@Observable class not compatible with Codable?
So any time I create a class that's both @Observable and Codable, e.g. @Observable class GameLocationManager : Codable { I get a warning in the macro expansion code: @ObservationIgnored private let _$observationRegistrar = Observation.ObservationRegistrar() Immutable property will not be decoded because it is declared with an initial value which cannot be overwritten. I've been ignoring them for now, but there are at least a half a dozen of them now in my (relatively small) codebase, and I'd like to find a solution (ideally one that doesn't require me to write init(decoder:) for every @Observable class in my project...), especially since I'm not sure what the actual consequences of ignoring this might be.

Widget Intent Configuration doesn't work in Swift 6
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.

Swift 6 crash calling requestAutomaticPassPresentationSuppression
I found a similar problem here https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/764777 and I could solve my problem by wrapping the call to requestAutomaticPassPresentationSuppression in a call to DispatchQueue.global().async. But my question is if this is really how things should work. Even with strict concurrency warnings in Swift 6 I don't get any warnings. Just a runtime crash. How are we supposed to find these problems? Couldn't the compiler assist with a warning/error. Why does the compiler make the assumptions it does about the method that is declared like this: @available(iOS 9.0, *) open class func requestAutomaticPassPresentationSuppression(responseHandler: @escaping (PKAutomaticPassPresentationSuppressionResult) -> Void) -> PKSuppressionRequestToken Now that we have migrated to Swift 6 our code base contains a bunch of unknown places where it will crash as above.

DebugDescription macro causing “String Interpolation” warnings
Using the DebugDescription macro to display an optional value produces a “String interpolation produces a debug description for an optional value” build warning. For example: @DebugDescription struct MyType: CustomDebugStringConvertible { let optionalValue: String? public var debugDescription: String { "Value: \(optionalValue)" } } The DebugDescription macro does not allow (it is an error) "Value: \(String(describing: optionalValue))" or "Value: \(optionalValue ?? "nil")" because “Only references to stored properties are allowed.” Is there a way to reconcile these? I have a build log full of these warnings, obscuring real issues.

clang multiarch doens't work with precompiled headers
So I found out clang can do multiarch compiles (-arch arm64 -arch x86_64). But Apple seems to have left precompiled header support out. So I built the pch separately for each arch. That all works. The next problem is that one needs to specify -include-pch foo.x64.pch and -include-pch foo.arm64.pch on the command line. This doesn't work on the compile line, since it tries to prepend arm64 AST to a x64 .o file, and vice versa. So there is -Xarch_arm64 and -Xarch_x86_64 . But that option is limited to one argument. But "-include-pch foo.x64.pch" is two arguments. More details of failed attempts here: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/114626 And no splitting out the builds isn't the same, because then -valid_arch I don't think skips the other build. This are all libraries being built by Make, and then the universal app built using an Xcode project from the libraries.

NSPredicate return wrong result
NSPredicate(format: "SELF MATCHES %@", "^[0-9A-Z]+$").evaluate(with: "126𝒥ℰℬℬ𝒢𝒦𝒮33") Returns true, and I don't know why. 𝒥ℰℬℬ𝒢𝒦𝒮 is not between 0-9 and A-Z, and why it returns true? How to avoid similar problem like this when using NSPredicate?

How to create an array using a loop
Hello, Please can you tell me how to create an array of dictionaries? This code below should create 4 dictionaries in an array, but I'm getting these errors: For line "var output = [id: "testID", name: "testName"]": cannot find 'name' in scope Type '(any AnyObject).Type' cannot conform to 'Hashable' For line "return output": Type '(any AnyObject).Type' cannot conform to 'Hashable' var quotes: [(id: String, name: String)] { var output = [[(id: String, name: String)]] () for i in 1...4 { var output = [id: "testID", name: "testName"] } return output }

Understanding an assertion failure in a crash log
Last night my iPhone game crashed while running in debug mode on my iPhone. I just plugged it into my Mac, and was able to find the ips file. The stack trace shows the function in my app where it crashed, and then a couple of frames in libswiftCore.dylib before an assertion failure. My question is - I've got absolutely no idea what the assertion failure actually was, all I have is... 0 libswiftCore.dylib 0x1921412a0 closure #1 in closure #1 in closure #1 in _assertionFailure(_:_:file:line:flags:) + 228 1 libswiftCore.dylib 0x192141178 closure #1 in closure #1 in _assertionFailure(_:_:file:line:flags:) + 327 2 libswiftCore.dylib 0x192140b4c _assertionFailure(_:_:file:line:flags:) + 183 3 MyGame.debug.dylib 0x104e52818 SentryBrain.takeTurn(actor:) + 1240 ... How do I figure out what the assertion failure was that triggered the crash? How do I figure out what line of code in takeTurn(...) triggered the failing assertion failure?

iOS Share Extension Warning: Passing argument of non-sendable type outside of main actor-isolated context may introduce data races
Consider this simple miniature of my iOS Share Extension: import SwiftUI import Photos class ShareViewController: UIViewController { override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() if let itemProviders = (extensionContext?.inputItems.first as?

