I have an Xcode project written in Objc where Xcode recognizes GoogleMaps code (GMS SDK 9) and applies appropriate theme colors. I'm porting the app into Swift and Xcode does not seem recognize GMS code for theme colors. The theme otherwise works and the Swift/GMS code works (ie the app works). I've tried 'Clean All Targets', deleting the DerivedData folder, cleaning the Xcode cache, re-installing the GMS SDK (both CocoaPod & manual methods) etc. When the Swift project is re-opened, Xcode shows the project is being re-indexed. After indexing, the rest of the code is 'colorized' - but not the GMS code. Both StackOverflow & StackExchange rejected this question. And Apple Developer Support has not been able to help (Case ID: 102334926141). Any advice will be greatly appreciated. TIA

We are using the XCUITest Framework in one of our Apple TV Application. We have created test plans and using Jenkins for CI-CD. Once the test execution is completed, then it gets stuck and it is not stopping/completing the execution by itself.

We have been seeing a dyld loader crash when trying out the new Previews engine in Xcode 16 beta 3. Feedback filed with reproducer + diagnostics: https://feedbackassistant.apple.com/feedback/14323960 Investigation: Running nm -a on the debug dylib reveals duplicate SO entries pointing to SomeStatic.swift. One entry originates from the LibAStatic module, while the other comes from the LibBStatic module. Local workaround - 1 Providing unique file names resolves the issue. However, these files are in different modules, so ideally, this shouldn't be necessary. Our codebase is extensive, and many code-generated modules have the same file names. Therefore, renaming files to ensure uniqueness is not a simple solution for us due to various complexities. Local workaround - 2 Making these dependencies dylibs instead of static libraries also resolves the issue. However, we can't pursue this direction because a significant portion of our pre-build setup, foundations, and vendor linkages are statically linked. Note: The same flow works with "Legacy Preview Engine in Xcode 16/15" but dynamic replacement has other issues, which we are super happy that the new engine doesn't make use of. This issue is currently a blocker for us in trying out the new Previews in our project, it would be highly beneficial if this problem could be resolved soon.

I want to implement TipKit on iOS 14. Is there any way to do that? Could you give me an example?

I got some beacons from a company who provides an SDK to connect to them. They provided two sets of framework files which the SDK is dependent on. The first set is built for Arm 64, and the second is built for x86. I am using them to build a framework for a company which says they require frameworks they integrate into their apps to work for both device and simulator. I think this is primarily for convenience during development. I've run into some walls trying to fulfill these requirements and have some questions about what is possible. The Beacon manufacturer claims the x86 framework files should work for both simulator and device during development, and that arm64 would be for deployment to the app store. I am unable to get x86 to work during development when my device is plugged in though. What does a framework need to work for both device and simulator? Is is possible, from strictly arm64 and strictly x86 framework files, to build universal framework files that supports both arm64 and x86? Then from those to build a new universal framework that leverages all of those? Can this resulting framework not only be used for development on simulator and device, but also be deployed to the app store? Thank you kindly, for your expertise.

Hello, I am developing Java test code to test a web application on an Android and iPhone platforms using Selenium and Appium inside Eclipse IDE. Android device could be tested just fine. When it comes to instantiation of iOSDriver Object for running test script on an iPhone, the run time is complaining that it needs Xcode libraries, or Xcode tool on the class path. This makes it necessary to use a mac system for coding and install Xcode on it. Once I use a mac and develop the test code within my Eclipse, can I deploy the code on a Windows Server? Does the code would not need Xcode during run time or just the Selenium-java client libraries and Appium alone? Thanks a lot, -- Prasad Nutalapati

I have a problem with my xcode. I try to install apps xcodes to manage multiple xcode. My xcode version on 15.2(i try to run on iOS 15 SE1 it's no problem) and after that i try to install xcode 16 beta 3 i try to run iOS 15 SE1 the simulator blank. After that, i delete xcode 16 beta 3 and use xcode 15.2 i try to run on Simulator SE1 iOS 15 the simulator can't response touch. I try to trigger with Device menu on simulator Home, lock, trigger screenshot, etc. The simulator not response touch. How to solve this problem ? how to remove all simulator if uninstall xcodes.

