We are getting a crash _dispatch_assert_queue_fail when the cancellationHandler on NSProgress is called.
We do not see this with iOS 17.x, only on iOS 18. We are building in Swift 6 language mode and do not have any compiler warnings.
We have a type whose init looks something like this:
init(
request: URLRequest,
destinationURL: URL,
session: URLSession
) {
progress = Progress()
progress.kind = .file
progress.fileOperationKind = .downloading
progress.fileURL = destinationURL
progress.pausingHandler = { [weak self] in
self?.setIsPaused(true)
}
progress.resumingHandler = { [weak self] in
self?.setIsPaused(false)
}
progress.cancellationHandler = { [weak self] in
self?.cancel()
}
When the progress is cancelled, and the cancellation handler is invoked. We get the crash. The crash is not reproducible 100% of the time, but it happens significantly often. Especially after cleaning and rebuilding and running our tests.

Any thoughts on why this is crashing and what we can do to work-around it? I have not been able to extract our code into a simple reproducible case yet. And I mostly see it when running our code in a testing environment (XCTest). Although I have been able to reproduce it running an app a few times, it's just less common.

Recently I updated to Xcode 14.0. I am building an iOS app to convert recorded audio into text. I got an exception while testing the application from the simulator(iOS 16.0).
[SpeechFramework] -[SFSpeechRecognitionTask handleSpeechRecognitionDidFailWithError:]_block_invoke Ignoring subsequent recongition error: Error Domain=kAFAssistantErrorDomain Code=1101 "(null)"
Error Domain=kAFAssistantErrorDomain Code=1107 "(null)"
I have to know what does the error code means and why this error occurred.
Hey all!
During the migration of a production app to swift 6, I've encountered a problem: when hitting the UNUserNotificationCenter.current().requestAuthorization the app crashes.
If I switch back to Language Version 5 the app works as expected.
The offending code is defined here
class AppDelegate: NSObject, UIApplicationDelegate {
func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
FirebaseApp.configure()
FirebaseConfiguration.shared.setLoggerLevel(.min)
UNUserNotificationCenter.current().delegate = self
let authOptions: UNAuthorizationOptions = [.alert, .badge, .sound]
UNUserNotificationCenter.current().requestAuthorization(options: authOptions) { _, _ in }
application.registerForRemoteNotifications()
Messaging.messaging().delegate = self
return true
}
}
The error is depicted here:
I have no idea how to fix this.
Any help will be really appreciated
thanks in advance

}
What could cause such crashes? Could they be caused by anything other than concurrent access from multiple threads (which I'm quite sure is not the case here, as I only access these arrays from the main thread)?
I would like to see examples of how to do this. Apple states that explicit clang modules don't work with C++ interop. ObjC++ has simple interop with C++. Swift does not. And so I'd like to know how to setup my C++ projects to build them as clang modules.
This is similar to this post https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/700770 on using objc_copyClassList to obtain the available classes. When iterating the list, I try casting the result to an instance of a protocol and that works fine:
protocol DynamicCounter {
init(controlledByPlayer: Bool, game: Game)
}
class BaseCounter: NSObject, DynamicCounter {
}
static func withAllClasses<R>(
_ body: (UnsafeBufferPointer<AnyClass>) throws -> R
) rethrows -> R {
var count: UInt32 = 0
let classListPtr = objc_copyClassList(&count)
defer {
free(UnsafeMutableRawPointer(classListPtr))
}
let classListBuffer = UnsafeBufferPointer(
start: classListPtr, count: Int(count)
)
return try body(classListBuffer)
}
static func initialize() {
let monoClasses = withAllClasses { $0.compactMap { $0 as? DynamicCounter.Type } }
for cl in monoClasses {
cl.initialize()
}
}
The above code works fine if I use DynamicCounter.Type on the cast but crashes if try casting to BaseCounter.Type instead.
Is there a way to avoid the weird and non Swift classes?
I have a problem with the following code, I am not being notified of changes to the progress property of my Job object, which is @Observable... This is a command-line Mac application (the same code works fine in a SwiftUI application).
I must have missed something?
do {
let job = AsyncJob()
withObservationTracking {
let progress = job.progress
} onChange: {
print("Current progress: \(job.progress)")
}
let _ = try await job.run()
print("Done...")
} catch {
print(error)
}
I Try this without any success:
@main
struct MyApp {
static func main() async throws {
// my code here
}
}
After ther Mac application is launched:
Log error: CGSWindowShmemCreateWithPort failed on port 0
and when the application quit:
No error handler for XPC error: Connection invalid

As repported by Steve4442 in "Can someone explain this message" https://Forums.Developer.Apple.com/Forums/Thread/727803

The code don't use "windowNumbersWithOptions"
Can I ignore this log message ?
My project’s source code was building, running, and archiving successfully in Xcode 14.3. However, after upgrading to Xcode 15, I began encountering the error:
“Command SwiftCompile failed with a nonzero exit code.”
I couldn't resolve the issue, so I decided to continue using Xcode 14.3.
Recently, I upgraded to macOS Sequoia and also updated to Xcode 16. Unfortunately, the same error persists in the latest Xcode:
“Command SwiftCompile failed with a nonzero exit code.”
The unfortunate part is that Xcode 14.3 no longer works after the macOS upgrade. Whenever I try to run the code, I get the following popup.

