NSTextField in table view with specific configuration doesn't enable undo
After typing anything in a custom text field with undo support, when opening the Edit menu, the undo item is disabled. It seems that setting translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints=false, a formatter, allowsEditingTextAttributes=true and calling invalidateIntrinsicContentSize() in textDidChange(_:) causes this behaviour. Is this expected, or is there a workaround? Here is the code: class ViewController: NSViewController, NSTableViewDataSource, NSTableViewDelegate { @IBOutlet weak var textField: NSTextField! override func loadView() { view = NSView(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 400, height: 400)) let textField = MyTextField() textField.frame = CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 100, height: 20) textField.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false textField.formatter = MyFormatter() textField.allowsEditingTextAttributes = true view.addSubview(textField) } } class MyTextField: NSTextField { override func textDidChange(_ notification: Notification) { super.textDidChange(notification) super.invalidateIntrinsicContentSize() } } class MyFormatter: Formatter { override func string(for obj: Any?) -> String? { return obj as? String } override func getObjectValue(_ obj: AutoreleasingUnsafeMutablePointer<AnyObject?>?, for string: String, errorDescription error: AutoreleasingUnsafeMutablePointer<NSString?>?) -> Bool { obj?.pointee = string as NSString return true } }

Autosizing text field: NSCell.cellSize(forBounds:) doesn't respect wrapped text unless using attributed string
I'm trying to implement a text field in a table view that automatically adjusts its height to fit the contained text. My current implementation adjusts its intrinsicContentSize in textDidChange(_:). Unfortunately, NSCell.cellSize(forBounds:) doesn't seem to return the correct height unless setting attributedStringValue and allowsEditingTextAttributes = true for the NSTextField. Is this expected, or is there a workaround? Here is the code: class ViewController: NSViewController, NSTableViewDataSource, NSTableViewDelegate { var asdf = "asdf fjdskalöf öf fjkldösa jfklödsa kfljsaödkfj klsdajf kldöasj flkjsdöa fkljasö flkjsa öj " override func loadView() { view = NSView(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 400, height: 400)) let scrollView = NSScrollView() scrollView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false let tableView = NSTableView() tableView.usesAutomaticRowHeights = true tableView.addTableColumn(NSTableColumn()) tableView.dataSource = self tableView.delegate = self scrollView.documentView = tableView view.addSubview(scrollView) NSLayoutConstraint.activate([scrollView.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.topAnchor), scrollView.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.leadingAnchor), scrollView.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.trailingAnchor), scrollView.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.bottomAnchor)]) } func numberOfRows(in tableView: NSTableView) -> Int { return 1 } func tableView(_ tableView: NSTableView, viewFor tableColumn: NSTableColumn?, row: Int) -> NSView? { let view = NSTableCellView() let text = AutoSizingTextField() text.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false text.cell?.wraps = true // uncommenting the next 2 lines and commenting out the line after them solves the issue // text.attributedStringValue = NSAttributedString(string: asdf, attributes: [.font: text.font!, .foregroundColor: NSColor.labelColor]) // text.allowsEditingTextAttributes = true text.stringValue = asdf view.addSubview(text) NSLayoutConstraint.activate([text.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.leadingAnchor, constant: 20), text.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.topAnchor, constant: 20), text.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.bottomAnchor, constant: -20), text.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 200)]) return view } } class AutoSizingTextField: NSTextField { override var intrinsicContentSize: NSSize { var size = super.intrinsicContentSize guard let cell = cell else { return size } var frame = frame frame.size.height = .infinity size.height = cell.cellSize(forBounds: frame).height NSLog("intrinsicContentSize \(size)") return size } override func textDidChange(_ notification: Notification) { super.textDidChange(notification) invalidateIntrinsicContentSize() needsLayout = true layoutSubtreeIfNeeded() } override func layout() { invalidateIntrinsicContentSize() super.layout() } }

Xcode shows compiler errors when accessing class properties and methods only when class is in separate file
When building the code below, two compiler errors appear in AppDelegate.swift: Value of type 'Slice<MyCollection<MySubCollection>>' has no member 'url' No exact matches in call to instance method 'remove' When moving the first 2 classes in ViewController.swift to AppDelegate.swift, the issues go away. Is this expected, or a bug? // AppDelegate.swift // import Cocoa @main class AppDelegate: NSObject, NSApplicationDelegate { func applicationDidFinishLaunching(_ aNotification: Notification) { var collection: MyCollection<MySubCollection>! let a = collection.first!.url! var subCollection: MySubCollection! collection.remove(subCollection) } } // // ViewController.swift // import Cocoa class MyCollection<Element>: MyCollectionProtocol { var elements = [Element]() } class MySubCollection: MyCollectionProtocol { var elements = [String]() var url: URL? } protocol MyCollectionProtocol: AnyObject, Collection where Index == Int { associatedtype Element var elements: [Element] { get set } } extension MyCollectionProtocol { var startIndex: Index { return elements.startIndex } var endIndex: Index { return elements.endIndex } subscript(position: Index) -> Element { return elements[position] } func index(after i: Index) -> Index { return elements.index(after: i) } } extension MyCollectionProtocol where Element == String { func remove(_ element: Element) { } } extension MyCollectionProtocol where Element: MyCollectionProtocol { func remove(_ element: Element) { } }

