I'm struggling to convert Swift 5 to Swift 6. As advised in doc, I first turned strict concurrency ON. I got no error. Then, selected swift6… and problems pop up. I have a UIViewController with IBOutlets: eg a TextField. computed var eg duree func using UNNotification: func userNotificationCenter I get the following error in the declaration line of the func userNotificationCenter: Main actor-isolated instance method 'userNotificationCenter(_:didReceive:withCompletionHandler:)' cannot be used to satisfy nonisolated requirement from protocol 'UNUserNotificationCenterDelegate' So, I declared the func as non isolated. This func calls another func func2, which I had also to declare non isolated. Then I get error on the computed var used in func2 Main actor-isolated property 'duree' can not be referenced from a nonisolated context So I declared duree as nonsilated(unsafe). Now comes the tricky part. The computed var references the IBOutlet dureeField if dureeField.text == "X" leading to the error Main actor-isolated property 'dureeField' can not be referenced from a nonisolated context So I finally declared the class as mainActor and the textField as nonisolated @IBOutlet nonisolated(unsafe) weak var dureeField : UITextField! That silences the error (but declaring unsafe means I get no extra robustness with swift6) just to create a new one when calling dureeField.text: Main actor-isolated property 'text' can not be referenced from a nonisolated context Question: how to address properties inside IBOutlets ? I do not see how to declare them non isolated and having to do it on each property of each IBOutlet would be impracticable. The following did work, but will make code very verbose: if MainActor.assumeIsolated({dureeField.text == "X"}) { So I must be missing something.

When looking ay space used by system, I found that AssetsV2 (in System/Library) account for 270 GB. In this folder, 3 account for 260 GB and are apparently related to Xcode simulators: Content is a bit cryptic. Does it relate to some specific apps I compiled and ran on simulator ? Or is it related to older versions of Xcode I keep on the Mac ? How to know what each forlder relates to ? Is it safe to remove ?

I sometimes use Xcode 14.2. Recently, I have an issue with simulators: on some SwiftUI project, the simulator list is empty. I created a new project. I see the complete list of simulators, but when running for a simulator, it fails with following diag; Same error with UIKit project. Details Unable to boot the Simulator.

Just testing an existing app with Xcode 26. I notice that content of UIBarButtonItem (either text or image) disappears when tapped (and reappear on release). Those are custom, bordered buttons. Attribute inspector: Buttons in Xcode: When selected in Xcode, we see a rectangle inside the rounder rect of iOS 26 In simulator: When tapped in simulator: I have edited code from backButton.setTitleTextAttributes([ .font : boldFont, .foregroundColor : UIColor.systemBlue, ], for: .normal) to backButton.setTitleTextAttributes([ .font : boldFont, .foregroundColor : UIColor.systemBlue, ], for: [.normal, .focused, .selected, .highlighted]) to no avail. What am I missing ?

Is it only me (or a localisation issue in french) or is there a bug in the submission form (buttons titles): But acceptance (dark blue button) works as intended.

I tried to post a reply to a thread. It seems to be posted, but does not appear in the thread once sent…

I have created a custom class: class TarifsHeaderFooterView: UITableViewHeaderFooterView { …} With its init: override init(reuseIdentifier: String?) { super.init(reuseIdentifier: reuseIdentifier) configureContents() } I register the custom header view in viewDidLoad of the class using the tableView. Table delegate and data source are defined in storyboard. tarifsTableView.register(TarifsHeaderFooterView.self, forHeaderFooterViewReuseIdentifier: headerTarifsIdentifier) And call it: func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, viewForHeaderInSection section: Int) -> UIView? { let view = tableView.dequeueReusableHeaderFooterView(withIdentifier: headerTarifsIdentifier) as! TarifsHeaderFooterView That works on iPhone (simulators and devices). But it crashes on any iPad simulator, as tableView.dequeueReusableHeaderFooterView(withIdentifier: headerTarifsIdentifier) is found nil. What difference between iPhone and iPad do I miss that explains this crash ? PS: sorry for the messy message. It looks like the new "feature" of the forum to put a Copy code button on the code parts, causes the code sections to be put at the very end of the post, not at the place they should be.