URL else { return } try await downloadAndSaveMedia(reelURL: url.absoluteString) extensionContext?.completeRequest(returningItems: []) } catch {} } } On the line 34 guard let url = try await itemProvider.loadItem ... I get these warnings: Passing argument of non-sendable type '[AnyHashable : Any]?' outside of main actor-isolated context may introduce data races; this is an error in the Swift 6 language mode 1.1.

AsyncStream does not cancel inner Task
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.

Crash with Incorrect actor executor assumption
I'm seeing a crash compiling with Swift 6 that I can reproduce with the following code. It crashes with "Incorrect actor executor assumption". Is there something that the compiler should be warning about so that this isn't a runtime crash? Note - if I use a for in loop instead of the .forEach closure, the crash does not happen. Is the compiler somehow inferring the wrong isolation domain for the closure? import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { var body: some View { Text("Hello, world!") .task { _ = try? await MyActor(store: MyStore()) } } } actor MyActor { var credentials = [String]() init(store: MyStore) async throws { try await store.persisted.forEach { credentials.append($0) } } } final class MyStore: Sendable { var persisted: [String] { get async throws { return ["abc"] } } } The stack trace is: * thread #6, queue = 'com.apple.root.user-initiated-qos.cooperative', stop reason = signal SIGABRT frame #0: 0x0000000101988f30 libsystem_kernel.dylib`__pthread_kill + 8 frame #1: 0x0000000100e2f124 libsystem_pthread.dylib`pthread_kill + 256 frame #2: 0x000000018016c4ec libsystem_c.dylib`abort + 104 frame #3: 0x00000002444c944c libswift_Concurrency.dylib`swift::swift_Concurrency_fatalErrorv(unsigned int, char const*, char*) + 28 frame #4: 0x00000002444c9468 libswift_Concurrency.dylib`swift::swift_Concurrency_fatalError(unsigned int, char const*, ...) + 28 frame #5: 0x00000002444c90e0 libswift_Concurrency.dylib`swift_task_checkIsolated + 152 frame #6: 0x00000002444c63e0 libswift_Concurrency.dylib`swift_task_isCurrentExecutorImpl(swift::SerialExecutorRef) + 284 frame #7: 0x0000000100d58944 IncorrectActorExecutorAssumption.debug.dylib`closure #1 in MyActor.init($0="abc") at <stdin>:0 frame #8: 0x0000000100d58b94 IncorrectActorExecutorAssumption.debug.dylib`partial apply for closure #1 in MyActor.init(store:) at <compiler-generated>:0 frame #9: 0x00000001947f8c80 libswiftCore.dylib`Swift.Sequence.forEach((τ_0_0.Element) throws -> ()) throws -> () + 428 * frame #10: 0x0000000100d58748 IncorrectActorExecutorAssumption.debug.dylib`MyActor.init(store=0x0000600000010ba0) at ContentView.swift:27:35 frame #11: 0x0000000100d57734 IncorrectActorExecutorAssumption.debug.dylib`closure #1 in ContentView.body.getter at ContentView.swift:14:32 frame #12: 0x0000000100d57734 IncorrectActorExecutorAssumption.debug.dylib`closure #1 in ContentView.body.getter at ContentView.swift:14:32 frame #13: 0x00000001d1817138 SwiftUI`(1) await resume partial function for partial apply forwarder for closure #1 () async -> () in closure #1 (inout Swift.TaskGroup<()>) async -> () in closure #1 () async -> () in SwiftUI.AppDelegate.application(_: __C.UIApplication, handleEventsForBackgroundURLSession: Swift.String, completionHandler: () -> ()) -> () frame #14: 0x00000001d17b1e48 SwiftUI`(1) await resume partial function for dispatch thunk of static SwiftUI.PreviewModifier.makeSharedContext() async throws -> τ_0_0.Context frame #15: 0x00000001d19c10c0 SwiftUI`(1) await resume partial function for generic specialization <()> of reabstraction thunk helper <τ_0_0 where τ_0_0: Swift.Sendable> from @escaping @isolated(any) @callee_guaranteed @async () -> (@out τ_0_0) to @escaping @callee_guaranteed @async () -> (@out τ_0_0, @error @owned Swift.Error) frame #16: 0x00000001d17b1e48 SwiftUI`(1) await resume partial function for dispatch thunk of static SwiftUI.PreviewModifier.makeSharedContext() async throws -> τ_0_0.Context

