I have a problem with the following code, I am not being notified of changes to the progress property of my Job object, which is @Observable... This is a command-line Mac application (the same code works fine in a SwiftUI application). I must have missed something? do { let job = AsyncJob() withObservationTracking { let progress = job.progress } onChange: { print("Current progress: \(job.progress)") } let _ = try await job.run() print("Done...") } catch { print(error) } I Try this without any success: @main struct MyApp { static func main() async throws { // my code here } }

i have macos 15 and xcode 16 swift 6 and want to make apps to run on macintosh. i know the syntax of this programming language, but i need informations like which libraries i have to import for func's which name i do not know, and parameters i have not found on websites or the tutorial on swift. i need procedures like open window at x,y,width,height draw rectangle at x,y,width,height,color draw text at x,y,width,height,color,size read keyboard-letter,up/dn,shift read mouse x,y,buttons

I am using swiftui lately in my iOS mobile app, The Mobile app already has a pipeline that detect any experimental features and throw an error I am using swift 5 and as you all know SwiftUI is using some of OpaqueTypeErasure utility types like "some" I heard that in swift 6 the OpaqueTypeErasure is not experimental anymore But upgrading the app swift version will be a very long process Also changing the pipeline will be a very long and tiring process So i want to know if there is a way to remove OpaqueTypeErasure from SwiftUI and what is the alternatives for bypassing the error that being thrown from the pipeline

In my project, i have a Swift class with a class level property of type string. Like this : class TWSwiftString { var pString:String! init(_ pString: String) { self.pString = pString } } I am creating intance of this class and then creating a opaque pointer to this intance. Like this : let str = TWSwiftString("World") // Increasing RC by 1 strptr = Unmanaged.passRetained(str).toOpaque() Now using this opaque pointer i want to modify the value of pString by directly operating on memory. Like this: withUnsafeMutablePointer(to: &strptr.pString) { strPointer in strPointer.pointee = "World" } Although i am able to modify pString like this and print. Lets assume i have a approach to make sure memory remains valid when it is operated on and freeing of memory is also handled somehow . Will this approach work if i have 100s of intance of this string which are being operated in this manner ? What if the size of new value is greater than existing string value ? For this i am thinking of chunk of memory initially and then keep on increasing size of it as bigger string then this chunk comes. Does this approach seems feasible ? Any other problems i can encounter by using this approach ? Chatgpt gave this answer : To directly update the memory of a Swift class’s property, particularly to alter a String property, is generally discouraged due to Swift's memory safety model. However, if we want to access and modify a class property directly, the best practice is to use a property accessor, as manually altering memory could lead to undefined behavior or even crashes. Why Direct Memory Manipulation Is Risky When you attempt to manipulate memory directly, especially with Swift’s memory model, you might alter not only the value but also the memory layout of Swift’s String type, which could break things internally. The Swift compiler may store String differently based on the internal structure, so even if we manage to locate the correct memory address, directly modifying it is unreliable. do you have any opinion around chatgpt resoponse ?

I'll describe my crash with an example, looking for some insights into the reason why this is happening. @objc public protocol LauncherContainer { var launcher: Launcher { get } } @objc public protocol Launcher: UIViewControllerTransitioningDelegate { func initiateLaunch(url: URL, launchingHotInstance: Bool) } @objc final class LauncherContainer: NSObject, LauncherContainer, TabsContentCellTapHandler { ... init( ... ) { ... super.init() } ... // // ContentCellTapHandler // public func tabContentCellItemDidTap( tabId: String ) { ... launcher.initiateNewTabNavigation( tabId: tabId // Crash happens here ) } public class Launcher: NSObject, Launcher, FooterPillTapHandler { public func initiateNewTabNavigation(tabId: String) { ... } } public protocol TabsContentCellTapHandler: NSObject { func tabContentCellItemDidTap( tabId: String, } Crash stack last 2 lines are- libswiftCore.dylib swift_unknownObjectRetain libswiftCore.dylib String._bridgeToObjectiveCImpl() String._bridgeToObjectiveCImpl() gets called when the caller and implementation is in Swift file I believe due to @objc class LauncherContainer there'd be bridging header generated. Does that mean tabId passed to tabContentCellItemDidTap is a String but the one passed to initiateNewTabNavigation is NSString? TabId is UUID().uuidString if that helps. Wondering if UUID().uuidString has something to do with this. Thanks a ton for helping. Please find attached screenshot of the stack trace.

