It seems that NSTextView has an issue with deleting text and setting any attribute at the same time, when it also has a textContainerInset. With the code below, after 1 second, the empty line in the text view is automatically deleted and the first line is colored red. The top part of the last line remains visible at its old position. Selecting the whole text and then deselecting it again makes the issue disappear. Is there a workaround? I've created FB16897003. class ViewController: NSViewController { @IBOutlet var textView: NSTextView! override func viewDidAppear() { textView.textContainerInset = CGSize(width: 0, height: 8) let _ = textView.layoutManager textView.textStorage!.setAttributedString(NSAttributedString(string: "1\n\n2\n3\n4")) textView.textStorage!.addAttribute(.foregroundColor, value: NSColor.labelColor, range: NSRange(location: 0, length: textView.textStorage!.length)) DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + 1) { [self] in textView.selectedRange = NSRange(location: 3, length: 0) textView.deleteBackward(nil) textView.textStorage!.beginEditing() textView.textStorage!.addAttribute(.foregroundColor, value: NSColor.red, range: NSRange(location: 0, length: 2)) textView.textStorage!.endEditing() } } }

I was just having a look at some crash reports downloaded by Xcode, and I noticed the same wrong pattern I already mentioned here: the crash reports indicate that method A calls method B, which is impossible. In the first crash report below, method MainViewController.showSettings seems to be called by ConfirmMoveViewController.openSourceInFinder, which is impossible. ConfirmMoveViewController.openSourceInFinder is a context menu action in a modal window, and MainViewController.showSettings is in a completely different window and the two methods have no relation whatsoever. In the second crash report below, MainViewController.setSortMode is triggered by the press of a button (and nothing else) but seems to be called by OtherViewController.copy that can be triggered by a context menu (or keyboard shortcut). The two methods have no relation whatsoever. The rest of the stack trace confirm that it's indeed the button that was pressed. This seems to me like a quite serious bug in how macOS creates crash reports. 1.crash 2.crash

I'm building a game with a client-server architecture. Using GKMatch.chooseBestHostingPlayer(_:) rarely works. When I started testing it today, it worked once at the very beginning, and since then it always succeeds on one client and returns nil on the other client. I'm testing with a Mac and an iPhone. Sometimes it fails on the Mac, sometimes on the iPhone. On the device that it succeeds on, the provided host can be the device itself or the other one. I created FB9583628 in August 2021, but after the Feedback Assistant team replied that they are not able to reproduce it, the feedback never went forward. import SceneKit import GameKit #if os(macOS) typealias ViewController = NSViewController #else typealias ViewController = UIViewController #endif class GameViewController: ViewController, GKMatchmakerViewControllerDelegate, GKMatchDelegate { var match: GKMatch? var matchStarted = false override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() GKLocalPlayer.local.authenticateHandler = authenticate } private func authenticate(_ viewController: ViewController?, _ error: Error?) { #if os(macOS) if let viewController = viewController { presentAsSheet(viewController) } else if let error = error { print(error) } else { print("authenticated as \(GKLocalPlayer.local.gamePlayerID)") let viewController = GKMatchmakerViewController(matchRequest: defaultMatchRequest())! viewController.matchmakerDelegate = self GKDialogController.shared().present(viewController) } #else if let viewController = viewController { present(viewController, animated: true) } else if let error = error { print(error) } else { print("authenticated as \(GKLocalPlayer.local.gamePlayerID)") let viewController = GKMatchmakerViewController(matchRequest: defaultMatchRequest())! viewController.matchmakerDelegate = self present(viewController, animated: true) } #endif } private func defaultMatchRequest() -> GKMatchRequest { let request = GKMatchRequest() request.minPlayers = 2 request.maxPlayers = 2 request.defaultNumberOfPlayers = 2 request.inviteMessage = "Ciao!" return request } func matchmakerViewControllerWasCancelled(_ viewController: GKMatchmakerViewController) { print("cancelled") } func matchmakerViewController(_ viewController: GKMatchmakerViewController, didFailWithError error: Error) { print(error) } func matchmakerViewController(_ viewController: GKMatchmakerViewController, didFind match: GKMatch) { self.match = match match.delegate = self startMatch() } func match(_ match: GKMatch, player: GKPlayer, didChange state: GKPlayerConnectionState) { print("\(player.gamePlayerID) changed state to \(String(describing: state))") startMatch() } func startMatch() { let match = match! if matchStarted || match.expectedPlayerCount > 0 { return } print("starting match with local player \(GKLocalPlayer.local.gamePlayerID) and remote players \(match.players.map({ $0.gamePlayerID }))") match.chooseBestHostingPlayer { host in print("host is \(String(describing: host?.gamePlayerID))") } } }

