SwiftData: filtering against an array of PersistentIdentifiers
I would like to have a SwiftData predicate that filters against an array of PersistentIdentifiers. A trivial use case could filtering Posts by one or more Categories. This sounds like something that must be trivial to do. When doing the following, however: let categoryIds: [PersistentIdentifier] = categoryFilter.map { $0.id } let pred = #Predicate<Post> { if let catId = $0.category?.persistentModelID { return categoryIds.contains(catId) } else { return false } } The code compiles, but produces the following runtime exception (XCode 26 beta, iOS 26 simulator): 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: 'unimplemented SQL generation for predicate : (TERNARY(item != nil, item, nil) IN {}) (bad LHS)' Strangely, the same code works if the array to filter against is an array of a primitive type, e.g. String or Int. What is going wrong here and what could be a possible workaround?

SwiftData: Unexpected backing data for snapshot creation
When deleting a SwiftData entity, I sometimes encounter the following error in a document based SwiftUI app: Fatal error: Unexpected backing data for snapshot creation: SwiftData._FullFutureBackingData<MyEntityClass> The deletion happens in a SwiftUI View and the code used to retrieve the entity is standard (the ModelContext is injected from the @Environment): let myEntity = modelContext.model(for: entityIdToDelete) modelContext.delete(myEntity) Unfortunately, I haven't yet managed to isolate this any further in order to come up with a reproducible PoC. Could you give me further information about what this error means?
