-B7095AF0034A> /private/var/containers/Bundle/Application/B590DB18-9C66-4C9E-8330-104943419E60/Mubeat DEV.app/Mubeat DEV.debug.dylib Expected in: <7F51CB08-A0CA-386E-BB62-4B8BFB0CED9F> /usr/lib/libc++.1.dylib dyld config: DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/system/introspection DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES=/usr/lib/libBacktraceRecording.dylib:/usr/lib/libMainThreadChecker.dylib:/usr/lib/libRPAC.dylib:/Developer/Library/PrivateFrameworks/DTDDISupport.framework/libViewDebuggerSupport.dylib After looking for another solution, I found a way to remove the -Objc option in Other Linker Flags, but this method only works on iOS 18.4 and doesn't work on other versions. Is there another solution?

Is it possible to view Xcode output from a scheme's archive post actions's script
In Xcode I've: select Product / Scheme / Edit scheme tap on Archive on the left hand side of the select post actions and + to add a new script Then in there I have added a script I want to run on the archive after its created. I'd like to be able to see the output the script churns out as it goes along but doesn't seem possible? If I just add something like echo "hello" to the start of the script then I don't see "hello" visible anywhere when I build an archive (via Product/Archive). I'm looking in the build navigator. Is there somewhere else to look or is it possible to get the logging into the navigator?

Tabbar UITest bug on tvOS
When running UITests on tvOS, tabBar viewIdentifiers (UIKit) are no longer appearing. When you run the test, accessibility identifiers for tabs are no longer locatable but all other identifiers appears except for the tabs in the tabBar. In the stack trace of the debugger, if I print application, I can see all existing viewIdentifiers except those that were set for the tabs (on tvOS only). If I force an action on the simulator after the app has launched and the view appeared ie move left or right, the identifiers appears (confirmed by stack trace) and the test will continue as expected. This was not an issue in the past (no code changes). I am not sure if this appeared after updating my mac to Sequoia. But for iOS, there is no issue. This bug only appears on tvOS and specifically the tabs. Issue persists on: Sequoia 15.4.1 Xcode 16.3

Xcode 16.0 iOS 12 support
We are preparing builds using Xcode 16.0 given we have a large set of users on iOS 12. Now we have doubts wether we will run into issues if we ship using it (even if it compiles, archives and uploads successfully) given the table columns and content has changed since the last time we checked this table: https://developer.apple.com/support/xcode/. 1- Is the Deployment Targets range for Xcode 16 value correct for iOS? (On the 24th of February it had iOS 12-18, now it has iOS 15-18) 2- Are we OK to ship for iOS 12 using xcode 16.3? Thanks, Joao Garcia

Xcode Simulator Can't Boot
I am facing a recurring issue with Xcode iOS simulator. I want to preview a SwiftUI for iOS in Xcode, but the Simulator app fails to boot up. I receive the follow error in Xcode: Cannot Preview in this file. Simulator was shutdown during an update. I have tried the following: Deleting Xcode cache Reinstalling iOS Simulator runtimes Completely uninstalling Xcode and deleting all developer data, then reinstalling None of the above steps fix the problem. The only fix I have found is to completely reinstall MacOS 15.4.1. THIS IS TERRIBLE! I have already reinstalled MacOS 15.4.1 once to fix the issue, and I don't want to do it again. If there is another solution, please help me find it! Thank you!!

run XCUITest with an SKStoreReviewController
I'm building out a number of XCUITests. At one stage in my app, we present an SKStoreReviewController to ask the user if they'd like to review the app now. All I'd like to do is dismiss the view, by hitting the "Not Now" button. Normally, for other "system" views, I'd something like this: let springboard = XCUIApplication(bundleIdentifier: "com.apple.springboard") let notNowButton = springboard.buttons["Not Now"] And then I'd do an appropriate 'wait' and tap action. But for some reason, this isn't working. Looking for advice on how to properly handle this screen.

Invalid Swift Support - The SwiftSupport folder is missing
Hi When attempting to upload a React Native app (version 0.77) we encountered the following error: ITMS-90426: Invalid Swift Support - The SwiftSupport folder is missing. Rebuild your app using the current public (GM) version of Xcode and resubmit it. If to check ipa folder we can see that content includes only 2 folders: Payload Symbols Could you please tell us why it does not include Swift Support folder? We tried to use XCode - 16.2 and 16.3 Thank you