I was just comparing the build settings of two of my apps to try to understand why they behave differently (one of them uses the full screen on iPad, and the other one has small top and bottom black borders, although that's not the issue I want to discuss now). I saw that the option CLANG_CXX_LANGUAGE_STANDARD is set to gnu++0x for the older project, while it's set to gnu++17 for the newer one. The documentation lists different possible values and also a default one: Compiler Default: Tells the compiler to use its default C++ language dialect. This is normally the best choice unless you have specific needs. (Currently equivalent to GNU++98.) If it really is the best choice (normally), why is it not used when creating a new default Xcode project? Or is it better to select a newer compiler version (GNU++98 sounds quite old compared to GNU++17)? Also, does this affect Swift code?

This crash report for one of my apps was downloaded by Xcode. Apparently the app crashed while releasing an object of type Scan.File, which is a Swift class held in an array in the Scan.Directory class. I'm not doing any manual reference counting or low-level stuff with that object. What could cause such a crash? crash.crash

On macOS, the Finder allows to connect to a server and store the login credentials. When creating a bookmark to a file on a server and resolving it again, the server is mounted automatically (unless I provide the option URL.BookmarkResolutionOptions.withoutMounting). I just tried connecting to my Mac from my iPad via SMB in the Files app and storing a bookmark to a file on the server, but disconnecting the server and trying to resolve the bookmark throws the error (I translated the English text from Italian): Error Domain=NSFileProviderErrorDomain Code=-2001 "No file provider was found with the identifier "com.apple.SMBClientProvider.FileProvider"'" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=No file provider was found with the identifier "com.apple.SMBClientProvider.FileProvider"., NSUnderlyingError=0x302a1a340 {Error Domain=NSFileProviderErrorDomain Code=-2013 "(null) "}} Every time I disconnect and reconnect to the server, selecting the same file returns a different path. The first time I got /private/var/mobile/Library/LiveFiles/com.apple.filesystems.smbclientd/WtFD3Ausername/path/to/file.txt The next time WtFD3A changed to EqHc2g and so on. Is it not possible to automatically mount a server when resolving a bookmark on iOS? The following code allows to reproduce the issue: struct ContentView: View { @State private var isPresentingFilePicker = false @AppStorage("bookmarkData") private var bookmarkData: Data? @State private var url: URL? @State private var stale = false @State private var error: Error? var body: some View { VStack { Button("Open") { isPresentingFilePicker = true } if let url = url { Text(url.path) } else if bookmarkData != nil { Text("couldn't resolve bookmark data") } else { Text("no bookmark data") } if stale { Text("bookmark is stale") } if let error = error { Text("\(error)") .foregroundStyle(.red) } } .padding() .fileImporter(isPresented: $isPresentingFilePicker, allowedContentTypes: [.data]) { result in do { let url = try result.get() if url.startAccessingSecurityScopedResource() { bookmarkData = try url.bookmarkData() } } catch { self.error = error } } .onChange(of: bookmarkData, initial: true) { _, bookmarkData in if let bookmarkData = bookmarkData { do { url = try URL(resolvingBookmarkData: bookmarkData, bookmarkDataIsStale: &stale) } catch { self.error = error } } } } }

On macOS, we have didMountNotification but there doesn't seem to be an equivalent for iOS. Is there a way to be notified when a volume is mounted on iOS? I would like to use it in my iOS app I'm currently porting from macOS, which starts a synchronization from the volume (which has been previously selected in a NSOpenPanel) as soon as it's mounted.