macOS: Sequoia Xcode: 16.1 I am working on a macOS app and it has a widget feature. When I use Swift 6 (Build Settings > Swift Language Version) in IntentExtension, the intent configuration won't show up in macOS Sequoia. If I downgrade to Swift 5, it works without any other changes. Is it a bug or am I missing something? How can I use Swift 6 with IntentExtension.

I have an app whose logic is in C++ and rest of the parts (UI) are in Swift and SwiftUI. Exceptions can occur in C++ and Swift. I've got the C++ part covered by using the Linux's signal handler mechanism to trap signals which get raised due to exceptions. But how should I capture exceptions in Swift? When I say exceptions in Swift, I mean, divide by zero, force unwrapping of an optional containing nil, out of index access in an array, etc. Basically, anything that can go wrong, I don't want my app to abruptly crash... I need a chance to finalise my stuff, alert the user, prepare diagnostic reports and terminate. I'm looking for a 'catch-all' exception handler. As an example, let's take Android. In Android, there is the setDefaultUncaughtExceptionHandler method to register for all kinds of exceptions in any thread in Kotlin. I'm looking for something similar in Swift that should work for macOS, iOS &amp; iPadOS, tvOS and watchOS. I first came across the NSSetUncaughtExceptionHandler method. My understanding is, this only works when I explicitly raise NSExceptions. When I tested it, observed that the exception handler didn't get invoked for either case - divide by zero or invoking raise. class AppDelegate: NSObject, NSApplicationDelegate { func applicationDidFinishLaunching(_ aNotification: Notification) { Log("AppDelegate.applicationDidFinishLaunching(_:)") // Set the 'catch-all' exception handler for Swift exceptions. Log("Registering exception handler using NSSetUncaughtExceptionHandler()...") NSSetUncaughtExceptionHandler { (exception: NSException) in Log("AppDelegate.NSUncaughtExceptionHandler()") Log("Exception: \(exception)") } Log("Registering exception handler using NSSetUncaughtExceptionHandler() succeeded!") // For C++, use the Linux's signal mechanism. ExceptionHandlingCpp.RegisterSignals() //ExceptionHandlingCpp.TestExceptionHandler() AppDelegate.TestExceptionHandlerSwift() } static func TestExceptionHandlerSwift() { Log("AppDelegate.TestExceptionHandlerSwift()") DivisionByZero(0) } private static func DivisionByZero(_ divisor: Int) { Log("AppDelegate.DivisionByZero()") let num1: Int = 2 Log("Raising Exception...") //let result: Int = num1/divisor let exception: NSException = NSException(name: NSExceptionName(rawValue: "arbitrary"), reason: "arbitrary reason", userInfo: nil) exception.raise() Log("Returning from DivisionByZero()") } } In the above code, dividing by zero, nor raising a NSException invokes the closure passed to NSSetUncaughtExceptionHandler, evident from the following output logs AppDelegate.applicationWillFinishLaunching(_:) AppDelegate.applicationDidFinishLaunching(_:) Registering exception handler using NSSetUncaughtExceptionHandler()... Registering exception handler using NSSetUncaughtExceptionHandler() succeeded! ExceptionHandlingCpp::RegisterSignals() .... AppDelegate.TestExceptionHandlerSwift() AppDelegate.DivisionByZero() Raising Exception... Currently, I'm reading about ExceptionHandling framework, but this is valid only for macOS. What is the recommended way to capture runtime issues in Swift?