I have an @objC used for notification. kTag is an Int constant, fieldBeingEdited is an Int variable. The following code fails at compilation with error: Command CompileSwift failed with a nonzero exit code if I capture self (I edited code, to have minimal case) @objc func keyboardDone(_ sender : UIButton) { DispatchQueue.main.async { [self] () -> Void in switch fieldBeingEdited { case kTag : break default : break } } } If I explicitly use self, it compiles, even with self captured: @objc func keyboardDone(_ sender : UIButton) { DispatchQueue.main.async { [self] () -> Void in switch fieldBeingEdited { // <<-- no need for self here case self.kTag : break // <<-- self here default : break } } } This compiles as well: @objc func keyboardDone(_ sender : UIButton) { DispatchQueue.main.async { () -> Void in switch self.fieldBeingEdited { // <<-- no need for self here case self.kTag : break // <<-- self here default : break } } } Is it a compiler bug or am I missing something ?

I feel a bit dumb now. I once succeeded to change the language of an app on Watch simulator. So it is possible. And I'm not able to repeat (fool of me I did not took note of how I did it). I just remember it was simply through some language settings selection, may be rebooting the Mac, but not by changing anything in code. Does someone know how to do ?

I create a notification with an image attachment: let center = UNUserNotificationCenter.current() center.delegate = self let content = UNMutableNotificationContent() // some more stuff… let paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains( FileManager.SearchPathDirectory.documentDirectory, FileManager.SearchPathDomainMask.userDomainMask, true) let documentsDirectory = paths[0] as NSString let fileExtPNG = "#" + "\(imageName)" + " photo.png" let fileNamePNG = documentsDirectory.appendingPathComponent(fileExtPNG) as String url = URL(fileURLWithPath: fileNamePNG) let attachment = try UNNotificationAttachment(identifier: "Image", url: url, options: nil) content.attachments = [attachment] I then add the request: let request = UNNotificationRequest(identifier:requestIdentifier, content: content, trigger: nil) center.removePendingNotificationRequests(withIdentifiers: [requestIdentifier]) center.add(request) {(error) in } Problem: when I later test (once notification has been registered), the file do not exist anymore at the url. I've commented out the add request to confirm. I have a work around, by creating a temporary copy of the file at the URL and pass it in the attachment. Then, everything works fine and the copy is deleted. But that's a bit bizarre. What am I missing here ?

When picking a photo in the gallery, whatever the orientation of the original image, size is always as landscape if let image = info[convertFromUIImagePickerControllerInfoKey(UIImagePickerController.InfoKey.editedImage)] as? UIImage { print("picked original", image.size) For a portrait photo: picked original (1122.0, 932.0) For a landscape: picked original (1124.0, 844.0) What am I missing ?

I have an alertController that is presented as popover on iPad let alertController = UIAlertController(title: alertTitle, message: alertMessage, preferredStyle: alertStyle) if let ppc = alertController.popoverPresentationController { // … } Is it possible to change the message font color (which is really very light on iPad) ? It is OK on iPhone with the same alert (not popover): text is much more readable:

In this setup, label do not show properly because of the textColor. Labels are defined in IB, in the following hierarchy: ViewController View Label 1 scrollView View Button Label 2 Buttons show properly, but labels, even though defined with default label color appear as if their alpha was 0.2. It is even worse in dark mode: I have checked the settings for the label and did not find anything anormal: I have tried to change label color to system.gray 2, to no avail. If I change to red, does not show in red in IB. Problem appears for both Label 1 (at the top level in the view) and Label 2

I get a crash in Apple Watch simulator (Series 9 45mm 18.0) as soon as the app launch if I type anything on external keyboard (just hitting command key for instance to capture a screenshot). Same crash on series 7 (45mm, OS 18.1) But app works normally when I use mouse to interact with the app on simulator. App does not crash on real device (Watch 4 OS 10.4.1). Nor does it crash on Series 6 simulator (44 mm OS 17.4). Here are the log I could collect (apparently, they contain sensitive language !!! so I attach as a file.: Attached logs

Not a question, but a surprise. Did I miss something, but apparently there has been no new beta release (16.3) since Release of 16.2 on Dec 11. 2 months without betas is really unusual (in fact, it never happened and usually, next beta n+1 is even released before the final release of version n). So does that mean 16.3 will be a major update ? Wait and see.
