Hi all, In Swift, I often see static helper functions grouped in an enum without any cases, like this: enum StringUtils { static func camelCaseToSnakeCase(_ input: String) -> String { // implementation } } Since this enum has no cases, it cannot be instantiated – which is exactly the point. It’s meant to group related functionality without any stored state, and without the need for instantiation. This pattern avoids writing a struct with a private init() and makes the intent clearer: "This is just a static utility, not an object." You’ll often see this used for things like: AnalyticsEvents.track(_:) My question: Is this use of a case-less enum considered good practice in Swift when building static-only helpers? Or is there a better alternative for expressing intent and preventing instantiation? I’d appreciate any insight – especially if there’s official guidance or references from the Swift core team. Thanks!

Hello, I am developing a private internal Flutter app for our customer, which will not be published on the Apple Store. One of the key features of this app is to collect RF strength metrics to share user experience with the network. For Android, we successfully implemented the required functionality and are able to collect the following metrics: Signal strength level (0-4) Signal strength in dBm RSSI RSRQ Cell ID Location Area Code Carrier name Mobile country code Mobile network code Radio access technology Connection status Duplex mode However, for iOS, we are facing challenges with CoreTelephony, which is not returning the necessary data. We are aware that CoreTelephony is deprecated and are looking for alternatives. We noticed that a lot of the information we need is available via FTMInternal-4. Is there a way to access this data for a private app? Are there any other recommended approaches or frameworks that can be used to gather cellular network information on iOS for an app that won't be distributed via the Apple Store? my swift code import Foundation import CoreTelephony class RfSignalStrengthImpl: RfSignalStrengthApi { func getCellularSignalStrength(completion: @escaping (Result<CellularSignalStrength, Error>) -> Void) { let networkInfo = CTTelephonyNetworkInfo() guard let carrier = networkInfo.serviceSubscriberCellularProviders?.values.first else { completion(.failure(NSError(domain: "com.xxxx.yyyy", code: 0, userInfo: [NSLocalizedDescriptionKey: "Carrier not found"]))) return } let carrierName = carrier.carrierName ?? "Unknown" let mobileCountryCode = carrier.mobileCountryCode ?? "Unknown" let mobileNetworkCode = carrier.mobileNetworkCode ?? "Unknown" let radioAccessTechnology = networkInfo.serviceCurrentRadioAccessTechnology?.values.first ?? "Unknown" var connectionStatus = "Unknown" ... ... } Thank you for your assistance.

Just read about the new @concurrent option coming to Swift 6.2 and lover it, but... It just me, but I which these options would pick a case and stick with it... @Sendable @unchecked @MainActor @concurrent @Observable @ObservationIgnored

We are migrating to swift 6 from swift 5 using Xcode 16.2. we are getting below errors in almost each of our source code files : Call to main actor-isolated initializer 'init(storyboard:bundle:)' in a synchronous non isolated context Main actor-isolated property 'delegate' can not be mutated from a nonisolated context Call to main actor-isolated instance method 'register(cell:)' in a synchronous nonisolated context Call to main actor-isolated instance method 'setup()' in a synchronous nonisolated context Few questions related to these compile errors. Some of our functions arguments have default value set but swift 6 does not allow to set any default values. This requires a lot of code changes throughout the project. This would be lot of source code re-write. Using annotations like @uncheck sendable , @Sendable on the class (Main actor) name, lot of functions within those classes , having inside some code which coming from other classes which also showing main thread issue even we using @uncheck sendable. There are so many compile errors, we are still seeing other than what we have listed here. Fixing these compile errors throughout our project, would be like a re-write of our whole application, which would take lot of time. In order for us to migrate efficiently, we have few questions where we need your help with. Below are the questions. Are there any ways we can bypass these errors using any keywords or any other way possible? Can Swift 5 and Swift 6 co-exist? so, we can slowly migrate over a period of time.