Testing/debugging QLThumbnailProvider on macOS
I'm implementing the 'new' QLThumbnailProvider for our macOS app... So I just created the skeleton from Xcode, added our QLSupportedContentTypes in Info.plist, and have the skeleton code like below: import QuickLookThumbnailing class ThumbnailProvider: QLThumbnailProvider { override func provideThumbnail(for request: QLFileThumbnailRequest, _ handler: @escaping (QLThumbnailReply?, Error?) -> Void) { // cannot trigger break point here! } I understand I should test the Thumbnail Extension by using: $ qlmanage -t my_file.ext Testing Quick Look thumbnails with files: my_file.ext But I don't know what process to attach to in the Xcode debugger... a bit clueless... I've skimmed relevant parts of https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2019/719, but there is no real debug tips... Does anyone know if it is possible to debug with Xcode or not? And if possible, then how? 😅

Why can't Xcode projects be opened in multiple workspaces
So Xcode has projects. And I breakup my code/libraries/targets into those. So why after 20 years of Xcode, can a workspace, that holds projects not display the same project opened in another workspace? The workspace redirects all output the project would normally generate in DerivedData to a completely different folder by default. What this means is I have to shut one workspace, and then open the other workspace with a different set of projects to see the ones that are shared. The workspace can't build because it can't open the project shared with another one that is open. VS sln files don't have this issue, so why do workspace files.

Previews globally fail with CouldNotLoadInputObjectFile error
Whenever I try to use SwiftUI previews, the preview fails with a CouldNotLoadInputObjectFile error like this: == PREVIEW UPDATE ERROR: FailedToLaunchAppError: Failed to launch com.my-company.Test | ================================== | | [Remote] CouldNotLoadInputObjectFile: Could not load object file during preview: /Users/me/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/Test-dzmdthicvcbuwkawncuacsomcdcd/Build/Intermediates.noindex/Test.build/Debug-iphonesimulator/Test.build/Objects-normal/arm64/TestApp.o | | | | path: /Users/me/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/Test-dzmdthicvcbuwkawncuacsomcdcd/Build/Intermediates.noindex/Test.build/Debug-iphonesimulator/Test.build/Objects-normal/arm64/TestApp.o | | | | ================================== | | | [Remote] XOJITError | | | | | | XOJITError: '/Users/me/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/Test-dzmdthicvcbuwkawncuacsomcdcd/Build/Intermediates.noindex/Test.build/Debug-iphonesimulator/Test.build/Objects-normal/arm64/TestApp.o': No such file or directory It appears that the preview process cannot find the compiled .o files. However, when I check in Finder, the files do exist and normally running the app works fine. It is noteworthy that this is independent of the XCode project or view I try to preview. It is a global issue on my system. Previews not even work when I create a blank new SwiftUI project in XCode. I tried deleting all caches, derived data, preview caches etc. But without any effect. I have this in XCode 16.3 as well as in 16.4 RC. On macOS Sequoia 15.4.1 on a MacBook Air M4. Does anybody have an idea what might be causing this?

Simulator failing to recognize bundle ID
Hi all, I'm learning how to make iOS apps this weekend and I've failed to resolve the following issue. Here's important data regarding my xcode build: On my apple developer account, the bundle exists for the Team I'm currently using (meaning it will fail 'registering' the bundle identifier). I don't think this is a problem or of concern given that my bundle ID already exists on the account. My build settings have 'Product Build Identifier' pointing to the same bundle Identifier My info.plist file has the following lines: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>CFBundleIdentifier</key> <string>$(PRODUCT_BUNDLE_IDENTIFIER)</string> ... </dict> </plist> Simulator device failed to install the application.

Xcode not omitting binary of static framework
I'm following the steps laid out in Creating a static framework which states: When a client links and embeds the framework, Xcode 15 or later omits the main binary from the embedded framework bundle because it’s already statically linked into the client. Specifically, I'm adding a new framework target to my project, and then changing the Mach-O type in its build settings to Static Library. What I'm observing when I build (debug or release) is that that the resulting framework folder inside of the app bundle still contains a binary. Furthermore, upon inspecting strings and symbols in both the main app executable and this library binary, it appears that my strings and symbols do end up in the main executable and not in the library binary. Does this mean that this binary is just a stub left behind? Is this intended? Can I safely delete this binary with a build phase script?

