Link to a Precompiled Static C Library in a Swift Library Package
I want to build a Swift library package that uses modified build of OpenSSL and Curl. I have already statically compiled both and verified I can use them in an Objective-C framework on my target platform (iOS & iOS Simulator). I'm using XCFramework files that contain the static library binaries and headers: openssl.xcframework/ ios-arm64/ openssl.framework/ Headers/ [...] openssl ios-arm64_x86_64-simulator/ openssl.framework/ Headers/ [...] openssl Info.plist I'm not sure how I'm supposed to set up my Swift package to import these libraries. I can use .systemLibrary but that seems to use the embedded copies of libssl and libcurl on my system, and I can't figure out how to use the path: parameter to that. I also tried using a .binaryTarget pointing to the XCFramework files, but that didn't seem to work as there is no module generated and I'm not sure how to make one myself. At a basic high level, this is what I'm trying to accomplish: where libcrypto & libssl come from the provided openssl.xcframework file, and libcurl from curl.xcframework

Cast Any to Sendable
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?

Exclude C runtime library from linking?
Hi, I am writing my own little toy programming language and when I try to link the binary object file (.o file) it requires a _main symbol. I wonder if there is a way to exclude this, presumably, a C runtime requirement? Is it safe to provide a stub _main symbol, or provide a the _main as the entry point to my own little runtime? What is the correct way to invoke the linker with the appropriate flags?

Peculiar EXC_BAD_ACCESS, involving sparse matrices
Helo all, Currently, I'm working on an iOS app that performs measurement and shows the results to the user in a graph. I use a Savitzky-Golay filter to filter out noise, so that the graph is nice and smooth. However, the code that calculates the Savitzky-Golay coefficients using sparse matrices crashes sometimes, throwing an EXC_BAD_ACCESS. I tried to find out what the problem is by turning on Address Sanitizer and Thread Sanitizer, but, for some reason, the bad access exception isn't thrown when either of these is on. What else could I try to trace back the problem? Thanks in advance, CaS To reproduce the error, run the following: import SwiftUI import Accelerate struct ContentView: View { var body: some View { VStack { Button("Try", action: test) } .padding() } func test() { for windowLength in 3...100 { let coeffs = SavitzkyGolay.coefficients(windowLength: windowLength, polynomialOrder: 2) print(coeffs) } } } class SavitzkyGolay { static func coefficients(windowLength: Int, polynomialOrder: Int, derivativeOrder: Int = 0, delta: Int = 1) -> [Double] { let (halfWindow, remainder) = windowLength.quotientAndRemainder(dividingBy: 2) var pos = Double(halfWindow) if remainder == 0 { pos -= 0.5 } let X = [Double](stride(from: Double(windowLength) - pos - 1, through: -pos, by: -1)) let P = [Double](stride(from: 0, through: Double(polynomialOrder), by: 1)) let A = P.map { exponent in X.map { pow($0, exponent) } } var B = [Double](repeating: 0, count: polynomialOrder + 1) B[derivativeOrder] = Double(factorial(derivativeOrder)) / pow(Double(delta), Double(derivativeOrder)) return leastSquaresSolution(A: A, B: B) } static func leastSquaresSolution(A: [[Double]], B: [Double]) -> [Double] { let sparseA = A.sparseMatrix() var sparseAValuesCopy = sparseA.values var xValues = [Double](repeating: 0, count: A.transpose().count) var bValues = B sparseAValuesCopy.withUnsafeMutableBufferPointer { valuesPtr in let a = SparseMatrix_Double( structure: sparseA.structure, data: valuesPtr.baseAddress! ) bValues.withUnsafeMutableBufferPointer { bPtr in xValues.withUnsafeMutableBufferPointer { xPtr in let b = DenseVector_Double( count: Int32(B.count), data: bPtr.baseAddress! ) let x = DenseVector_Double( count: Int32(A.transpose().count), data: xPtr.baseAddress! ) #warning("EXC_BAD_ACCESS is thrown below") print("This code is executed...") let status = SparseSolve(SparseLSMR(), a, b, x, SparsePreconditionerDiagScaling) print("...but, if an EXC_BAD_ACCESS is thrown, this code isn't") if status != SparseIterativeConverged { fatalError("Failed to converge. Returned with error \(status).") } } } } return xValues } } func factorial(_ n: Int) -> Int { n < 2 ? 1 : n * factorial(n - 1) } extension Array where Element == [Double] { func sparseMatrix() -> (structure: SparseMatrixStructure, values: [Double]) { let columns = self.transpose() var rowIndices: [Int32] = columns.map { column in column.indices.compactMap { indexInColumn in if column[indexInColumn] != 0 { return Int32(indexInColumn) } return nil } }.reduce([], +) let sparseColumns = columns.map { column in column.compactMap { if $0 != 0 { return $0 } return nil } } var counter = 0 var columnStarts = [Int]() for sparseColumn in sparseColumns { columnStarts.append(counter) counter += sparseColumn.count } let reducedSparseColumns = sparseColumns.reduce([], +) columnStarts.append(reducedSparseColumns.count) let structure: SparseMatrixStructure = rowIndices.withUnsafeMutableBufferPointer { rowIndicesPtr in columnStarts.withUnsafeMutableBufferPointer { columnStartsPtr in let attributes = SparseAttributes_t() return SparseMatrixStructure( rowCount: Int32(self.count), columnCount: Int32(columns.count), columnStarts: columnStartsPtr.baseAddress!, rowIndices: rowIndicesPtr.baseAddress!, attributes: attributes, blockSize: 1 ) } } return (structure, reducedSparseColumns) } func transpose() -> Self { let columns = self.count let rows = self.reduce(0) { Swift.max($0, $1.count) } return (0 ..< rows).reduce(into: []) { result, row in result.append((0 ..< columns).reduce(into: []) { result, column in result.append(row < self[column].count ? self[column][row] : 0) }) } } }