I used struct in the swift file, but once I use xcode build. It will automatically change to enum, causing build failure. But it turns out that this file can be used to build. Since upgrading to XCode16.1, it's not working anymore. I don't know where to set it up. Do not optimize or modify my code.
Error message: 'Padding' cannot be constructed because it has no accessible initializers
My environment is:
macos sequoia 15.1
xcode 16.1(16B40)
File source code:
let π: CGFloat = .pi
let customUserAgent: String = "litewallet-ios"
let swiftUICellPadding = 12.0
let bigButtonCornerRadius = 15.0
enum FoundationSupport {
static let dashboard = "https://support.litewallet.io/"
}
enum APIServer {
static let baseUrl = "https://api-prod.lite-wallet.org/"
}
enum Padding {
subscript(multiplier: Int) -> CGFloat {
return CGFloat(multiplier) * 8.0
}
subscript(multiplier: Double) -> CGFloat {
return CGFloat(multiplier) * 8.0
}
}
enum C {
static let padding = Padding()
enum Sizes {
static let buttonHeight: CGFloat = 48.0
static let sendButtonHeight: CGFloat = 165.0
static let headerHeight: CGFloat = 48.0
static let largeHeaderHeight: CGFloat = 220.0
}
static var defaultTintColor: UIColor = UIView().tintColor
Enum was originally SRTUCT. But the build has been automatically optimized

I have a s hared library in C++ that was built with GNU Libtool, and I want to bundle it with my Swift app and call it from the app. How can I bundle it and call it?
I have a relatively unique project layered with file types (top to bottom) SwiftUI, Swift, Objective C, and C. The purpose of this layering is that I have a C language firmware application framework for development of firmware on custom electronic boards.
Specifically, I use the standard C preprocessor in specific ways to make data driven structures, not code. There are header files shared between the firmware project and the Xcode iPhone app to set things like the BLE protocol and communication command/reply protocols, etc. The app is forced to adhere to that defined by the firmware, rather than rely a design to get it right.
The Objective C code is mainly to utilize the Bluetooth stack provided by iOS. I specifically use this approach to allow C files to be compiled. Normally, everything has worked perfectly, but a serious and obtuse problem just surfaced a couple days ago.
My important project was created long ago. More recently, I started a new project using most of the same technology, but its project is newer. Ironically, it continues to work perfectly, but ironically the older project stopped working. (Talking about the Xcode iOS side.)
Essentially, the Objective C handling of the C preprocessor is not fully adhering to the standard C preprocessing in one project. It's very confusing because there is no code change. It seems Xcode was updated, but looks like the project was not updated, accordingly? I'm guessing there is some setting that forces Objective C to adhere to the standard C preprocessor rules.
I did see a gnu compiler version that did not get updated compared to the newer project, but updating that in the Build Settings did not fix the problem.
The error is in the title:
Token is not a valid binary operator in a preprocessor subexpression.
The offending macro appears in a header file, included in several implementation files. Compiling a single implementation files isolates the issue somewhat. An implementation with no Objective C objects compiles just fine. If there are Objective C objects then I get the errors. Both cases include the same header.
It seems like the Objective C compiler, being invoked, uses a different C preprocessor parser, rather than the standard. I guess I should mention the bridging header file where these headers exist, as well. The offending header with the problem macro appears as an error in the bridging header if a full build is initiated.
Is there an option somewhere, that forces the Objective C compiler to honor the standard C processor? Note, one project seems to.
#define BLE_SERVICE_BLANK( enumTag, uuid, serviceType )
#define BLE_CHARACTERISTIC_BLANK( enumTag, uuid, properties, readPerm, writePerm, value)
#define BLE_SERVICE_ENUM_COUNTER( enumTag, uuid, serviceType) +1
#define BLE_CHARACTERISTIC_ENUM_COUNTER( enumTag, uuid, properties, readPerm, writePerm, value) +1
#if 0 BLE_SERVICE_LIST(BLE_SERVICE_ENUM_COUNTER, BLE_CHARACTERISTIC_BLANK) > 0
#define USING_BLE_SERVICE
...
#if 0 BLE_SERVICE_LIST(BLE_SERVICE_BLANK, BLE_CHARACTERISTIC_ENUM_COUNTER) > 0
#define USING_BLE_CHARACTERISTIC
...
token is not a valid binary operator in a preprocessor subexpression
refers to the comparison. BLE_SERVICE_LIST() does a +1 for each item in the list. There is no further expansion. One counts services. The other counts characteristics. The errors are associated with the comparisons.
`
init() {
nextOrder = self.AllItems.map{$0.order}.max()
if nextOrder == nil {
nextOrder = 0
}
nextOrder! += 1 // <--- Thread 1: Fatal error: Unexpectedly found nil while unwrapping an Optional value
}
`
I have to say, Swift is great - when it works!

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
I have a Package.swift
// swift-tools-version: 5.9
// The swift-tools-version declares the minimum version of Swift required to build this package.

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.

Greetings! I am actively working on porting x64 code to Apple Silicon now that the time is nigh and part of the fundamentals of our software is a coroutine library for handling cooperative multitasking of GUI operations on the main thread. I was hoping to get the locations of the stack pointer and frame pointer in jmp_buf so, after setjmp() can redirect them to the primary handling routines in our coroutine library that handles the cooperative scheduling (which replaced and ported the old classic MP routines) which worked for PowerPC, i386 and x64.
Any thoughts on where in the jmp_buf these might be located? I didn't see anything in the XNU open source.
Any advice would be much obliged instead of having to dive in and re-implement these routines in assembly myself!

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!
Hello I was wondering if there is a way to ensure that a C program I am writing can only write to 1 virtual page. I am trying to test how space efficient different Mallocs are and I need a way to ensure that the OS will not try to swap out pages making the space efficiency test pointless. I am on Mac OS Sonoma v14.5.