App Store Connect API: why do I only have to provide a checksum when uploading app screenshots and not for app event screenshots?
When uploading app screenshots, I have to provide a sourceFileChecksum and uploaded flag: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appstoreconnectapi/appscreenshotupdaterequest/data/attributes But that's not the case for app event screenshots, I only have to provide the uploadedflag: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appstoreconnectapi/appeventscreenshotupdaterequest/data/attributes The same is true for app previews and app event video clips. Why is this different?

Mismatching screenshot display types between App Store Connect website and API
When I open an iOS app in the App Store Connect website and disclose the Apple Watch section, it reads Apple Watch Ultra, Series 8, 6, 3, but the documentation for the API lists different versions: APP_WATCH_ULTRA APP_WATCH_SERIES_7 APP_WATCH_SERIES_4 APP_WATCH_SERIES_3 So the Watch Series don't seem to match. There is a similar issue with iPad Pro. The website reads iPad Pro (6th Gen) 12.9" Display and iPad Pro (2nd Gen) 12.9" Display, but the API reads APP_IPAD_PRO_3GEN_129 APP_IPAD_PRO_129 So again the Gen values don't seem to match. How should I interpret these values?

Determinate spinning NSProgressIndicator doesn't adapt to frame size and gets cut off
The following code should produce 6 spinning progress indicators of varying sizes: 3 indeterminate and 3 determinate ones. The first two of the 3 determinate ones are either entirely or partially cut off, which doesn't happen with the indeterminate ones. What's the problem? var progress = NSProgressIndicator(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 16, height: 16)) progress.style = .spinning view.addSubview(progress) progress = NSProgressIndicator(frame: CGRect(x: 50, y: 0, width: 24, height: 24)) progress.style = .spinning view.addSubview(progress) progress = NSProgressIndicator(frame: CGRect(x: 100, y: 0, width: 32, height: 32)) progress.style = .spinning view.addSubview(progress) progress = NSProgressIndicator(frame: CGRect(x: 150, y: 0, width: 16, height: 16)) progress.style = .spinning progress.isIndeterminate = false progress.doubleValue = 50 progress.maxValue = 100 view.addSubview(progress) progress = NSProgressIndicator(frame: CGRect(x: 200, y: 0, width: 24, height: 24)) progress.style = .spinning progress.isIndeterminate = false progress.doubleValue = 50 progress.maxValue = 100 view.addSubview(progress) progress = NSProgressIndicator(frame: CGRect(x: 250, y: 0, width: 32, height: 32)) progress.style = .spinning progress.isIndeterminate = false progress.doubleValue = 50 progress.maxValue = 100 view.addSubview(progress)

Simulate arrow key press in UITextView during UI test
I would like to simulate pressing an arrow key on the hardware keyboard attached to an iPad. In a UI test for a macOS target I can do this: XCUIElement.typeKey(.rightArrow, modifierFlags: [.option, .command]) but this won't compile for a iOS target supporting iPhone and iPad. Is there an alternative? What I would like to achieve in the end is moving the text cursor at the beginning of a particular sentence by pressing Option-Command-Arrow left a certain number of times, but if someone knows a better way, I'd be happy to hear it.

Force app interface style in Xcode UI tests with iOS target to be light or dark
In my UI test I'm trying to force the app's user interface style to be light or dark. On macOS, when the system appearance is light, I can force the app to be dark with this code: var app = XCUIApplication() app.launchArguments += ["-AppleInterfaceStyle", "Dark"] app.launch() Sadly, this doesn't work with a iOS target, and UIScreen.main.traitCollection.userInterfaceStyle is read-only. Is this not possible?