Swift Syntax Comment Trivia - Expected prefixes
Hello! I am working on a project that does some automatic code generation using SwiftSyntax and SwiftSyntaxBuilder. As part of this project, I want to put in a comment at the top of the file warning users to not modify the file and make it obvious that the code was automatically generated. I was trying to use the .lineComment(String) static member of the Trivia (or TriviaPiece) types and I expected that the comment would automatically be prefixed with the expected // and space for use in code. (For example, Trivia.lineComment("No comment") would be written as // No Comment when sent through a BasicFormat Object or similar SyntaxRewriter). I was surprised to find that this is not the case and was wondering before I write an issue on GitHub whether this behavior is intentional or a bug. If it is intentional, I'm not entirely sure if I'm missing something regarding this to more easily generate these comments. At the moment my comment generation consists of constructing the comment in the leadingTrivia of the syntax node that appears after the comment. For example: VariableDeclSyntax(leadingTrivia: [.newlines(2), .lineComment("// These members are always generated irrespective of the contents of the generated files. They are intended to exclusively centralize code symbols that would otherwise be repeated frequently."), .newlines(1)], modifiers: [DeclModifierSyntax(name: .keyword(.private)), DeclModifierSyntax(name: .keyword(.static))], .let, name: PatternSyntax(IdentifierPatternSyntax(identifier: "decoder")), initializer: InitializerClauseSyntax(value: ExprSyntax(stringLiteral: "\(configuration.decoderExpression)"))) outputs // These members are always generated irrespective of the contents of the generated files. They are intended to exclusively centralize code symbols that would otherwise be repeated frequently. private static let decoder = JSONDecoder() in this project (with example data having been added).

dateFromString results in nil
In a completely new project using Objective-C, when using "NSDateFormatter" under the conditions mentioned, setting initWithLocaleIdentifier to "NSCalendarIdentifierGregorian" results in "dateFromString" returning nil. This issue is occurring specifically in iOS 18 beta 1 and 2, and it's causing me significant trouble. This process works correctly on iOS 17 and earlier versions. NSDateFormatter *formatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init]; [formatter setTimeStyle:NSDateFormatterFullStyle]; [formatter setLocale:[[NSLocale alloc] initWithLocaleIdentifier:NSCalendarIdentifierGregorian]]; [formatter setDateFormat:formatStr]; NSDate *date = [formatter dateFromString:formatStr]; "date" is nil.