I’m trying to create a property wrapper that that can manage shared state across any context, which can get notified if changes happen from somewhere else. I'm using mutex, and getting and setting values works great. However, I can't find a way to create an observer pattern that the property wrappers can use. The problem is that I can’t trigger a notification from a different thread/context, and have that notification get called on the correct thread of the parent object that the property wrapper is used within. I would like the property wrapper to work from anywhere: a SwiftUI view, an actor, or from a class that is created in the background. The notification preferably would get called synchronously if triggered from the same thread or actor, or otherwise asynchronously. I don’t have to worry about race conditions from the notification because the state only needs to reach eventuall consistency. Here's the simplified pseudo code of what I'm trying to accomplish: // A single source of truth storage container. final class MemoryShared<Value>: Sendable { let state = Mutex<Value>(0) func withLock(_ action: (inout Value) -> Void) { state.withLock(action) notifyObservers() } func get() -> Value func notifyObservers() func addObserver() } // Some shared state used across the app static let globalCount = MemoryShared<Int>(0) // A property wrapper to access the shared state and receive changes @propertyWrapper struct SharedState<Value> { public var wrappedValue: T { get { state.get() } nonmutating set { // Can't set directly } } var publisher: Publisher {} init(state: MemoryShared) { // ... } } // I'd like to use it in multiple places: @Observable class MyObservable { @SharedState(globalCount) var count: Int } actor MyBackgroundActor { @SharedState(globalCount) var count: Int } @MainActor struct MyView: View { @SharedState(globalCount) var count: Int } What I’ve Tried All of the examples below are using the property wrapper within a @MainActor class. However the same issue happens no matter what context I use the wrapper in: The notification callback is never called on the context the property wrapper was created with. I’ve tried using @isolated(any) to capture the context of the wrapper and save it to be called within the state in with unchecked sendable, which doesn’t work: final class MemoryShared<Value: Sendable>: Sendable { // Stores the callback for later. public func subscribe(callback: @escaping @isolated(any) (Value) -> Void) -> Subscription } @propertyWrapper struct SharedState<Value> { init(state: MemoryShared<Value>) { MainActor.assertIsolated() // Works! state.subscribe { MainActor.assertIsolated() // Fails self.publisher.send() } } } I’ve tried capturing the isolation within a task with AsyncStream. This actually compiles with no sendable issues, but still fails: @propertyWrapper struct SharedState<Value> { init(isolation: isolated (any Actor)? = #isolation, state: MemoryShared<Value>) { let (taskStream, continuation) = AsyncStream<Value>.makeStream() // The shared state sends new values to the continuation. subscription = state.subscribe(continuation: continuation) MainActor.assertIsolated() // Works! let task = Task { _ = isolation for await value in taskStream { _ = isolation MainActor.assertIsolated() // Fails } } } } I’ve tried using multiple combine subjects and publishers: final class MemoryShared<Value: Sendable>: Sendable { let subject: PassthroughSubject<T, Never> // ... var publisher: Publisher {} // ... } @propertyWrapper final class SharedState<Value> { var localSubject: Subject init(state: MemoryShared<Value>) { MainActor.assertIsolated() // Works! handle = localSubject.sink { MainActor.assertIsolated() // Fails } stateHandle = state.publisher.subscribe(localSubject) } } I’ve also tried: Using NotificationCenter Making the property wrapper a class Using NSKeyValueObserving Using a box class that is stored within the wrapper. Using @_inheritActorContext. All of these don’t work, because the event is never called from the thread the property wrapper resides in. Is it possible at all to create an observation system that notifies the observer from the same context as where the observer was created? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I've been searching all over the web trying to find the proper way to get all records created by a specific user in CloudKit. I am able to get the correct id using: guard let userRecordID = try? await container.userRecordID() else { return } I can see that the id returned is associated with records in my CloudKit dashboard. So I would expect that the following would get those records: let predicate = NSPredicate(format: "%K == %@", #keyPath(CKRecord.creatorUserRecordID), userRecordID) let query = CKQuery(recordType: "CKUser", predicate: predicate) But instead when I use that query it returns nothing. It is successful but with nothing returned... Any ideas why this would be happening? P.S. I have also tried constructing the predicate using the reference, but I get the same result - success with no results. P.S.2 Also worth mentioning that I am trying to get the results from the public database and I have set my CKContainer to the correct container id.

No real intruduction for this, so I'll get to the point: All this code is on GitHub: https://github.com/the-trumpeter/Timetaber-for-iWatch But first, sorry; /* I got roasted, last time I posted; for not defining my stuff. This'll be different, but's gonna be rough; 'cuz there's lots and lots to get through: */ //this is 'Timetaber Watch App/Define (No expressions)/Courses_vDef.swift' on the GitHub: struct Course { let name: String let icon: String let room: String let colour: String let listName: String let listIcon: String let joke: String init(name: String, icon: String, room: String? = nil, colour: String, listName: String? = nil, listIcon: String? = nil, joke: String? = nil) { self.name = name self.icon = icon self.room = room ?? "None" self.colour = colour self.listName = listName ?? name self.listIcon = listIcon ?? (icon+".circle.fill") self.joke = joke ??

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)?

I'm continuing with the migration towards Swift 6. Within one of our libraries, I want to check whether a parameter object: Any? confirms to Sendable. I tried the most obvious one: if let sendable = object as? Sendable { } But that results into the compiler error "Marker protocol 'Sendable' cannot be used in a conditional cast". Is there an other way to do this?