I used struct in the swift file, but once I use xcode build. It will automatically change to enum, causing build failure. But it turns out that this file can be used to build. Since upgrading to XCode16.1, it's not working anymore. I don't know where to set it up. Do not optimize or modify my code. Error message: 'Padding' cannot be constructed because it has no accessible initializers My environment is: macos sequoia 15.1 xcode 16.1(16B40) File source code： let π: CGFloat = .pi let customUserAgent: String = "litewallet-ios" let swiftUICellPadding = 12.0 let bigButtonCornerRadius = 15.0 enum FoundationSupport { static let dashboard = "https://support.litewallet.io/" } enum APIServer { static let baseUrl = "https://api-prod.lite-wallet.org/" } enum Padding { subscript(multiplier: Int) -> CGFloat { return CGFloat(multiplier) * 8.0 } subscript(multiplier: Double) -> CGFloat { return CGFloat(multiplier) * 8.0 } } enum C { static let padding = Padding() enum Sizes { static let buttonHeight: CGFloat = 48.0 static let sendButtonHeight: CGFloat = 165.0 static let headerHeight: CGFloat = 48.0 static let largeHeaderHeight: CGFloat = 220.0 } static var defaultTintColor: UIColor = UIView().tintColor Enum was originally SRTUCT.

I'm using this library for encoding / decoding RSA keys. https://github.com/Kitura/BlueRSA It's worked fine up until macOS sequoia. The issue I'm having is the tests pass when in Debug mode, but the moment I switch to Release mode, the library no longer works. I ruled this down the swift optimization level. If I change the Release mode to no optimization, the library works again. Wondering where in the code this could be an issue? How would optimization break the functionality?

Hi all, Background: I am working as a library developer and would like to enable Swift C++ interoperability in our library. Our library supports both CocoaPods and SPM. Question: I would like to know whether it is possible to avoid breaking changes bring to the library users after enabling Swift C++ interoperability. In my experiment, all apps and packages depend on the library needs to enable interoperability in Xcode or package manage tools, otherwise the source code cannot be complied. I am wondering is there any ways to bypass this? For example, is there a way to only enable Swift C++ interoperability only in our libraries?

I would like to see examples of how to do this. Apple states that explicit clang modules don't work with C++ interop. ObjC++ has simple interop with C++. Swift does not. And so I'd like to know how to setup my C++ projects to build them as clang modules.

In below Swift code , is there any possiblities of failure of Unmanaged.passRetain and Unmanaged.takeRetain calls ? // can below call fail (constructor returns nil due to OS or language error) and do i need to do explicit error handling here? let str = TWSwiftString(pnew) // Increasing RC by 1 // can below call fail (assuming str is valid) and do i need to do explicit error handling for the same ? let ptr:UnsafeMutableRawPointer? = Unmanaged.passRetained(str).toOpaque() // decrease RC by 1 // can below call fail (assuming ptr is valid) ? and do i need to do explicit error handling Unmanaged<TWSwiftString>.fromOpaque(pStringptr).release()

This is similar to this post https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/700770 on using objc_copyClassList to obtain the available classes. When iterating the list, I try casting the result to an instance of a protocol and that works fine: protocol DynamicCounter { init(controlledByPlayer: Bool, game: Game) } class BaseCounter: NSObject, DynamicCounter { } static func withAllClasses<R>( _ body: (UnsafeBufferPointer<AnyClass>) throws -> R ) rethrows -> R { var count: UInt32 = 0 let classListPtr = objc_copyClassList(&count) defer { free(UnsafeMutableRawPointer(classListPtr)) } let classListBuffer = UnsafeBufferPointer( start: classListPtr, count: Int(count) ) return try body(classListBuffer) } static func initialize() { let monoClasses = withAllClasses { $0.compactMap { $0 as? DynamicCounter.Type } } for cl in monoClasses { cl.initialize() } } The above code works fine if I use DynamicCounter.Type on the cast but crashes if try casting to BaseCounter.Type instead. Is there a way to avoid the weird and non Swift classes?