Application crashes referencing callAsyncJavaScript
When referencing WebKit’s function callAsyncJavaScript, any iOS app crashes immediately on startup when running in simulator. On device, it does not crash. The error message is: dyld[9892]: Symbol not found: _$sSo9WKWebViewC6WebKitE19callAsyncJavaScript_9arguments2inAF17completionHandlerySS_SDySSypGSo11WKFrameInfoCSgSo14WKContentWorldCys6ResultOyyps5Error_pGcSgtF Furthermore, this only happens for some simulators. With Xcode 16.3, it’s simulators 18.0 and prior. With Xcode 16.4 RC1 it includes simulators iOS 18.5 and 18.4 but works correctly on earlier versions of simulator. The reproduction path is easy. Example file attached. This used to work about 3 weeks or a month ago, which is perplexing. As a workaround I replaced the function with evaluateJavaScript which does not crash, but that is not the desired method to use for us. The attached file can reproduce it easily - just refernece this view from the default ContentView in a new project. TestWebView.swift

ActivityKit linker error
I have a ContentView in my app which includes the line of code FileUploadProgressAttributes. this struct is defined in a file included in the target FileUploadProgressExtension. and it is an ActivityAttributes. in ContentView I imported FileUploadProgressExtension, and the xcode is able to find the FileUploadProgressAttributes during prebuild. but during build, it gives me Undefined symbols for architecture arm64: "FileUploadProgressExtension.FileUploadProgressAttributes.init(filename: Swift.String) -> FileUploadProgressExtension.FileUploadProgressAttributes the workaround i found is to add the file with the FileUploadProgressAttributes to my app's target, but I'm not sure if this is the right thing to do. When Xcode created the extension for me, it added the extension target as a target dependency of my app. so obviously if i added this file to my app target it makes the extension target pointless. First time working with widgets so I'm not sure if I'm missing something.

Xcode Simulator Can't Boot
I am facing a recurring issue with Xcode iOS simulator. I want to preview a SwiftUI for iOS in Xcode, but the Simulator app fails to boot up. I receive the follow error in Xcode: Cannot Preview in this file. Simulator was shutdown during an update. I have tried the following: Deleting Xcode cache Reinstalling iOS Simulator runtimes Completely uninstalling Xcode and deleting all developer data, then reinstalling None of the above steps fix the problem. The only fix I have found is to completely reinstall MacOS 15.4.1. THIS IS TERRIBLE! I have already reinstalled MacOS 15.4.1 once to fix the issue, and I don't want to do it again. If there is another solution, please help me find it! Thank you!!

run XCUITest with an SKStoreReviewController
I'm building out a number of XCUITests. At one stage in my app, we present an SKStoreReviewController to ask the user if they'd like to review the app now. All I'd like to do is dismiss the view, by hitting the "Not Now" button. Normally, for other "system" views, I'd something like this: let springboard = XCUIApplication(bundleIdentifier: "com.apple.springboard") let notNowButton = springboard.buttons["Not Now"] And then I'd do an appropriate 'wait' and tap action. But for some reason, this isn't working. Looking for advice on how to properly handle this screen.

Invalid Swift Support - The SwiftSupport folder is missing
Hi When attempting to upload a React Native app (version 0.77) we encountered the following error: ITMS-90426: Invalid Swift Support - The SwiftSupport folder is missing. Rebuild your app using the current public (GM) version of Xcode and resubmit it. If to check ipa folder we can see that content includes only 2 folders: Payload Symbols Could you please tell us why it does not include Swift Support folder? We tried to use XCode - 16.2 and 16.3 Thank you

Testing/debugging QLThumbnailProvider on macOS
I'm implementing the 'new' QLThumbnailProvider for our macOS app... So I just created the skeleton from Xcode, added our QLSupportedContentTypes in Info.plist, and have the skeleton code like below: import QuickLookThumbnailing class ThumbnailProvider: QLThumbnailProvider { override func provideThumbnail(for request: QLFileThumbnailRequest, _ handler: @escaping (QLThumbnailReply?, Error?) -> Void) { // cannot trigger break point here! } I understand I should test the Thumbnail Extension by using: $ qlmanage -t my_file.ext Testing Quick Look thumbnails with files: my_file.ext But I don't know what process to attach to in the Xcode debugger... a bit clueless... I've skimmed relevant parts of https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2019/719, but there is no real debug tips... Does anyone know if it is possible to debug with Xcode or not? And if possible, then how? 😅

Why can't Xcode projects be opened in multiple workspaces
So Xcode has projects. And I breakup my code/libraries/targets into those. So why after 20 years of Xcode, can a workspace, that holds projects not display the same project opened in another workspace? The workspace redirects all output the project would normally generate in DerivedData to a completely different folder by default. What this means is I have to shut one workspace, and then open the other workspace with a different set of projects to see the ones that are shared. The workspace can't build because it can't open the project shared with another one that is open. VS sln files don't have this issue, so why do workspace files.