UIResponder.printContent(_:) is not called when tapping Print in navigation item title menu
By following the documentation, in Info.plist I have added UIApplicationSupportsPrintCommand = true, but when tapping the navigation item's title and selecting Print, printContent(_:) is never called. On the other hand, when selecting Move, move(_:) is called as expected. What's the problem? The issue can be reproduced by using the code below in a newly created Xcode project with the App template. class ViewController: UIViewController { override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() navigationItem.title = "asdf" navigationItem.documentProperties = UIDocumentProperties(url: URL(fileURLWithPath: "/asdf")) navigationItem.titleMenuProvider = { suggestions in return UIMenu(children: suggestions) } } override func move(_ sender: Any?) { print("move") } override func printContent(_ sender: Any?) { print("printContent") } }

UISplitViewController displays button to change the display mode even when presentsWithGesture = false
I have a document-based app which displays a view controller with a navigation bar (i.e. it's inside a navigation controller) which is also the detail view controller of a split view controller. I'm using this sample code to just show a back button in the navigation bar of the document view controller: class DocumentViewController: UIViewController { override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() splitViewController!.presentsWithGesture = false navigationItem.backAction = UIAction(handler: { _ in }) } } In a regular width, this works as expected: only the back button is displayed. In a compact width such as a portrait iPhone, the split view seems to display the navigation bar button to show the master view controller (the one with the icon to the right of the back button, labeled “Root View Controller"). According to the documentation of presentsWithGesture: When this property is false, the split view controller doesn’t install a gesture recognizer for changing the display mode. The split view controller also doesn’t display a button to change the display mode. Is this a bug, or an error in the documentation, or am I doing something wrong?

Relationship between App Store Version, App Clip Default Experiences and App Clip Advanced Experiences in App Store Connect API
According to the App Store Connect API documentation we can get the Default App Clip Experience for an App Store Version, and since on the App Store Connect website we have a single App Clip section for an iOS App, it seems that an App Store Version can have 0 or 1 Default App Clip Experience. But there is no direct way of getting the Advanced App Clip Experiences. The only way I can see is by getting the App Clip object first for the App, then listing all Default and Advanced App Clip Experiences for that App Clip. This makes me wonder: are Advanced App Clip Experiences not directly linkes to an App Store Version like the Default App Clip Experience? Does the list of Default App Clip Experiences returned from an App Clip object always contain a single object, or can it be more than one (perhaps older versions linked to old App Store Versions)? What is the relationship between App Store Version, App Clip Default Experiences and App Clip Advanced Experiences?

Text background color for newlines in TextKit 2
When using NSTextLayoutManager.addRenderingAttribute(.backgroundColor, value: NSColor.red, for: range), the background color for a line is only drawn as far as the last visible character. There is also a thin space between the lines where the background color is not visible. Whe using NSLayoutManager.addTemporaryAttribute(.backgroundColor, value: NSColor.red, forCharacterRange: range), the background color is drawn also for newline characters and soft line wraps. I would like to achieve the effect of using NSLayoutManager.addTemporaryAttribute(.backgroundColor, value: NSColor.red, forCharacterRange: range), but since I'm targeting TextKit 2, I have to avoid using NSLayoutManager. Is there a way to achieve this with NSTextLayoutManager or one of the other related classes in TextKit 2?

Get executable path from audit token provided by NEFilterDataProvider
I'm using this code to get the path of an executable from the audit token provided in NEFilterDataProvider.handleNewFlow(_:), forwarded from the Network Extension to the main app via IPC: private func securePathFromAuditToken(_ auditToken: Data) throws -> String? { let secFlags = SecCSFlags() var secCode: SecCode? var status = SecCodeCopyGuestWithAttributes(nil, [kSecGuestAttributeAudit: auditToken] as CFDictionary, secFlags, &secCode) guard let secCode = secCode else { throw SecError(status) } var secStaticCode: SecStaticCode? status = SecCodeCopyStaticCode(secCode, secFlags, &secStaticCode) guard let secStaticCode = secStaticCode else { throw SecError(status) } var url: CFURL? status = SecCodeCopyPath(secStaticCode, secFlags, &url) guard let url = url as URL? else { throw NSError(domain: NSOSStatusErrorDomain, code: Int(status)) } return nil } But it seems that some processes like trustd, rapportd, nsurlsessiond and timed have a non-nil path. For these executables I have to resort to this code, which I have read is not as secure: private func insecurePathFromAuditToken(_ auditToken: Data) throws -> String? { if auditToken.count == MemoryLayout<audit_token_t>.size { let pid = auditToken.withUnsafeBytes { buffer in audit_token_to_pid(buffer.baseAddress!.assumingMemoryBound(to: audit_token_t.self).pointee) } let pathbuf = UnsafeMutablePointer<Int8>.allocate(capacity: Int(PROC_PIDPATHINFO_SIZE)) defer { pathbuf.deallocate() } let ret = proc_pidpath(pid, pathbuf, UInt32(PROC_PIDPATHINFO_SIZE)) if ret <= 0 { throw NSError(domain: NSPOSIXErrorDomain, code: Int(errno)) } return String(cString: pathbuf) } return nil } This seems to happen with both NEFilterFlow.sourceAppAuditToken and sourceProcessAuditToken. Is this expected? Can it really be that some executables shipped with macOS are not signed?
