Crash with Progress type, Swift 6, iOS 18
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. * thread #4, queue = 'com.apple.root.default-qos', stop reason = EXC_BREAKPOINT (code=1, subcode=0x18017b0e8) * frame #0: 0x000000018017b0e8 libdispatch.dylib`_dispatch_assert_queue_fail + 116 frame #1: 0x000000018017b074 libdispatch.dylib`dispatch_assert_queue + 188 frame #2: 0x00000002444c63e0 libswift_Concurrency.dylib`swift_task_isCurrentExecutorImpl(swift::SerialExecutorRef) + 284 frame #3: 0x000000010b80bd84 MyTests`closure #3 in MyController.init() at MyController.swift:0 frame #4: 0x000000010b80bb04 MyTests`thunk for @escaping @callee_guaranteed @Sendable () -> () at <compiler-generated>:0 frame #5: 0x00000001810276b0 Foundation`__20-[NSProgress cancel]_block_invoke_3 + 28 frame #6: 0x00000001801774ec libdispatch.dylib`_dispatch_call_block_and_release + 24 frame #7: 0x0000000180178de0 libdispatch.dylib`_dispatch_client_callout + 16 frame #8: 0x000000018018b7dc libdispatch.dylib`_dispatch_root_queue_drain + 1072 frame #9: 0x000000018018bf60 libdispatch.dylib`_dispatch_worker_thread2 + 232 frame #10: 0x00000001012a77d8 libsystem_pthread.dylib`_pthread_wqthread + 224 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.

Request authorization for the notification center crash iOS app on Swift 6
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

Weird crashes when accessing Swift Array
For some time now Xcode has been downloading crash reports from users of my app about crashes related to arrays. One of them looks like this: ... Code Type: ARM-64 Parent Process: launchd [1] User ID: 501 Date/Time: 2024-07-18 14:59:40.4375 +0800 OS Version: macOS 15.0 (24A5289h) ...

And the relevant code looks like this: class MyObject { var myProperty: [MyObject] { get { ... } set { let items = newValue.map({ $0.id }) ... } } } 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)?

What is the future of Objective-C?
Will Apple continue to support it, or will we wake up one day to find that Swift is the only viable language?It's a serious question. Careers depend on it. I don't accept the "No comment" approach that Apple usually takes. It's cruel.I'm willing to put the time into learning Swift if I have to. I'm not going to do it if I don't. I want to know.Frank

Crash casting class from obj_copyClassList to a type
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?

Xcode Arm vector assembly error
Every time a (valid) vector instruction is added to the .s file, xcode report an error (without vector instruction the .s file compile correctly) By example vand q8, q8, q10 found in https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/104424 give an error What I am missing to tell xcode to accept vector instruction ?

unexpected nil
` 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!

Token is not a valid binary operator in a preprocessor subexpression
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) &gt; 0 #define USING_BLE_SERVICE ... #if 0 BLE_SERVICE_LIST(BLE_SERVICE_BLANK, BLE_CHARACTERISTIC_ENUM_COUNTER) &gt; 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.

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

App sometimes crashes when inserting String into Set with assertion ELEMENT_TYPE_OF_SET_VIOLATES_HASHABLE_REQUIREMENTS
Xcode downloaded a crash report for my app that crashed when trying to insert a String into a Set<String>. Apparently there was an assertion failure ELEMENT_TYPE_OF_SET_VIOLATES_HASHABLE_REQUIREMENTS. I assume that this assertion failure happened because the hash of the new element didn't match the hash of an equal already inserted element, but regardless, I don't understand how inserting a simple string could trigger this assertion. Here is essentially the code that leads to the crash. path is any file system directory, and basePath is a directory higher in the hierarchy, or path itself. var scanErrorPaths = Set<String>() func main() { let path = "/path/to/directory" let basePath = "/path" let fileDescriptor = open(path, O_RDONLY) if fileDescriptor < 0 { if (try? URL(fileURLWithPath: path, isDirectory: false).checkResourceIsReachable()) == true { scanErrorPaths.insert(path.relativePath(from: basePath)!) return } } extension String { func relativePath(from basePath: String) -> String? { if basePath == "" { return self } guard let index = range(of: basePath, options: .anchored)?.upperBound else { return nil } return if index == endIndex || basePath == "/" { String(self[index...]) } else if let index = self[index...].range(of: "/", options: .anchored)?.upperBound { String(self[index...]) } else { nil } } } crash.crash

Overall Code Structure Of Swift Project
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.

