Within my code to fetch data from CoreData I have the following line: let itemNoSort = NSSortDescriptor(key:"itemNo", ascending: false) What I am not sure of however is that the above is the same as saying descending: true Can't seem to find it in the documentation.

I have a UIViewText that I have in all my UIViewControllers that carries over data from the entire app's instance. If I put the 2 lines that scroll to the bottom in the viewDidAppear section, the text scrolls to the bottom, but you see it occur, so it's not pleasant visually. However, if I put the same 2 lines in the viewWillAppear section (as shown below) then for some reason the UITextView starts at the top of the text. Am I somehow doing this incorrectly? override func viewWillAppear(_ animated: Bool) { super.viewWillAppear(animated) myStatusWin.text = db.status let range = NSMakeRange(myStatusWin.text.count - 1, 0) myStatusWin.scrollRangeToVisible(range) } override func viewDidAppear(_ animated: Bool) { super.viewDidAppear(animated) }

Sorry, my question was idiotic, and due to my bad typing skills (not the first time). So I am erasing it since I can't delete it Again, sorry

Updated info below Full disclosure: I do have this question over on StackOverflow, but I am at a standstill till I find a way to move forward, debug, etc. I am trying to recognize prerecorded speech in Swift. Essentially it either detects no speech, detects blank speech, or works on the one prerecorded file where I screamed a few words. I can't tell where the headache lies and can't figure out if there's a more detailed way to debug this. I can't find any properties that give more detailed info. Someone on SO did recommend I go through Apple's demo, here. This works just fine, and my code is very similar to it. Yet the main difference remains if there is something about the way I save my audio files or something else is leading to my headaches. If anyone has any insight into this I would very much appreciate any hints. My question over on StackOverflow Updated info below, and new code Updated info It appears that I was calling SFSpeechURLRecognitionRequest too often, and before I completed the first request. Perhaps I need to create a new instance of SFSpeechRecognizer? Unsure. Regardless, I quickly/sloppily adjusted the code to only run it once the previous instance returned its results. The results were much better, except one audio file still came up as no results. Not an error, just no text. This file is the same as the previous file, in that I took an audio recording and split it in two. So the formats and volumes are the same. So I still need a better way to debug this, to find out what it going wrong with that file. The code where I grab the file and attempt to read it func findAudioFiles(){ let fm = FileManager.default var aFiles : URL print ("\(urlPath)") do { let items = try fm.contentsOfDirectory(atPath: documentsPath) let filteredInterestArray1 = items.filter({$0.hasSuffix(".m4a")}) let filteredInterestArray2 = filteredInterestArray1.filter({$0.contains("SS-X-")}) let sortedItems = filteredInterestArray2.sorted() for item in sortedItems { audioFiles.append(item) } NotificationCenter.default.post(name: Notification.Name("goAndRead"), object: nil, userInfo: myDic) } catch { print ("\(error)") } } @objc func goAndRead(){ audioIndex += 1 if audioIndex != audioFiles.count { let fileURL = NSURL.fileURL(withPath: documentsPath + "/" + audioFiles[audioIndex], isDirectory: false) transcribeAudio(url: fileURL, item: audioFiles[audioIndex]) } } func requestTranscribePermissions() { SFSpeechRecognizer.requestAuthorization { [unowned self] authStatus in DispatchQueue.main.async { if authStatus == .authorized { print("Good to go!") } else { print("Transcription permission was declined.") } } } } func transcribeAudio(url: URL, item: String) { guard let recognizer = SFSpeechRecognizer(locale: Locale(identifier: "en-US")) else {return} let request = SFSpeechURLRecognitionRequest(url: url) if !recognizer.supportsOnDeviceRecognition { print ("offline not available") ; return } if !recognizer.isAvailable { print ("not available") ; return } request.requiresOnDeviceRecognition = true request.shouldReportPartialResults = true recognizer.recognitionTask(with: request) {(result, error) in guard let result = result else { print("\(item) : There was an error: \(error.debugDescription)") return } if result.isFinal { print("\(item) : \(result.bestTranscription.formattedString)") NotificationCenter.default.post(name: Notification.Name("goAndRead"), object: nil, userInfo: self.myDic) } } }

