I have quite a few in-door local packages that I do not really develop outside of the context of Xcode projects - meaning that I add local references to these libraries (and other content) to my Xcode project - and I update the libraries directly in Xcode within the project. I very rarely open up the library package on its own and work on it just like that. The unfortunate thing is that Xcode seems to be silencing warnings from all the packages during the build phase, resulting in me not seeing warnings from those libraries. I then need to open them separately in Xcode and review whether they contain any warnings and fix them. Using treat warnings as errors is, of course, one solution, but it doesn't help in cases where it's impossible to avoid them (e.g. https://github.com/swiftlang/swift/issues/86650) as there's no #pragma push; or in case of user-defined #warning which I often use to mark parts of code that need revisiting. I've gone through various settings, but I don't see anything relevant. Most of Google search is filled with attempts to silence the warnings instead of enabling them or wanting errors instead of warnings. Does anyone here know if it's possible for Xcode to display warnings from included packages and how to adjust such an option? Thanks!

Hi! I've been scratching my brain for a few days now to no avail. I have a Perl project that I need to embed within my app. Perl includes a pp command (https://metacpan.org/pod/pp) which takes the runtime binary and then slaps the Perl code at the end of the binary itself which in brings some woes in a sense that the binary then needs to be "fixed" (https://github.com/rschupp/PAR-Packer/tree/master/contrib/pp_osx_codesign_fix) by removing the linker-provided signature and fixing LINKEDIT and LC_SYMTAB header sections of the binary. Nevertheless, I've successfully gotten the binary built, fixed up and codesigned it via codesign -s '$CS' mytool (where $CS is the codesigning identity). I can verify the signature as valid using codesign -v --display mytool: Identifier=mytool Format=Mach-O thin (arm64) CodeDirectory v=20400 size=24396 flags=0x0(none) hashes=757+2 location=embedded Signature size=4820 Signed Time=5. 1. 2026 at 8:54:53 PM Info.plist=not bound TeamIdentifier=XXXXXXX Sealed Resources=none Internal requirements count=1 size=188 It runs without any issues in Terminal, which is great. As I need to incorporate this binary in my app which is sandboxed, given my experience with other binaries that I'm including in the app, I need to codesign the binary with entitlements com.apple.security.app-sandbox and com.apple.security.inherit. So, I run: codesign -s '$CS' --force --entitlements ./MyTool.entitlements --identifier com.charliemonroe.mytool mytool ... where the entitlements file contains only the two entitlements mentioned above. Now I add the binary to the Xcode project, add it to the copy resources phase and I can confirm that it's within the bundle and that it's codesigned: codesign -vvvv --display MyApp.app/Contents/Resources/mytool Identifier=com.xxx.xxx.xxx Format=Mach-O thin (arm64) CodeDirectory v=20500 size=24590 flags=0x10000(runtime) hashes=757+7 location=embedded VersionPlatform=1 VersionMin=1703936 VersionSDK=1704448 Hash type=sha256 size=32 CandidateCDHash sha256=0a9f93af81e8e5cb286c3df6e638b2f78ab83a9e CandidateCDHashFull sha256=0a9f93af81e8e5cb286c3df6e638b2f78ab83a9edf463ce45d1cd3f89a6a4a00 Hash choices=sha256 CMSDigest=0a9f93af81e8e5cb286c3df6e638b2f78ab83a9edf463ce45d1cd3f89a6a4a00 CMSDigestType=2 Executable Segment base=0 Executable Segment limit=32768 Executable Segment flags=0x1 Page size=16384 CDHash=0a9f93af81e8e5cb286c3df6e638b2f78ab83a9e Signature size=4800 Authority=Apple Development: XXXXXX (XXXXXX) Authority=Apple Worldwide Developer Relations Certification Authority Authority=Apple Root CA Signed Time=9. 1. 2026 at 5:12:22 PM Info.plist=not bound TeamIdentifier=XXXXX Runtime Version=26.2.0 Sealed Resources=none Internal requirements count=1 size=196 codesign --display --entitlements :- MyApp.app/Contents/Resources/mytool <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "https://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"><plist version="1.0"><dict><key>com.apple.security.app-sandbox</key><true/><key>com.apple.security.inherit</key><true/></dict></plist> All seems to be in order!

So I ran: xattr -l MyApp.app/Contents/Resources/mytool None listed. It is a signed binary within a signed app. There are other binaries that are included within the app and run just fine exactly this way (most of them built externally using C/C++ and then codesigned exectly as per above), so I really don't think it's an issue with the app's sandbox setup... Is there anyone who would be able to help with this? Thank you in advance!

Hi! I have a bigger Xcode project that has multiple targets: the main app (MainApp) helper command line tool (HelperTool) The project also lists multiple package dependencies via SwiftPM and these dependencies have dependencies between themselves. One of such packages produces a dynamic library MyFramework which is a dependency for both the main app and the HelperTool which has it listed under Build Phases > Dependencies as well as under Link with Frameworks. This builds just fine, but the issue somes when I want to add another target called AdditionalHelperTool which it has pretty much the same dependencies as HelperTool. When I add this second target, I start running into issues like the following: Multiple commands produce '[...]/Build/Products/Debug/Frameworks/MyFramework.framework/Versions/A' Target 'HelperTool' (project 'MyApp') has copy command from '[...]/Build/Products/Debug/PackageFrameworks/MyFramework.framework' to '[...]/Build/Products/Debug/Frameworks/MyFramework.framework' Target 'AdditionalHelperTool' (project 'MyApp') has copy command from '[...]/Build/Products/Debug/PackageFrameworks/MyFramework.framework' to '[...]/Build/Products/Debug/Frameworks/MyFramework.framework'` It seems that Xcode runs the build of both targets separately and it sees a conflict given that both targets have same dependencies that it's trying to built separately. Has anyone encountered something similar? Can anyone suggest a solution for this?