In my Swift macOS app, I use OSLog logging via the line: logger.log("••• channel \(channel, format: .octal(minDigits: 3))") .. and the Xcode console shows: ••• channel 29 .. the formatting to octal and minDigits are ignored. I've searched high and low for why this is happening (another app with the same line results in correct Xcode console output). The Console.app does show the correct output: ••• channel 035 Any suggestions regarding what I'm not understanding? Thanks.

When I new project is initiated in XCode 16 beta 3, an overall folder is created to contain all the generated content in the Navigator pane . In past XCode version, this main container (under the project name) has always been generated as a group. Is this change by design or a bug? The issue this creates is that the files and folders in this overall Folder can not be repositioned - they remain in ascending alphabetical order. I must convert this initial Folder into a Group by right clicking on the folder name and selecting "Convert to group" which converts the folder to a group. I am then able to reposition files, groups and folders within this group. I don't see anywhere in the XCode documentation where this change in behavior is mentioned. Anyone else having this same issue. I never have understood the difference or use cases for groups vs folders in the xcode Navigator pane.

One of my customers is reporting a crash. He sent me a file called "Analytics-2024-07-08-200041.ips.ca.synced". I don't know what to do with this file. It appears to contain thousands of lines of JSON. I can read them, but the file is too large for me to find any specific problem. What is this file, how was it generated, and how am I supposed to use it? When I searched for the answer online, I kept running into instructions asking me to choose tabs or press buttons in Xcode that don't exist. I assume that this is because Xcode changed since those instructions were written. I did check for crash reports in the Organizer and it does not report any for the current version of my app, or any within the past two weeks for any version.

Hello, We are thinking about a proof of concept test app, to determine accurately a 30-40, ball bounce with a horizontal surface(court). Question is and appreciate guidance, what API kits might be best for this? and can this API be set at 220 FPS 1080px setting and do the accurate analysis? I was thinking VisionKit? Also any examples of code, apps, links, and apps be very much appreciated. Open to some developer help/coding also :) Thank you so much.

I wanted to create a provisioning profile for my project via my physical device, just as a test. However, my serial number and my capacity weren't identified. Could it be the cable?

Since I updated to Xcode 15.3, my archives have an empty dSYMs folder. I have not changed any project settings since Xcode 14. My build settings have: Debug Information Format: DWARF with dSYM File Generate Debug Symbols: Yes From my archives, if I navigate to the .xcarchive, Show Package Contents, there is a dSYMs folder. For all my archives built in Xcode 15, this folder is empty. For previous archives (Xcode 14), this folder contains a .app.dSYM file. When I distribute my app via App Store Connect and receive crash reports from TestFlight, these are symbolicated. So I'm confused why I don't see a local .dSYM file. Can you explain this? What do I need to change to generate this? (And does it matter if I'm getting symbolicated crash reports??)

My Project crash when use Xcode16 beta 3 while Xcode15 is fine, please help!

Using Xcode 15.4, iPhone 11 in iOS 17.5.1. Mac OS is Sonoma 14.5. Not able to debug on my device. When I try to run my application on the device from Xcode it is always showing Waiting to reconnect to phone. Previous preparation error: The developer disk image could not be mounted on this device. A networking error occurred. Tried below steps Unpairing the device Restarting phone, xcode and Mac Renamed the Library/Developer and ~/Library/Developer folder untrusting the computer and trusting it again Nothing seems to be working. How to resolve this?

the application icon turns black in iOS 18's dark mode, resembling a ghost. Therefore, we would like to understand how Apple processes the background of app icons to turn them black in dark mode. My request is as follows: I would like to understand the color change principle of app icons in dark mode. Without using Xcode 16, how can we ensure compatibility so that users with iOS 18 can see the normal icon?

