I have my project running perfectly fine on Xcode 16. However, in Xcode 26 it doesn't build due to an error that I do not understand. I have three files that pertain to this error: // FriendListResponse.swift import Foundation struct FriendListResponse: Decodable { var friendships: [Friendship] var collections: [FriendCollection] } // Friendship.swift import Foundation struct Friendship: Decodable { var createdAt: String var friendId: Int var friendUserId: Int // user ID of the friend var friendUsername: String var id: Int var tagNames: [String] } // FriendCollection.swift struct FriendCollection: Decodable { var id: Int var permalink: String var tagNames: [String] var title: String } On the first file, FriendListResponse.swift, I am the simple error message "circular reference." I do not understand how these self-contained structs could create a circular reference. Although I have other data types in my project, none of them are even referenced in these files except for Friendship and FriendCollection. The FriendListResponse is a struct that is created from JSON values that are fetched from an API. This is the function that fetches the JSON: public static func listFriends(username: String) async throws -> [Friendship] { let data = try await sendGETRequest( url: "people/\(username)/friends/list.json" ) print(String(data: data, encoding: .utf8)!) let decoder = JSONDecoder() decoder.keyDecodingStrategy = .convertFromSnakeCase let wrapper = try decoder.decode(FriendListResponse.self, from: data) return wrapper.friendships } // Note: the function sendGETRequest is just // a function that I have created that takes a set // of parameters and returns a data object // using the HTTP GET protocol. I don't think // that it is related to this issue. However, if you // think that it is, I can share the code for that. This error has also happened in a few other cases within contained networks of my data structure. I do not know why this error is only appearing once I launch Xcode 26 beta with my project files. I would think that this error also would appear in Xcode 16.4. Any help would be greatly appreciated in my process to compile my project on Xcode 26!

I have a transformation function that takes in data, executes some instructions, and returns an output. This function is dynamic and not shipped with the binary. Currently, I’m executing it using JavaScriptCore.JSContext, which works well, but the function itself is written in JavaScript. Is there a way to achieve something similar using Swift – such as executing a dynamic Swift script, either directly or through other means? I know this is possible on macOS, but I’m not sure about iOS. I’ve also heard that extensions might open up some possibilities here. Any insights or alternative approaches would be appreciated.

I'm seeing somewhat regular crash reports from my app which appear to be deep in the Swift libraries. They're happening in the same spot, so I'm apt to believe something is likely getting deallocated behind the scenes - but I don't really know how to guard against it.

We're parsing that packet using what I think it pretty straightforward code that looks like this: func parseXml(dataStream: Data?) -> Array<String> { var events: [String] = [] guard let data = dataStream else { return events } currentDataStream.append(data) var str = String(decoding: currentDataStream, as: UTF8.self) while str.contains(StreamParser.STREAM_DELIMTER) { let splitEvent = str.split(separator: StreamParser.STREAM_DELIMTER, maxSplits: 1) let cotEvent = splitEvent.first! var restOfString = "" if splitEvent.count > 1 { restOfString = String(splitEvent.last!) } events.append("\(cotEvent)\(StreamParser.STREAM_DELIMTER)") str = restOfString } currentDataStream = Data(str.utf8) return events } the intention is that the message may be broken across multiple packets, so we build them up here. Is there anything I can do to guard against these crashes?

In scope of one of our project we've faced an issue with constant crashes when integrating C++ library in Swift code using Swift/C++ interoperability. Investigating the root causes of the issue we've discovered that with new version of Swift bug was introduced. Long story short: for strings bigger than 27 symbols memory is feed incorrectly that causes the crashes. By creating this post I wanted to draw community's attention to the problem and promote it to be solved quicker as for now it is not addressed.

Why Ternary operator in not called a binary Operator or ternary Operands ? question ? answer1 : answer2 When it takes 2 operators ?

A few questions. One, can I safely upgrade to my project to Swift 6.2 without having to require iOS 26+? Two, where do I actually make the upgrade. This is what I see in build settings: 6.2 is not available in the dropdown?

Hi, I would like to modify an associated value of an existing enum instance of the the following enum: enum FilterItem: Equatable, Hashable { case work(isSelected: Bool) ... var filterName: String { switch self { case .work: return "Work" ... } } var isSelected: Bool { switch self { case .work(let isSelected): return isSelected ... } } I want to be able to switch on the FilterItem type and then to be able to modify the isSelected property of the instance like: let itemToChange: FilterItem switch item { case .work(let isSelected): itemToChange.isSelected = !isSelected I know the above code doesn't compile, but I was wondering if there was a way I could modify my enum instance without creating a totally new enum instance.