Automatic Grammar Agreement with formatted number: use integer value to switch categories
Hello, I want to use Automatic Grammar Agreement to localise a string in my app, let say "three remaining activities". The string "three" is obtained by using a NumberFormatter with a numberStyle set to .spellOut (so I'm not using an Integer) var formatter: NumberFormatter = NumberFormatter() formatter.numberStyle = .spellOut let formattedCount: String = numberFormatter.string(from: count as NSNumber)! Text("key_with_string_\(formattedCount)") In my string catalog, I have translated the key key_with_string_%@ like this ^[%@ remaining activity](inflect: true), but it does not work. I've tried to add the integer value used by the number formatter in the key key_with_string_%@_%lld but it does not work. Should Automatic Grammar Agreement work normally just by using the formatted string provided by the NumberFormatter? If not, is there a way to specify to use a secondary variable (my count integer) to switch between different categories like one and other automatically? Thanks ! Axel

Issue with Swift and C++ Interoperability: Passing void pointer between Swift and C++
Hello everyone, I'm encountering an issue with Swift and C++ interoperability when passing a void pointer between Swift and C++ functions. When I pass pMessageBuffer (an UnsafeMutableRawPointer) from Swift to MyCppClass.NFCompletion (a static c++ function), which expects a reference to void pointer, Swift throws an error "Cannot convert value of type 'UnsafeMutableRawPointer' to expected argument type 'Optional' ". Here is a sample code to help in better visualization of the usecase. Cpp Code class MyCppClass { public: static void SendData(void *pMessage, TUInt16 pMessageLength) { // Assume vSocket is my Swift object held in C++. vSocket.Send(pMessage, pMessageLength); } static void NFCompletion(void * & pBuffer, TInt64 pErrorCode, VPtr pCompletionFunction) { // Process the buffer. } }; Swift Code: public class MySwiftClass { var vConnection: NWConnection? public init() {} public func Send(_ pMessageBuffer: UnsafeMutableRawPointer, _ pMessageLength: TSUInt16) { let messageData = Data(bytesNoCopy: pMessageBuffer, count: Int(pMessageLength), deallocator: .none) self.vConnection?.send(content: messageData, completion: .contentProcessed { nw_error in var error_code: TSInt64 = 0 if let nw_error = nw_error { error_code = self.InternalGetNetworkErrorCode(nw_error) } // Here's where the issue arises: MyCppClass.NFCompletion(pMessageBuffer, TInt64(error_code), self.uCompletionHandler) }) } // Example function to handle network errors private func InternalGetNetworkErrorCode(_ error: Error) -> TSInt64 { // Implementation to convert nw_error to TSInt64 error code return 0 // Placeholder return value } } Could someone please help me understand why this conversion error occurs? How should I correctly handle passing a void pointer between Swift and C++ functions, ensuring compatibility and proper memory management? Note: TSInt64 is typealias for swift Int and TInt64 is alias of c++ int_64t. Thank you in advance for your assistance! Regards, Harshal