Timeline refresh issue for widget on ios 18.2
I use AppIntent to trigger a widget refresh, Appint is used on Button or Toggle,as follows var isAudibleArming = false struct SoundAlarmIntent: AppIntent { static var title: LocalizedStringResource = "SoundAlarmIntent" func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult { isAudibleArming = true return .result() } } func timeline( for configuration: DynamicIntentWidgetPersonIntent, in context: Context ) async -> Timeline { var entries: [Entry] = [] let currentDate = Date() let entry = Entry(person: person(for: configuration)) entries.append(entry) if isAudibleArming { let entry2 = Entry(person: Person(name: "Friend4", dateOfBirth: currentDate.adding(.second, value: 6))) entries.append(entry2) } return .init(entries: entries, policy: .never) } The timeline function fires, with entry corresponding to view1 and entry2 corresponding to view2. I expect to show view1 immediately and view2 6 seconds later. You get the correct response on iOS17. But the 6 second delay function on the discovery code in iOS18.2 takes effect immediately, view1 flashes, view2 appears immediately instead of waiting 6 seconds to appear.

Circular Reference Error in Xcode 26
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!

MultiThreaded rendering with actor
Hi, I'm trying to modify the ScreenCaptureKit Sample code by implementing an actor for Metal rendering, but I'm experiencing issues with frame rendering sequence. My app workflow is: ScreenCapture -&gt; createFrame -&gt; setRenderData Metal draw callback -&gt; renderAsync (getData from renderData) I've added timestamps to verify frame ordering, I also using binarySearch to insert the frame with timestamp, and while the timestamps appear to be in sequence, the actual rendering output seems out of order. // ScreenCaptureKit sample func createFrame(for sampleBuffer: CMSampleBuffer) async { if let surface: IOSurface = getIOSurface(for: sampleBuffer) { await renderer.setRenderData(surface, timeStamp: sampleBuffer.presentationTimeStamp.seconds) } } class Renderer { ... func setRenderData(surface: IOSurface, timeStamp: Double) async { _ = await renderSemaphore.getSetBuffers( isGet: false, surface: surface, timeStamp: timeStamp ) } func draw(in view: MTKView) { Task { await renderAsync(view) } } func renderAsync(_ view: MTKView) async { guard await renderSemaphore.beginRender() else { return } guard let frame = await renderSemaphore.getSetBuffers( isGet: true, surface: nil, timeStamp: nil ) else { await renderSemaphore.endRender() return } guard let texture = await renderSemaphore.getRenderData( device: self.device, surface: frame.surface) else { await renderSemaphore.endRender() return } guard let commandBuffer = _commandQueue.makeCommandBuffer(), let renderPassDescriptor = await view.currentRenderPassDescriptor, let renderEncoder = commandBuffer.makeRenderCommandEncoder(descriptor: renderPassDescriptor) else { await renderSemaphore.endRender() return } // Shaders .. renderEncoder.endEncoding() commandBuffer.addCompletedHandler() { @Sendable (_ commandBuffer)-&gt; Swift.Void in updateFPS() } // commit frame in actor let success = await renderSemaphore.commitFrame( timeStamp: frame.timeStamp, commandBuffer: commandBuffer, drawable: view.currentDrawable! ) if !success { print("Frame dropped due to out-of-order timestamp") } await renderSemaphore.endRender() } } actor RenderSemaphore { private var frameBuffers: [FrameData] = [] private var lastReadTimeStamp: Double = 0.0 private var lastCommittedTimeStamp: Double = 0 private var activeTaskCount = 0 private var activeRenderCount = 0 private let maxTasks = 3 private var textureCache: CVMetalTextureCache?

jmp_buf layout for Apple Silicon
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!