Trying to create an app in SwiftUI that uses HTTP for "gets", "posts", "forms", et al. I cannot assign URLSessionDataDelegate,URLSessionTaskDelegate, URLSessionDelegate to a SwiftUI view. So my assumption is that I need to create a UIViewControllerRepresentable for a regular UIViewController and assign the delegates to that UIViewController I just need to know if this is the correct path to proceed with? Or is there some sort ion tie in that I cannot find using Google? Thank you

I have a class, MyURL, from a UIKit app that I wrote that handles all my URL needs, uploads, downloads, GETS, POSTS, etc. I would like to use that class from within a SwiftUI view now. So the SwiftUI view that creates calls MyURL methods. And I would pass binding vars that would cause my SwiftUI view to update things such as statuses : percentage done, etc. My issue is, how can I properly declare that class, myURL, from within the SwiftUI view, so that it doesn't get redeclared every time the view updates. Should I declare the MyURL class in a view above it and pass it into the view that calls the MyUrl class? Would just like to do it the proper way. I wish I was better with terminology. Thank you struct ContentView: View { **var myURL = MyURL()** @State var proceed = false var body: some View { Button { myURL.pressed(proceed: $proceed) } label: { Text(proceed ? "pressed" : "not pressed") } } } class MyURL: NSObject, URLSessionDataDelegate,URLSessionTaskDelegate, URLSessionDelegate, URLSessionDownloadDelegate{ func urlSession(_ session: URLSession, downloadTask: URLSessionDownloadTask, didFinishDownloadingTo location: URL) { } func pressed(proceed: Binding<Bool>) { print("\(proceed)") proceed.wrappedValue.toggle() } // Error received func urlSession(_ session: URLSession, task: URLSessionTask, didCompleteWithError error: Error?) { if let err = error { DispatchQueue.main.async { [self] in //code } } } // Response received func urlSession(_ session: URLSession, dataTask: URLSessionDataTask, didReceive response: URLResponse, completionHandler: (URLSession.ResponseDisposition) -> Void) { completionHandler(URLSession.ResponseDisposition.allow) if let httpResponse = response as? HTTPURLResponse { xFile?.httpResponse = httpResponse.statusCode DispatchQueue.main.async { [self] in if httpResponse.statusCode != 200 { //code } } } } // Data received func urlSession(_ session: URLSession, dataTask: URLSessionDataTask, didReceive data: Data) { if xFile?.httpResponse == 200 { DispatchQueue.main.async { [self] in //code } } //DispatchQueue.main.async } } func urlSession(_ session: URLSession, downloadTask: URLSessionDownloadTask, didWriteData bytesWritten: Int64, totalBytesWritten: Int64, totalBytesExpectedToWrite: Int64) { let num : Float = Float(totalBytesWritten * 100) let den : Float = Float(totalBytesExpectedToWrite * 100) let percentDownloaded : Int = Int(num/den * 100) DispatchQueue.main.async { [self] in //code } } }

I hope this isn't too off-topic, but I'm in a bind My HD is so full that I can't download any new iOS' in Xcode. Actually, there's a lot I can't do. According to the storage part of System Details, Developer is over 100 GB. I have a huge external HD and would like to completely remove and clean Xcode, and the reinstall it on the external HD. 1 - Is this allowed? Some people say that all apps must be installed in the Applications folder. Checking the web I get both answers. 2 - If it is allowed, is there a way to properly clean out? Because every website I found that describes this procedure is touting their own cleanup app. Thank you

Am trying to figure out how to dismiss the iOS keyboard if my TextFields do not have focus. Obviously when clicking a button I can call a dismiss keyboard function. But what I wanted to learn was how to dismiss the keyboard of if the user hits return OR clicks off of the TextFields. Before I could figure out the "user hit return part" I got stuck at the user being able to click away from the TextFields. While I can add a onTapGesture to the text fields, I wonder if I can do something like detecting a tapGesture to the entire screen, so that if the user taps on any blank space I could call the dismiss keyboard function. import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { @State var textField1 = "" @State var textField2 = "" @State var hasFocus = "No text field has focus" @FocusState var leftTyping : Bool @FocusState var rightTyping : Bool var body: some View { VStack { Text(hasFocus) .font(.largeTitle) HStack { TextField("left" , text: $textField1) .focused($leftTyping) .onChange(of: leftTyping) { if leftTyping == false, rightTyping == false { hideKeyboard() hasFocus = "No text field has focus" } else if leftTyping { hasFocus = "focus on left field" } } TextField("right", text: $textField2) .focused($rightTyping) .onChange(of: rightTyping) { if leftTyping == false, rightTyping == false { hideKeyboard() hasFocus = "No text field has focus" } else if rightTyping { hasFocus = "focus on right field" } } } Button ("steal focus"){ hideKeyboard() hasFocus = "No text field has focus" } .buttonStyle(.borderedProminent) .tint(.brown) .font(.largeTitle) .padding(10) .foregroundStyle(.white) } .padding() } func hideKeyboard() { UIApplication.shared.sendAction(#selector(UIResponder.resignFirstResponder), to: nil, from: nil, for: nil) } } #Preview { ContentView() } Is there a way to do this?