I am following these instructions to created a Safari Web Extension App project: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/safariservices/safari_web_extensions/creating_a_safari_web_extension When I try to compile the default code, I get this error: Circular dependency between modules 'Dispatch' and 'Foundation' At one point, it showed the error was in generatedassetssymbols.swift file, although I cant replicate that now. macOS, Sonoma 14.0, xcode 15.4 Anyone know what is going on? It is literally the default project without any changes.

Hello I´ve build a game in Unreal and try to get it for sale to a webshop (not Apple Store). For that, the game needs to be notarized etc. And to sell the outside of Apple Store you need to log in manually with Developer ID application in Xcode. Any idea why I get this error message: "Hardened Runtime is Not Enabled. "XXXXXXXX.app" must be rebuilt with support for the Hardened Runtime. Enable the Hardened Runtime capability in the project editor, test your app, rebuild your archive, and upload again. Any help appreciated, I´ve struggled with this for a week. All the best, Ramili

While coding, Xcode Version 15.4 (15F31d) is consistently breaking builds by changing both struct and class declarations in areas of code other than where I'm currently editing. Suddenly, code that was compiling a minute ago breaks with multiple "Type 'Xxxx' has no member 'getYyyy'. For example, I'm writing code in a subclass, and suddenly calls to the superclass's methods are unrecognized by the compiler (e.g., "Type 'MeetInfoSheetReader' has no member 'getDateValue'"). Command-click on the method name takes me to the method in the superclass, and nothing is wrong at that point: I have the correct method signature, yet the code doesn't compile. I scroll up to the class declaration only to find that Xcode has changed "class" to "enum". This can happen regardless of whether the superclass or the reference struct is in the same or a different file. Also, this happens frequently, and it's not because I have bouts of narcolepsy and changed class or struct to enum while out. My dog doesn't even get near the laptop while I'm away from it, and I don't have a cat who types let alone a cat. Because I cannot associate this aggravating Xcode behavior with any particular thing I'm doing (e.g., name refactoring a variable or class name, deleting commented sections of exploratory code, or anything else) I'm sure that if I file a bug with the Feedback Assistant (a really ****** bug reporting system), it will be marked closed without the slightest bit of interest in exploring the problem. Hopefully someone else has seen this behavior and has a solution. Because it's really counterproductive.

Hey everyone, I'm a new developer working on my app. I'm facing an unusual problem during the App Store review process. The app works perfectly on my physical devices, running iOS 18.0 developer beta, but it consistently crashes on simulators with iOS 17.5. Due to this issue, my app has been rejected for iOS 17.5 because of the crashes. I know I should have avoided developing and testing the app on different versions, so please go easy on me :( Crash Details: Steps Leading to Crash: Opened the app Went to the Stocks section Clicked on Buy App crashed The Breakpoint Exception: Thread 1: EXC_BREAKPOINT (code=1, subcode=0x21b9f1620) Generated Infrastructure Code Section Triggering Crash: { @storageRestrictions(accesses: _$backingData, initializes: _stock) init(initialValue) { _$backingData.setValue(forKey: \.stock, to: initialValue) _stock = _SwiftDataNoType() } get { _$observationRegistrar.access(self, keyPath: \.stock) return self.getValue(forKey: \.stock) } set { _$observationRegistrar.withMutation(of: self, keyPath: \.stock) { self.setValue(forKey: \.stock, to: newValue) } } } The crash appears to be related to Swift Data handling during the trade operation in my app's TradeView. While I've managed to temporarily fix the issue by running the app on iOS 18.0, this is not a practical solution for the App Store release, which is my immediate concern. Has anyone else experienced similar issues with Swift Data on iOS 17.5? If yes, how did you solve it? Is there a known workaround or a better approach to ensure compatibility with iOS 17.5? Thank you in advance for your valuable assistance. I truly appreciate your help!