I came across a code let myFruitBasket = ["apple":"red", "banana": "yellow", "budbeeri": "dark voilet", "chikoo": "brown"] Can we have range for keys and values of dictionary, it will be convenient for keys print(myFruitBasket.keys[1...3]) // banana, budbeeri, chikoo same for values print(myFruitsBasket.values[1...3]) // yellow, voilet, brown

I want to load images from my bundle, which works fine when running the main app. However this does not work when running UI Tests. I read that the test bundle is not the main bundle when running tests. I try loading the bundle via this snippet: let bundle = Bundle(for: Frames_HoerspielUITests.self) This is my test class wrapped these the canImport statements so it can be added to the main app target and used for getting the correct bundle: #if canImport(XCTest) import XCTest final class Frames_HoerspielUITests: XCTestCase { override func setUpWithError() throws { continueAfterFailure = false } override func tearDownWithError() throws { } @MainActor func testExample() throws { let app = XCUIApplication() app.launch() } @MainActor func testLaunchPerformance() throws { measure(metrics: [XCTApplicationLaunchMetric()]) { XCUIApplication().launch() } } } #else final class Frames_HoerspielUITests { } #endif However while this works when running the main app, it still fails in the UI tests. It is a SwiftUI only app. and I can't add the images to the asset catalog because they are referenced from another location. Any ideas? Thank you

AsyncStream { continuation in Task { let response = await getResponse() continuation.yield(response) continuation.finish() } } In this WWDC video https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2025/231/ at 8:20 the presenter mentions that if the "Task gets cancelled, the Task inside the function will automatically get cancelled too". The documentation does not mention anything like this. From my own testing on iOS 18.5, this is not true.

I'm having trouble dealing with concurrency with the SFAuthorizationPluginView. Does anybody know how this can be solved? https://developer.apple.com/documentation/securityinterface/sfauthorizationpluginview The crux of it is: If I inherit an object as part of an API, and the API is preconcurrency, and thus is nonisolated (but in reality is @MainActor), how do I return a @MainActor GUI element? https://developer.apple.com/documentation/securityinterface/sfauthorizationpluginview/firstresponder() The longer story: I made my view class inherit SFAuthorizationPluginView. The API is preconcurrency (but not marked as preconcurrency) I started using concurrency in my plugin to retrieve data over XPC. (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xpc/xpcsession + https://developer.apple.com/documentation/swift/withcheckedthrowingcontinuation(isolation:function:_:)) Once I retrieve the data over XPC, I need to post it on GUI, hence I've set my view class as @MainActor in order to do the thread switch. Swift compiler keeps complaining: override func firstResponder() -&gt; NSResponder? { return usernameField } "Main actor-isolated property 'usernameField' can not be referenced from a nonisolated context; this is an error in the Swift 6 language mode" override func firstResponder() -&gt; NSResponder? { MainActor.assumeIsolated { return usernameField } } "Sending 'self' risks causing data races; this is an error in the Swift 6 language mode" I think fundamentally, the API is forcing me to give away a @MainActor variable through a nonisolated function, and there is no way to shut up the compiler. I've tried @preconcurrency and it has no effect as far as I can tell. I've also tried marking the function explicitly as nonisolated. The rest of the API are less problematic, but returning a GUI variable is exceptionally difficult.

In my code I use a binding that use 2 methods to get and get a value. There is no problem with swift 5 but when I swift to swift 6 the compiler fails : Here a sample example of code to reproduce the problem : `import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { @State private var isOn = false var body: some View { VStack { Image(systemName: "globe") .imageScale(.large) .foregroundStyle(.tint) Text("Hello, world!") Toggle("change it", isOn: Binding(get: getValue, set: setValue(_:))) } .padding() } private func getValue() -&gt; Bool { isOn } private func setValue(_ value: Bool) { isOn = value } }` Xcode compiler log error : 1.