Someone showed me the code below, when I was trying to figure out how to detect which views were being intercepted by one continuous DragGesture. It works, but I would like to find a tutorial whre I can learn what's going on here. From what I can tell, the background modifier is a closure, that calls a function which has a GeometryReader which returns a view. I've Googled .background as a closure in swiftui and still can't find any form of tutorial that discuss what is going on here. Not looking for the answers, looking to learn. Thank you struct ContentView: View { @State private var dragLocation = CGPoint.zero @State private var dragInfo = " " private func dragDetector(for name: String) -> some View { GeometryReader { proxy in let frame = proxy.frame(in: .global) let isDragLocationInsideFrame = frame.contains(dragLocation) let isDragLocationInsideCircle = isDragLocationInsideFrame && Circle().path(in: frame).contains(dragLocation) Color.clear .onChange(of: isDragLocationInsideCircle) { oldVal, newVal in if dragLocation != .zero { dragInfo = "\(newVal ? "entering" : "leaving") \(name)..." } } } } var body: some View { ZStack { Color(white: 0.2) VStack(spacing: 50) { Text(dragInfo) .foregroundStyle(.white) HStack { Circle() .fill(.red) .frame(width: 100, height: 100) .background { dragDetector(for: "red") } Circle() .fill(.white) .frame(width: 100, height: 100) .background { dragDetector(for: "white") } Circle() .fill(.blue) .frame(width: 100, height: 100) .background { dragDetector(for: "blue") } } } } .gesture( DragGesture(coordinateSpace: .global) .onChanged { val in dragLocation = val.location } .onEnded { val in dragLocation = .zero dragInfo = " " } ) } }

I am trying to watch an @EnvironmentObject in the Xcode debugger and it comes up as an Invalid Expression in the View pane. If I want to view it, I need to declare it as a local variable and then assign it the value of the passed in @EnvironmentObject. While not impossible, it's a lot of work. Or maybe I am doing something incorrectly and this is a symptom of that? Would like to resolve this. encl: Example code &amp; Screenshot, where choice is the passed/unviewable EnviornmentObject and ch is the local variable I use to view it in the debugger Project "TestingApp" File: TestingApp import SwiftUI @main struct TestingApp: App { @StateObject private var choice = Choices() var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { ContentView() .environmentObject(choice) } } } File: Choices import Foundation @MainActor class Choices: ObservableObject { @Published var aChoice = 1 @Published var bChoice = 2 } File: ContentView import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { @EnvironmentObject private var choice: Choices var body: some View { VStack { let ch = choice Text("\(choice.aChoice)") .font(.largeTitle) .padding(.bottom) Text("2") .font(.largeTitle) } .padding() } } #Preview { ContentView() }

Would like to be able to bring up the iOS keyboard in a SwiftUI view without having to use a TextField? The goal would be to capture each keyup, or keydown, using .onKeyPress While I thought I could create a TextField not visible to the user, was hoping there was a cleaner way.

Is there any app out there that lets you browse through a CoreData database? When I first started to learn Swift, an app called Liya seemed to work. But alas, no longer. it would just make it easier if there was anything out there that let you browse the data directly. Thanks

Can I open two separate Xcode windows with the same project ? I have multiple monitors, so would love to be able use them to view different files of the same project. Is there a way?

Before Xcode 15, when I could access the info.plist file, I was able to add exceptions to the App Transport Security Settings so I could connect with my home server, which has no HTTPS, just HTTP. But in Xcode 15 I have no idea, not can I buy a clue with google, on how to do this. Please help! Thanks p.s. I should probably add that one site mentioned going to the Target section of your project allows easy access to info.plist. Yet for some strange reason, there is no item in Targets, which is odd, as I can debug my. project.