Hi, I have a complex structure of classes, and I'm trying to migrate to swift6 For this classes I've a facade that creates the classes for me without disclosing their internals, only conforming to a known protocol I think I've hit a hard wall in my knowledge of how the actors can exchange data between themselves. I've created a small piece of code that can trigger the error I've hit import SwiftUI import Observation @globalActor actor MyActor { static let shared: some Actor = MyActor() init() { } } @MyActor protocol ProtocolMyActor { var value: String { get } func set(value: String) } @MyActor func make(value: String) -> ProtocolMyActor { return ImplementationMyActor(value: value) } class ImplementationMyActor: ProtocolMyActor { private(set) var value: String init(value: String) { self.value = value } func set(value: String) { self.value = value } } @MainActor @Observable class ViewObserver { let implementation: ProtocolMyActor var value: String init() async { let implementation = await make(value: "Ciao") self.implementation = implementation self.value = await implementation.value } func set(value: String) { Task { await implementation.set(value: value) self.value = value } } } struct MyObservedView: View { @State var model: ViewObserver? var body: some View { if let model { Button("Loaded \(model.value)") { model.set(value: ["A", "B", "C"].randomElement()!) } } else { Text("Loading") .task { self.model = await ViewObserver() } } } } The error Non-sendable type 'any ProtocolMyActor' passed in implicitly asynchronous call to global actor 'MyActor'-isolated property 'value' cannot cross actor boundary Occurs in the init on the line "self.value = await implementation.value" I don't know which concurrency error happens... Yes the init is in the MainActor , but the ProtocolMyActor data can only be accessed in a MyActor queue, so no data races can happen... and each access in my ImplementationMyActor uses await, so I'm not reading or writing the object from a different actor, I just pass sendable values as parameter to a function of the object.. can anybody help me understand better this piece of concurrency problem? Thanks

I make some small program to make dots. Many of them. I have a Generator which generates dots in a loop: //reprat until all dots in frame while !newDots.isEmpty { virginDots = [] for newDot in newDots { autoreleasepool{ virginDots.append( contentsOf: newDot.addDots(in: size, allDots: &result, inSomeWay)) } newDots = virginDots } counter += 1 print ("\(result.count) dots in \(counter) grnerations") } Sometimes this loop needs hours/days to finish (depend of inSomeWay settings), so it would be very nice to send partial result to a View, and/or if result is not satisfying — break this loop and start over. My understanding of Tasks and Concurrency became worse each time I try to understand it, maybe it's my age, maybe language barier. For now, Button with {Task {...}} action doesn't removed Rainbow Wheel from my screen. Killing an app is wrong because killing is wrong. How to deal with it?

I ran into a memory issue that I don't understand why this could happen. For me, It seems like ARC doesn't guarantee thread-safety. Let see the code below @propertyWrapper public struct AtomicCollection&lt;T&gt; { private var value: [T] private var lock = NSLock() public var wrappedValue: [T] { set { lock.lock() defer { lock.unlock() } value = newValue } get { lock.lock() defer { lock.unlock() } return value } } public init(wrappedValue: [T]) { self.value = wrappedValue } } final class CollectionTest: XCTestCase { func testExample() throws { let rounds = 10000 let exp = expectation(description: "test") exp.expectedFulfillmentCount = rounds @AtomicCollection var array: [Int] = [] for i in 0..&lt;rounds { DispatchQueue.global().async { array.append(i) exp.fulfill() } } wait(for: [exp]) } } It will crash for various reasons (see screenshots below) I know that the test doesn't reflect typical application usage. My app is quite different from traditional app so the code above is just the simplest form for proof of the issue. One more thing to mention here is that array.count won't be equal to 10,000 as expected (probably because of copy-on-write snapshot) So my questions are Is this a bug/undefined behavior/expected behavior of Swift/Obj-c ARC? Why this could happen? Any solutions suggest? How do you usually deal with thread-safe collection (array, dict, set)?

` init() { nextOrder = self.AllItems.map{$0.order}.max() if nextOrder == nil { nextOrder = 0 } nextOrder! += 1 // <--- Thread 1: Fatal error: Unexpectedly found nil while unwrapping an Optional value } ` I have to say, Swift is great - when it works!