Some time ago I read somewhere that one can get a file icon on iOS like this: UIDocumentInteractionController(url: url).icons.last!) but this always returns the following image for every file: Today I tried the following, which always returns nil: (try? url.resourceValues(forKeys: [.effectiveIconKey]))?.allValues[.effectiveIconKey] as? UIImage Is there any way to get a file icon on iOS? You can try the above methods in this sample app: struct ContentView: View { @State private var isPresentingFilePicker = false @State private var url: URL? var body: some View { VStack { Button("Open") { isPresentingFilePicker = true } if let url = url { Image(uiImage: UIDocumentInteractionController(url: url).icons.last!) if let image = (try? url.resourceValues(forKeys: [.effectiveIconKey]))?.allValues[.effectiveIconKey] as? UIImage { Image(uiImage: image) } else { Text("none") } } } .padding() .fileImporter(isPresented: $isPresentingFilePicker, allowedContentTypes: [.data]) { result in do { let url = try result.get() if url.startAccessingSecurityScopedResource() { self.url = url } } catch { preconditionFailure(error.localizedDescription) } } } }

The following code works when compiling for macOS: print(NSMutableDictionary().isEqual(to: NSMutableDictionary())) but produces a compiler error when compiling for iOS: 'NSMutableDictionary' is not convertible to '[AnyHashable : Any]' NSDictionary.isEqual(to:) has the same signature on macOS and iOS. Why does this happen? Can I use NSDictionary.isEqual(_:) instead?

I used to be able to see how many TSIs are still available for the membership year on the developer website, but now I cannot find it anymore. Is it still 2 per year, or has it been recently changed to unlimited per year?

Every now and then I get this very frustrating message on Feedback Assistant. For instance, in FB14696726 I reported an issue with the App Store Connect API. 4 weeks later, I got a reply, asking among other things for a „correlation key and Charles log“. I immediately replied saying that I didn‘t know what those are, and they replied After reviewing your feedback, it is unclear what the exact issue is. I pointed out that I had asked a question which was left unanswered, and they replied explaining what the correlation key is. Then I asked again what the Charles log is. They replied The Apple Developer website provides access to a range of videos covering various topics on using and developing with Apple technologies. You can find these videos on our Development Videos page: http://developer.apple.com/videos. I opened the link and searched for „Charles“ but there were no results, so I asked to kindly point me to the video answering my question. They replied 3 months later (today): Following up on our last message, we believe this issue is either resolved or not reproducible with the information provided and will now consider this report closed internally. This Feedback will no longer be monitored, and incoming messages will not be reviewed. This is not the first time I ask for clarification and get back a message basically telling me that „we won‘t answer any questions you may have and won‘t hear anything you still may have to say about this issue“. They didn‘t even ask me to verify if the issue is resolved or not, like they sometimes do. No, they just shut the door in my face. I just wanted to share this frustrating experience. Perhaps an Apple engineer wants to say something about it or a developer has had a similar experience?

I would like to implement zoom functionality in my SceneKit game: when the user performs the pinch gesture on a point on the screen, the scene zooms in to make that point larger. Until now I simply changed SCNCamera.focalLength, but this simply zooms in to the center of what is currently visible on screen. Is it somehow possible to implement the zoom functionality described above by perhaps interactively rotating the camera at the same time towards the pinched point? Is there a formula for this? I would like to avoid suddenly rotating the camera to face the pinched point when the pinch gesture begins and then zoom in while the pinch is in progress.