Use FormatStyle to print formatted values from a Vector structure
I'm trying to use FormatStyle from Foundation to format numbers when printing a vector structure. See code below. import Foundation struct Vector<T> { var values: [T] subscript(item: Int) -> T { get { values[item] } set { values[item] = newValue } } } extension Vector: CustomStringConvertible { var description: String { var desc = "( " desc += values.map { "\($0)" }.joined(separator: " ") desc += " )" return desc } } extension Vector { func formatted<F: FormatStyle>(_ style: F) -> String where F.FormatInput == T, F.FormatOutput == String { var desc = "( " desc += values.map { style.format($0) }.joined(separator: " ") desc += " )" return desc } } In the example below, the vector contains a mix of integer and float literals. The result is a vector with a type of Vector<Double>. Since the values of the vector are inferred as Double then I expect the print output to display as decimal numbers. However, the .number formatted output seems to ignore the vector type and print the values as a mix of integers and decimals. This is fixed by explicitly providing a format style with a fraction length. So why is the .formatted(.number) method ignoring the vector type T which is Double in this example? let vec = Vector(values: [-2, 5.5, 100, 19, 4, 8.37]) print(vec) print(vec.formatted(.number)) print(vec.formatted(.number.precision(.fractionLength(1...)))) ( -2.0 5.5 100.0 19.0 4.0 8.37 ) // correct output that uses all Double types ( -2 5.5 100 19 4 8.37 ) // wrong output that uses Int and Double types ( -2.0 5.5 100.0 19.0 4.0 8.37 ) // correct output that uses all Double types

Use of `for await` with `AyncStream`, and yielding async closures to its continuation
Hello, I was hoping to clarify my understanding of the use of for await with an AsyncStream. My use case is, I'd like to yield async closures to the stream's continuation, with the idea that, when I use for await with the stream to process and execute the closures, it would only continue on to the following closure once the current closure has been run to completion. At a high level, I am trying to implement in-order execution of async closures in the context of re-entrancy. An example of asynchronous work I want to execute is a network call that should write to a database: func syncWithRemote() async -> Void { let data = await fetchDataFromNetwork() await writeToLocalDatabase(data) } For the sake of example, I'll call the intended manager of closure submission SingleOperationRunner. where, at a use site such as this, my desired outcome is that call 1 of syncWithRemote() is always completed before call 2 of it: let singleOperationRunner = SingleOperationRunner(priority: nil) singleOperationRunner.run { syncWithRemote() } singleOperationRunner.run { syncWithRemote() } My sketch implementation looks like this: public final class SingleOperationRunner { private let continuation: AsyncStream<() async -> Void>.Continuation public init(priority: TaskPriority?) { let (stream, continuation) = AsyncStream.makeStream(of: (() async -> Void).self) self.continuation = continuation Task.detached(priority: priority) { // Will this loop only continue when the `await operation()` completes? for await operation in stream { await operation() } } } public func run(operation: @escaping () async -> Void) { continuation.yield(operation) } deinit { continuation.finish() } } The resources I've found are https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2022-110351/?time=1445 and https://forums.swift.org/t/swift-async-func-to-run-sequentially/60939/2 but do not think I have fully put the pieces together, so would appreciate any help!

How to run `xctest` bundle - or how to add `entitlement` to test?
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.

Swift / C++ Interop with Storekit - actor isolated structure cannot be exported to C++
I can't find a viable path to call StoreKit from C++ right now and would love some ideas. I'm implementing the code exactly as shown at 4:09 in https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2023/10172/ However when I add any StoreKit functionality in I immediately get "Actor isolated structure cannot be exposed in C++" This makes me think I can't create a StoreKit view and call it from C++? Am I missing a better way? I don't think I can have another structure that holds the storeChooser in it because it will have the same problem (I assume, although I will check). Part of the issue seems to be that my app is C++ so there is no main function called in the swift for me to open this view with either, I was going to use the present function Zoe described (as below). I've tried a lot of alternative approaches but it seems to be blocking async functions from showing in C++ as well. So I'm not sure how to access the basic product(for:) and purchase(product) functions. import Foundation import StoreKit import SwiftUI public struct storeChooser: View { public var productIDs: [String] public var fetchError: String //@State //Note this is from the UI @State public var products: [Product] = [] // @State private var isPresented = true // weak private var host: UIViewController? = nil public init() { productIDs = ["20_super_crystals_v1"] products = [] self.fetchError = "untried" } public var body: some View { VStack(spacing: 20) { Text( "Products") ForEach(self.products) { product in Button { //dont do anything yet } label: { Text("\(product.displayPrice) - \(product.displayName)") } } }.task { do { try await self.loadProducts() } catch { print(error) } } } public func queryProducts() { Task { do { try await self.loadProducts() } catch { print(error) } } } public func getProduct1Name() -> String { if self.products.count > 0 { return self.products[0].displayName } else { return "empty" } } private func loadProducts() async throws { self.products = try await Product.products(for: self.productIDs) } /* public mutating func present(_ viewController: UIViewController) { isPresented = true; let host = UIHostingController(rootView: self) host.rootView.host = host viewController.present(host, animated: true) } */ }

How to implement thread-safe property wrapper notifications across different contexts in Swift?
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!
