Is there a way I can set my own app to be the default web browser on macOS? The System Preferences->General UI for choosing the default web browser doesn't have an obvious way to set an arbitrary app. Is there a way to configure my app so that macOS recognizes it as an option for this list?

How do I handle URLs in a SwiftUI app? The only thing I can find is to put onOpenURL in my App's WindowGroup view content, but that makes a new window for every URL that gets handled.

We have some HTML content embedded in our app. These live in two top-level folders. These folders have been localized, and so live in Resources/en.lproj/HelpContent and Resources/fr.lproj/HelpContent (for example). Similarly, we have a bunch of localized .storyboard files.Xcode 8 builds this just fine.

I've developed a specialized web server in Swift using Vapor. I want to set it up to run reliably on macOS using a LaunchDaemon. It should start at boot and be restarted if it crashes. I'm having trouble finding a good guide to the latest flavor of launchctl, and how to use system domains. This is my plist: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>Debug</key> <true/> <key>Label</key> <string>com.latencyzero.FurnaceController</string> <key>Program</key> <string>/Users/rmann/Desktop/Run</string> <key>ProgramArguments</key> <array> <string>serve</string> <string>--hostname</string> <string>0.0.0.0</string> <string>--port</string> <string>80</string> </array> <key>KeepAlive</key> <true/> <key>Listeners</key> <dict> <key>SockServiceName</key> <string>http</string> <key>SockType</key> <string>tcp</string> <key>SockFamily</key> <string>IPv4</string> </dict> </dict> </plist> And I'm trying to invoke it like this: $ sudo enable system/com.latencyzero.FurnaceController But nothing happens. If I try kickstart, I get an error: $ sudo launchctl kickstart -p system/com.latencyzero.FurnaceController Could not find service "com.latencyzero.FurnaceController" in domain for system $ sudo launchctl kickstart -p uid/501/com.latencyzero.FurnaceController Unrecognized target specifier. Usage: launchctl kickstart [-k] [-p] <service-target>         -k      Terminates the service if it is already running.         -p      Prints the PID of the service that was started.         -s      Starts the service suspended so that a debugger may attach. <service-target> takes a form of <domain-target>/<service-id>. Please refer to `man launchctl` for explanation of the <domain-target> specifiers. Bootstrap also doesn't work as I'd expect: $ sudo launchctl bootstrap system/com.latencyzero.FurnaceController Usage: launchctl bootstrap <domain-target> [service-path, service-path2, ...] <service-target> takes a form of <domain-target>/<service-id>. Please refer to `man launchctl` for explanation of the <domain-target> specifiers. The plist is in /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.latencyzero.FurnaceController.plist I'd rather not have to launch this in a user domain, as I'm handing this app off to my client, and the fewer customization needed, the better.

I've got a Game @StateObject in my app that's passed to my main ContentView. I'm trying to figure out how best create a SCNSceneRendererDelegate instance that has a reference to the Game state, and then pass that to the SceneView inside my ContentView. I'm trying to do it like this, but obviously this doesn't work because self isn't available at init time: struct ContentView : View { let game : Game var scene = SCNScene(named: "art.scnassets/ship.scn") var cameraNode : SCNNode? { self.scene?.rootNode.childNode(withName: "camera", recursively: false) } var rendererDelegate = RendererDelegate(game: self.game) // Cannot find 'self' in scope var body: some View { SceneView(scene: self.scene, pointOfView: self.cameraNode, delegate: self.rendererDelegate) } } The intent is that in my renderer delegate, I'll update my game's simulation state. Because my game state is an ObservableObject, everything else (I have a bunch of SwiftUI) should update.

The Xcode console logs an identifier indicating the current thread that's running when a message is print()ed from Swift. Some more complex logging systems (e.g. swift-log and console-kit) don't provide that information, and I'm trying to write a logging back-end for swift-log that will. Thing is, I don't see any way to get the current queue name in Swift. I tried dispatch_queue_get_label(DISPATCH_CURRENT_QUEUE_LABEL) But I get "cannot convert value of type '()' to expected argument type 'DispatchQueue?'". Passing nil instead results in "'dispatch_queue_get_label' has been replaced by property 'DispatchQueue.label'". This is not an unreasonable thing to want to do, and it poses no safety concerns.

I'm not sure why, but it seems my Xcode project is trying to build for x86 (on my M1 Mac), even though both Debug and Release configurations have ONLY_ACTIVE_ARCH = YES. It's clearly trying to build for x86, as evidenced by the -target x86_64-apple-macos13.0 in the invocation. But I can't figure out why.

When stepping through code in the Xcode debugger, hovering over a variable in the context causes a little popover to appear, displaying the value of that variable. Is there any way to disable this behavior? I find it gets in the way and I never use it.

I have a SwiftUI app made up of two types of window. If I hold the option key while clicking in the close box of one window, it closes all the app windows. I want to change that behavior to just close all the windows of a particular type (or use any other criteria, for that matter). Is this even possible?

I'm using Settings to implement the preferences in macOS, with a TabView. Runs fine, but in Xcode preview, it renders the buttons differently. Clearly Settings is applying some kind of button style (or TabView knows it needs to change), but how can I get this to work in a preview? I can't preview Settings directly.

I managed to get a macOS 13.3 beta install running in Parallels on my M1 VM, but it was really hard to get my app (built on my 13.2.1 M1 native macOS) installed on it, because so many features are unsupported in the VM (e.g. I can't drop files onto it like I can with other OSes, or on Intel; I can't log in with my Apple ID because Apple doesn't allow that, etc.). I finally copied it over using File Sharing from the VM, but the virtual OS won't launch it. It throws up a vague alert saying "The application can’t be opened." If I try to launch it from the command line, I get The application cannot be opened for an unexpected reason, error=Error Domain=RBSRequestErrorDomain Code=5 "Launch failed." UserInfo={NSLocalizedFailureReason=Launch failed., NSUnderlyingError=0x600000f2da10 {Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=153 "Unknown error: 153" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Launchd job spawn failed}}} I assume it's some kind of code signing/gatekeeper issue, but I don't really know. I also tried this using the Apple virtualization framework and sample virtual machine tools (neat that those exist). I'm pretty sure this is exactly what Parallels is using internally, btw. It lacks a LOT. Is there any way to make running macOS betas in a VM a viable way of testing?

Is there any way to get Xcode to render a macOS settings view hierarchy as if it were in a Settings window? I have a TabView at the top of my Settings hierarchy, but in Xcode’s preview, it shows the tab as a simple text-only button: instead of the icon it looks like when running:

I'm working on a SwiftUI client app for my web service. A logged-in user can belong to one or more Organizations, and in the app's settings UI, the user can change which organization is the current selectedOrg. The selected org is displayed using a Picker view in the settings UI. The Model is made available to the UI primarily through @EnvironmentObject. When the user changes the selectedOrg, the app has to fetch some data (a set of Machine records) and set the result in the model. I see at least two ways to do this. A) Use @State in the SwiftUI view, initialized with the current selectedOrg in the model, and .onChange(of:) that state to then call a method that sets the new org and starts the relevant data fetch. B) Bind to the selectedOrg in the model, and use willSet/didSet inside the model to initiate the network request. The latter option feels better, because it pulls a lot of the logic out of the views and into the model/business logic. What are your thoughts on this?