I have an @objC used for notification. kTag is an Int constant, fieldBeingEdited is an Int variable. The following code fails at compilation with error: Command CompileSwift failed with a nonzero exit code if I capture self (I edited code, to have minimal case) @objc func keyboardDone(_ sender : UIButton) { DispatchQueue.main.async { [self] () -> Void in switch fieldBeingEdited { case kTag : break default : break } } } If I explicitly use self, it compiles, even with self captured: @objc func keyboardDone(_ sender : UIButton) { DispatchQueue.main.async { [self] () -> Void in switch fieldBeingEdited { // <<-- no need for self here case self.kTag : break // <<-- self here default : break } } } This compiles as well: @objc func keyboardDone(_ sender : UIButton) { DispatchQueue.main.async { () -> Void in switch self.fieldBeingEdited { // <<-- no need for self here case self.kTag : break // <<-- self here default : break } } } Is it a compiler bug or am I missing something ?

I am writing a SPM based project for MacOS. In this project? I need to access MacOS Keychain. I am write a swift test built by SPM testTarget(). I can see it generates a bundle ./.build/x86_64-apple-macosx/debug/MyProjectTests.xctest with an executable: % file ./.build/x86_64-apple-macosx/debug/MyProjectPackageTests.xctest/Contents/MacOS/MyProjectPackageTests ./.build/x86_64-apple-macosx/debug/MyProjectPackageTests.xctest/Contents/MacOS/MyProjectPackageTests: Mach-O 64-bit bundle x86_64 This bundle file cannot be executed. How can I execute its tests? I tried with xcodebuild test-without-building -xctestrun ./.build/x86_64-apple-macosx/debug/MyProjectPackageTests.xctest -destination 'platform=macOS' without any chance. Obviously the next question is can I 'simply' add entitlement to this bundle with codesign to fix my enttilement error. My error when running the test is A required entitlement isn't present.

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.

I was a long time C# programmer, and recently started learning Rust. Now that I recently purchased my first Mac, I ran into several issues trying to run binaries on the Mac, due to various restrictions. On another forum post here, it was mentioned that I should take a look at Swift, as a development tool. This comment brings up an entirely new topic for me, as I discovered that the Swift project file structure seems daunting. But first let's backtrack to when I used C#. C# The first graphic show the default file structure that I used to start a new C# project. I would copy this entire folder structure to the clipboard and paste it where my new project folder was located, and start coding. Using this same principle, I wrote my own music player, and again the file structure for the entire project was as below. For those that may not know, the "bin" folder contains both debug and release folders and appropriate contents. Swift I created a Windows UI called "Test" using Swift, and then started poking around the file system, trying to determine the file structure that was created. Unbeknownst to me at the time, part of the project files ended up on the Desktop in a folder called Test. I did not expect Swift to place the files there. When I click on the Test folder and look inside, I see a file with a "xcodeproj" extension, which makes sense to me, as this is similar to C#. What I don't see however, is any file labeled Test.App. I also don't see either debug or release folders for this project. Obviously there are additional files for this project that are "somewhere", just not in a location I am aware of.

Does anyone know if there will be a Swift 6 version of "The Swift Programming Language" book and if so, when it will be released for Apple Books?

Hi, I have issue on build my react native project and got this error "Undefined symbol: _swift_willThrowTypedImpl" how can I fix it?

Hey team I'm facing an issue where startDate is 1 January 2025 and endDate is 31 March 2025 between this 2 dates is 90 days, but on my code is being taken as 89 days I've seen the math of the code excludes the first partial day (from midnight to 06:00) on 2025-01-01, which results in 89 full days instead of 90 days. startDate: 2025-01-01 06:00:00 +0000 endDate: 2025-03-31 06:00:00 +0000 this is my function func daysBetweenDates() -> Int? { guard let selectedStartDate = selectedStartDate?.date else { return nil } guard let selectedEndDate = selectedEndDate?.date else { return 0 } let calendar = Calendar.current let dateComponents = calendar.dateComponents([.day], from: selectedStartDate, to: selectedEndDate) return dateComponents.day } what I've tried is reset the hours to 0 so it can take the full day and return 90 days like this func daysBetweenDates() -> Int? { guard let selectedStartDate = selectedStartDate?.date else { return nil } guard let selectedEndDate = selectedEndDate?.date else { return 0 } var calendar = Calendar(identifier: .gregorian) calendar.timeZone = TimeZone(secondsFromGMT: 0) ?? .current let cleanMidNightStartDate = calendar.startOfDay(for: selectedStartDate) let cleanMidNightEndDate = calendar.startOfDay(for: selectedEndDate.addingTimeInterval(24 * 60 * 60)) let dateComponents = calendar.dateComponents([.day], from: cleanMidNightStartDate, to: cleanMidNightEndDate) let daysCount = dateComponents.day ?? 0 return daysCount } this worked for that date specifically but when I tried to change the date for example startDate: 18 December 2024. endDate: 18 March 2025. between those dates we have 90 days but this function now reads 91. what I'm looking is a cleaver solution for this problem so I can have the best posible quality code, thanks in advance!

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?