Data storage for a Matrix struct when working with Accelerate
I have a Matrix structure as defined below for working with 2D numerical data in Accelerate. The underlying numerical data in this Matrix struct is stored as an Array. struct Matrix<T> { let rows: Int let columns: Int var data: [T] init(rows: Int, columns: Int, fill: T) { self.rows = rows self.columns = columns self.data = Array(repeating: fill, count: rows * columns) } init(rows: Int, columns: Int, source: (inout UnsafeMutableBufferPointer<T>) -> Void) { self.rows = rows self.columns = columns self.data = Array(unsafeUninitializedCapacity: rows * columns) { buffer, initializedCount in source(&buffer) initializedCount = rows * columns } } subscript(row: Int, column: Int) -> T { get { return self.data[(row * self.columns) + column] } set { self.data[(row * self.columns) + column] = newValue } } } Multiplication is implemented by the functions shown below. import Accelerate infix operator .* func .* (lhs: Matrix<Double>, rhs: Matrix<Double>) -> Matrix<Double> { precondition(lhs.rows == rhs.rows && lhs.columns == rhs.columns, "Matrices must have same dimensions") let result = Matrix<Double>(rows: lhs.rows, columns: rhs.columns) { buffer in vDSP.multiply(lhs.data, rhs.data, result: &buffer) } return result } func * (lhs: Matrix<Double>, rhs: Matrix<Double>) -> Matrix<Double> { precondition(lhs.columns == rhs.rows, "Number of columns in left matrix must equal number of rows in right matrix") var a = lhs.data var b = rhs.data let m = lhs.rows // number of rows in matrices A and C let n = rhs.columns // number of columns in matrices B and C let k = lhs.columns // number of columns in matrix A; number of rows in matrix B let alpha = 1.0 let beta = 0.0 // matrix multiplication where C ← αAB + βC let c = Matrix<Double>(rows: lhs.rows, columns: rhs.columns) { buffer in cblas_dgemm(CblasRowMajor, CblasNoTrans, CblasNoTrans, m, n, k, alpha, &a, k, &b, n, beta, buffer.baseAddress, n) } return c } I can also define a Matrix structure where the underlying data is an UnsafeMutableBufferPointer. The buffer is handled by the MatrixData class. struct Matrix<T> { let rows: Int let columns: Int var data: MatrixData<T> init(rows: Int, columns: Int, fill: T) { self.rows = rows self.columns = columns self.data = MatrixData(count: rows * columns, fill: fill) } init(rows: Int, columns: Int) { self.rows = rows self.columns = columns self.data = MatrixData(count: rows * columns) } subscript(row: Int, column: Int) -> T { get { return self.data.buffer[(row * self.columns) + column] } set { self.data.buffer[(row * self.columns) + column] = newValue } } } class MatrixData<T> { var buffer: UnsafeMutableBufferPointer<T> var baseAddress: UnsafeMutablePointer<T> { get { self.buffer.baseAddress! } } init(count: Int, fill: T) { let start = UnsafeMutablePointer<T>.allocate(capacity: count) self.buffer = UnsafeMutableBufferPointer(start: start, count: count) self.buffer.initialize(repeating: fill) } init(count: Int) { let start = UnsafeMutablePointer<T>.allocate(capacity: count) self.buffer = UnsafeMutableBufferPointer(start: start, count: count) } deinit { self.buffer.deinitialize() self.buffer.deallocate() } } Multiplication for this approach is implemented by the functions shown here. import Accelerate infix operator .* func .* (lhs: Matrix<Double>, rhs: Matrix<Double>) -> Matrix<Double> { precondition(lhs.rows == rhs.rows && lhs.columns == rhs.columns, "Matrices must have same dimensions") let result = Matrix<Double>(rows: lhs.rows, columns: lhs.columns) vDSP.multiply(lhs.data.buffer, rhs.data.buffer, result: &result.data.buffer) return result } func * (lhs: Matrix<Double>, rhs: Matrix<Double>) -> Matrix<Double> { precondition(lhs.columns == rhs.rows, "Number of columns in left matrix must equal number of rows in right matrix") let a = lhs.data.baseAddress let b = rhs.data.baseAddress let m = lhs.rows // number of rows in matrices A and C let n = rhs.columns // number of columns in matrices B and C let k = lhs.columns // number of columns in matrix A; number of rows in matrix B let alpha = 1.0 let beta = 0.0 // matrix multiplication where C ← αAB + βC let c = Matrix<Double>(rows: lhs.rows, columns: rhs.columns) cblas_dgemm(CblasRowMajor, CblasNoTrans, CblasNoTrans, m, n, k, alpha, a, k, b, n, beta, c.data.baseAddress, n) return c } Both of these approaches give me similar performance. The only difference that I have noticed is the matrix buffer approach allows for reference semantics. For example, the code below uses half the memory with the matrix buffer approach compared to the matrix array approach. This is because b acts as a reference to a using the matrix buffer approach; otherwise, the matrix array approach makes a full copy of a. let n = 10_000 let a = Matrix<Double>(rows: n, columns: n, fill: 0) var b = a b[0, 0] = 99 b[0, 1] = 22 Other than reference semantics, are there any reasons to use one of these approaches over the other?