I'm developing an audio unit for use on iOS. The AUv3 worked fine with xcode 15.X and swift 5.X. I recently tried to submit an update to my plug-in but Apple refused submission because my Xcode was not the latest. Now that I'm on Xcode 16.4 I can't get my project to compile, even when following all of the same previous steps. As one example of a change, Xcode doesn't appear to include the “C++ and Objective-C interoperability” build setting that it used to. This setting is noted in the Swift documentation and I used to need it, https://www.swift.org/documentation/cxx-interop/project-build-setup/#mixing-swift-and-c-using-xcode Currently my C++ code can't see anything from Swift, and I get a "Use of undeclared identifier 'project_name'". I've selected Switch support for version 5.0 in an attempt to minimize changes from Apple. My process is I generate an Xcode project file from my audio plugin support, JUCE. Then I add in the swift files, click yes to create bridging headers, but c++ doesn't see swift anymore. I'd greatly appreciate any suggestions.

As a fun project, I'm wanting to model an electronic circuit. Components inherit from a superclass (ElectronicComponent). Each subclass (e.g. Resistor) has certain methods to return properties (e.g. resistance), but may vary by the number of outlets (leads) they have, and what they are named. Each outlet connects to a Junction. In my code to assemble a circuit, while I'm able to manually hook up the outlets to the junctions, I'd like to be able to use code similar to the following… class Lead: Hashable // implementation omitted { let id = UUID() unowned let component: ElectronicComponent weak var connection: Junction? init(component: ElectronicComponent, to connection: Junction? = nil) { self.component = component self.connection = connection } } @dynamicMemberLookup class ElectronicComponent { let id = UUID() var connections: Set<Lead> = [] let label: String? init(label: String) { self.label = label } subscript<T>(dynamicMember keyPath: KeyPath<ElectronicComponent, T>) -> T { self[keyPath: keyPath] } func connect(lead: KeyPath<ElectronicComponent, Lead>, to junction: Junction) { let lead = self[keyPath: lead] lead.connection = junction connections.insert(lead) } } class Resistor: ElectronicComponent { var input, output: Lead? let resistance: Measurement<UnitElectricResistance> init(_ label: String, resistance: Measurement<UnitElectricResistance>) { self.resistance = resistance super.init(label: label) } } let resistorA = Resistor("R1", resistance: .init(value: 100, unit: .ohms)) let junctionA = Junction(name: "A") resistorA.connect(lead: \.outlet2, to: junctionA) While I'm able to do this by implementing @dynamicMemberLookup in each subclass, I'd like to be able to do this in the superclass to save repeating the code. subscript<T>(dynamicMember keyPath: KeyPath<ElectronicComponent, T>) -> T { self[keyPath: keyPath] } Unfortunately, the compiler is not allowing me to do this as the superclass doesn't know about the subclass properties, and at the call site, the subclass isn't seen as ElectronicComponent. I've been doing trial and error with protocol conformance and other things, but hitting walls each time. One possibility is replacing the set of outlets with a dictionary, and using Strings instead of key paths, but would prefer not to. Another thing I haven't tried is creating and adopting a protocol with the method implemented in there. Another considered approach is using macros in the subclasses, but I'd like to see if there is a possibility of achieving the goal using my current approach, for learning as much as anything.

I'm struggling to convert Swift 5 to Swift 6. As advised in doc, I first turned strict concurrency ON. I got no error. Then, selected swift6… and problems pop up. I have a UIViewController with IBOutlets: eg a TextField. computed var eg duree func using UNNotification: func userNotificationCenter I get the following error in the declaration line of the func userNotificationCenter: Main actor-isolated instance method 'userNotificationCenter(_:didReceive:withCompletionHandler:)' cannot be used to satisfy nonisolated requirement from protocol 'UNUserNotificationCenterDelegate' So, I declared the func as non isolated. This func calls another func func2, which I had also to declare non isolated. Then I get error on the computed var used in func2 Main actor-isolated property 'duree' can not be referenced from a nonisolated context So I declared duree as nonsilated(unsafe). Now comes the tricky part. The computed var references the IBOutlet dureeField if dureeField.text == "X" leading to the error Main actor-isolated property 'dureeField' can not be referenced from a nonisolated context So I finally declared the class as mainActor and the textField as nonisolated @IBOutlet nonisolated(unsafe) weak var dureeField : UITextField! That silences the error (but declaring unsafe means I get no extra robustness with swift6) just to create a new one when calling dureeField.text: Main actor-isolated property 'text' can not be referenced from a nonisolated context Question: how to address properties inside IBOutlets ? I do not see how to declare them non isolated and having to do it on each property of each IBOutlet would be impracticable. The following did work, but will make code very verbose: if MainActor.assumeIsolated({dureeField.text == "X"}) { So I must be missing something.