Previews globally fail with CouldNotLoadInputObjectFile error
Whenever I try to use SwiftUI previews, the preview fails with a CouldNotLoadInputObjectFile error like this: == PREVIEW UPDATE ERROR: FailedToLaunchAppError: Failed to launch com.my-company.Test | ================================== | | [Remote] CouldNotLoadInputObjectFile: Could not load object file during preview: /Users/me/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/Test-dzmdthicvcbuwkawncuacsomcdcd/Build/Intermediates.noindex/Test.build/Debug-iphonesimulator/Test.build/Objects-normal/arm64/TestApp.o | | | | path: /Users/me/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/Test-dzmdthicvcbuwkawncuacsomcdcd/Build/Intermediates.noindex/Test.build/Debug-iphonesimulator/Test.build/Objects-normal/arm64/TestApp.o | | | | ================================== | | | [Remote] XOJITError | | | | | | XOJITError: '/Users/me/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/Test-dzmdthicvcbuwkawncuacsomcdcd/Build/Intermediates.noindex/Test.build/Debug-iphonesimulator/Test.build/Objects-normal/arm64/TestApp.o': No such file or directory It appears that the preview process cannot find the compiled .o files. However, when I check in Finder, the files do exist and normally running the app works fine. It is noteworthy that this is independent of the XCode project or view I try to preview. It is a global issue on my system. Previews not even work when I create a blank new SwiftUI project in XCode. I tried deleting all caches, derived data, preview caches etc. But without any effect. I have this in XCode 16.3 as well as in 16.4 RC. On macOS Sequoia 15.4.1 on a MacBook Air M4. Does anybody have an idea what might be causing this?

Simulator failing to recognize bundle ID
Hi all, I'm learning how to make iOS apps this weekend and I've failed to resolve the following issue. Here's important data regarding my xcode build: On my apple developer account, the bundle exists for the Team I'm currently using (meaning it will fail 'registering' the bundle identifier). I don't think this is a problem or of concern given that my bundle ID already exists on the account. My build settings have 'Product Build Identifier' pointing to the same bundle Identifier My info.plist file has the following lines: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>CFBundleIdentifier</key> <string>$(PRODUCT_BUNDLE_IDENTIFIER)</string> ... </dict> </plist> Simulator device failed to install the application.

Xcode not omitting binary of static framework
I'm following the steps laid out in Creating a static framework which states: When a client links and embeds the framework, Xcode 15 or later omits the main binary from the embedded framework bundle because it’s already statically linked into the client. Specifically, I'm adding a new framework target to my project, and then changing the Mach-O type in its build settings to Static Library. What I'm observing when I build (debug or release) is that that the resulting framework folder inside of the app bundle still contains a binary. Furthermore, upon inspecting strings and symbols in both the main app executable and this library binary, it appears that my strings and symbols do end up in the main executable and not in the library binary. Does this mean that this binary is just a stub left behind? Is this intended? Can I safely delete this binary with a build phase script?

Application crashes referencing callAsyncJavaScript
When referencing WebKit’s function callAsyncJavaScript, any iOS app crashes immediately on startup when running in simulator. On device, it does not crash. The error message is: dyld[9892]: Symbol not found: _$sSo9WKWebViewC6WebKitE19callAsyncJavaScript_9arguments2inAF17completionHandlerySS_SDySSypGSo11WKFrameInfoCSgSo14WKContentWorldCys6ResultOyyps5Error_pGcSgtF Furthermore, this only happens for some simulators. With Xcode 16.3, it’s simulators 18.0 and prior. With Xcode 16.4 RC1 it includes simulators iOS 18.5 and 18.4 but works correctly on earlier versions of simulator. The reproduction path is easy. Example file attached. This used to work about 3 weeks or a month ago, which is perplexing. As a workaround I replaced the function with evaluateJavaScript which does not crash, but that is not the desired method to use for us. The attached file can reproduce it easily - just refernece this view from the default ContentView in a new project. TestWebView.swift

ActivityKit linker error
I have a ContentView in my app which includes the line of code FileUploadProgressAttributes. this struct is defined in a file included in the target FileUploadProgressExtension. and it is an ActivityAttributes. in ContentView I imported FileUploadProgressExtension, and the xcode is able to find the FileUploadProgressAttributes during prebuild. but during build, it gives me Undefined symbols for architecture arm64: "FileUploadProgressExtension.FileUploadProgressAttributes.init(filename: Swift.String) -> FileUploadProgressExtension.FileUploadProgressAttributes the workaround i found is to add the file with the FileUploadProgressAttributes to my app's target, but I'm not sure if this is the right thing to do. When Xcode created the extension for me, it added the extension target as a target dependency of my app. so obviously if i added this file to my app target it makes the extension target pointless. First time working with widgets so I'm not sure if I'm missing something.
