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? NSExtensionItem)?.attachments {
let hostingView = UIHostingController(rootView: ShareView(extensionContext: extensionContext, itemProviders: itemProviders))
hostingView.view.frame = view.frame
view.addSubview(hostingView.view)
}
}
}
struct ShareView: View {
var extensionContext: NSExtensionContext?
var itemProviders: [NSItemProvider]
var body: some View {
VStack{}
.task{
await extractItems()
}
}
func extractItems() async {
guard let itemProvider = itemProviders.first else { return }
guard itemProvider.hasItemConformingToTypeIdentifier(UTType.url.identifier) else { return }
do {
guard let url = try await itemProvider.loadItem(forTypeIdentifier: UTType.url.identifier) 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. Generic enum 'Optional' does not conform to the 'Sendable' protocol (Swift.Optional)

2.2. Class 'NSItemProvider' does not conform to the 'Sendable' protocol (Foundation.NSItemProvider)
How to fix them in Xcode 16?
Please provide a solution which works, and not the one which might (meaning you run the same code in Xcode, add your solution and see no warnings).

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!

@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 {

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
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!
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

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.
Hello,
I have a json array showing in Xcode debugger (from the line "print(dataString)"):

But my JSON decoder is throwing the catch error "Error in JSON parsing"
This is the code:
super.viewDidLoad()
let urlString = "https://www.pilotjobsnetwork.com/service_ios.php"
let url = URL(string: urlString)
guard url != nil else {

}
let session = URLSession.shared
let dataTask = session.dataTask(with: url!) { (data, response, error) in
var dataString = String(data: data!, encoding: String.Encoding.utf8)
print(dataString)
if error == nil && data != nil {
// Parse JSON
let decoder = JSONDecoder()

print(newsFeed)
print(error)
}
catch{

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'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() -> 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() -> 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.

let session = URLSession.shared
let dataTask = session.dataTask(with: url!) { (data, response, error) in
var dataString = String(data: data!, encoding: String.Encoding.utf8)
print(dataString)
if error == nil && data != nil {
// Parse JSON
let decoder = JSONDecoder()
do {
let newsFeed = try decoder.decode(NewsFeed.self, from: data!)
print("line 51")
print(newsFeed)
print(error)
}
catch{
print("Line 57, Error in JSON parsing")
print(error)

}
And this is my Codable file NewsFeed.swift:
struct NewsFeed: Codable {

Please do you know how to resolve the typeMismatch error?

I ran into a problem, I have a recursive function in which Data type objects are temporarily created, because of this, the memory expands until the entire recursion ends. It would just be fixed using autoreleasepool, but it can't be used with async await, and I really don't want to rewrite the code for callbacks. Is there any option to use autoreleasepool with async await functions? (I Googled one option, that the Task already contains its own autoreleasepool, and if you do something like that, it should work, but it doesn't, the memory is still growing)
func autoreleasepool<Result>(_ perform: @escaping () async throws -> Result) async throws -> Result {
try await Task {

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?

var body: some View {

Issue:
During app execution, the intended method is not being called; instead, the method preceding (written above the intended method) is being executed.
For Example:
//In my case the ViewController class is at 3rd level of inheritance.
class ViewController: UIViewController {
func methodA() {
print("methodA")
}
func methodB() {
print("methodB")
}
}
let vc = ViewController()
vc.methodB()
Output: //"methodA"
Expected: //"methodB"
Observations:
Recent code changes have revealed that enabling the below Swift-6 flag leads to this linking issue. When this flag is commented out, the problem disappears.
.enableUpcomingFeature("InternalImportsByDefault")
Additionally, moving the intended method into an extension of the same class resolves the issue when the flag is enabled.
Conclusion:
To resolve the issue:
Comment out the Swift-6 flag.
Alternatively, move the method into an extension of the same class, which addresses the issue for this specific case.
I had similar issue in other class where it crashes with message "method not found", but actually the method is there. When moving the method into an extension of same class resolve this issue.
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanking you..
According to the doc:
The value returned is the same as the value returned in the kEventParamKeyCode when using Carbon Events.
So where can I find kEventParamKeyCode?

Hi, I'm trying to add Swift code to my Obj-C project. I've gone through all the tutorials and troubleshooting advice I can find online, no dice. I would appreciate any help, thank you so much in advance.
I add a new swift file to my Obj-C project
XCode offers to create a bridging header file for me, yes please
New .swift file and .h file are added to my project no problem
Header file shows up in build settings no problem
I add a new class to my new swift file ("@objc class HelloPrinter: NSObject")
When I build the app, nothing is generated in the bridging header file and the class is obviously inaccessible to my obj-c code
Is this supposed to work? My understanding is that it's supposed to work.
Somewhat concerning is the text that XCode puts in the bridging header file when it's created: "Use this file to import your target's public headers that you would like to expose to Swift."
I don't want to use this bridging header file for anything. I want XCode to GENERATE STUFF in the bridging file. I also don't want to expose anything to Swift. I want the opposite to happen. So I don't get this text at all. Thanks in advance again.

Hi,
I’m trying to use the new InlineArray type, but noticed that it is unfortunately only available on macOS 26 and not on macOS 15 and others. As this is quite an essential type, I was wondering if this is intended or will this change in later beta’s? Not having it available on older Darwin platforms would severily limit it’s usage in the coming years.
Thanks!
I've been testing my open source libraries with Swift 6.2 and the new Default Actor Isolation concurrency build setting set to MainActor (with Complete strict concurrency turned on). My library Destinations uses protocols extensively, often applying conformance to foundational Swift protocols like Hashable and Identifiable. Many of these basic protocols are not flagged as running on the @MainActor in Beta 1, leading to situations like this:
Given this example code:
public protocol Contentable: Identifiable {
var id: UUID { get }
}
final class ContentModel: Contentable {
let id: UUID = UUID()
}
I get the warning:
Multiline
Conformance of 'ContentModel' to protocol 'Contentable' crosses into main actor-isolated code and can cause data races; this is an error in the Swift 6 language mode
The fix it suggests is to put a @MainActor before the Contentable protocol declaration in ContentModel, which seems to be a new attribute configuration in Swift 6.2. This solves the warning, but would create a lot of extra noise across the codebase.
Was it an oversight or a temporary omission that protocols like Hashable and Identifiable do not run on @MainActor by default, or is there some other reason they are excluded? Considering how often protocols in our code may conform to foundational protocols like this, it seems at odds to the MainActor mode of the Default Actor Isolation setting given that it was created to make concurrency easier and less boilerplate to implement.
