I've cross posted this at https://stackoverflow.com/q/79647300/6230282 Basically, I use command line and emacs app to develop on daily basis, but all of a sudden, LLDB is invoking Xcode to display source code for me, instead of printing them in command line. How do I switch back? Or alternatively, can I set a custom editor for LLDB? (lldb) version lldb-1700.0.9.502 Apple Swift version 6.1.2 (swiftlang-6.1.2.1.2 clang-1700.0.13.5) About Xcode: Version 16.4 (16F6)

I'm building out a number of XCUITests. At one stage in my app, we present an SKStoreReviewController to ask the user if they'd like to review the app now. All I'd like to do is dismiss the view, by hitting the "Not Now" button. Normally, for other "system" views, I'd something like this: let springboard = XCUIApplication(bundleIdentifier: "com.apple.springboard") let notNowButton = springboard.buttons["Not Now"] And then I'd do an appropriate 'wait' and tap action. But for some reason, this isn't working. Looking for advice on how to properly handle this screen.

Hi, today I upgraded Xcode to Version 16.4 (16F6) and the Simulator to version Version 16.0 (1042.1) since then I get the following message in the debugger with any project when running the simulator: load_eligibility_plist: Failed to open /Users/xxxx/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices/1B9FA609-7502-42DE-93A8-B856E2618A7F/data/Containers/Data/Application/4FA1B071-A5F1-4E00-B3AC-630E273DD900/private/var/db/eligibilityd/eligibility.plist: No such file or directory I have checked other similar questions but in my case I do not have Cocoapods installed.

I came across several "errors" being reported when I run my app, however my app seems to function correctly. I believe they fall in the category listed on this ( now locked ) thread https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/115461 However, I wanted to post the ones I found to clarify ( close to submission) just in case any of these end up being more than just log noise later. PLEASE let me know if you've come across these before and whether they impacted anything or if you can confirm they are just log noise.

I upgraded IOS to 15.5 yesterday and then my xcode failed to preview today. The error message I got is: Communication with Apple failed Your team has no devices from which to generate a provisioning profile.

Recently I upgraded to Sequoia only to find out that I can‘t run Xcode 15 anymore: I used to run it directly by opening up the app contents and run xcode binary from the macos folder. But this trick is not working anymore (xcode is killed before launch). I need xcode15 to continue working with a project that I have based in Unreal 5.3. I tried to migrate my project to xcode16 but I have thousands of compiler issues that will be hard to fix (with xcode15 everything was ok). does anyone know how to continue using xcode15 and not forcing us to waste time migraring to xcode16? thank you in advance

Hi all, I’m running into an issue with my iOS + Apple Watch app project, and I could really use some advice. My WatchOS app requires an iOS companion for settings and configuration, so both apps need to be distributed together. Here’s how I structured my Xcode project: Main iOS App target WatchOS App target WatchOS Extension target However, I’m very confused about how these targets interact, and things are not working as expected. The problem: I can build and run the WatchOS app and its extension independently in the simulator by selecting their schemes. When I select the main iOS app scheme, I get an error about ITSWatchOnlyContainer in the Info.plist—even though there’s no Info tab for that target in Xcode. I’m able to distribute the WatchOS app by itself, and the extension as well. But I can’t distribute them bundled together as a single package, and I haven’t found any clear resources that explain how to fix this. This is my very first app, and it’s frustrating to get stuck just before the finish line! Project Structure / steps to reproduce Let’s say my project is called MyAppProject, with these targets: MyAppProject Main iOS App Embedded target: MyAppProject Watch App Bundle identifier: com.example.MyAppProject MyAppProject Watch App WKCompanionAppBundleIdentifier: com.example.MyAppProject “Requires iOS App”: YES MyAppProject Extension Bundle identifier: com.example.MyAppProject When running from the MyAppProject scheme, I get this error (even though I can’t see or edit the Info.plist in Xcode for this target): “Please try again later. This app has the ITSWatchOnlyContainer key set in its Info.plist, which identifies it as a shell app surrounding a Watch-only app; these are not installable.” As a result, I can’t distribute the app as a bundle. I’d appreciate help understanding: How should the Info.plist files be configured for each target? What do I do if the Info.plist path seems missing in the Xcode UI? Is there a “correct” way to structure an iOS + WatchOS app for bundled distribution?

As far as I know, there was a time that you can capture GPU workload for opengles game app on iOS using Xcode. However, currently I'm using Xcode version 15.2 and iOS18，it seems the "capture GPU workload" button is always disabled when I'm trying to debug my game app which is using opengles api for graphics rendering no matter switchinng "GPU Frame Capture" to "OpenGL ES" or "Metal" or "Automatically" in the scheme. And I'm not able to capture GPU workload for my game on iOS. The only way to make the "capture GPU workload" button enabled is creating a new project using metal api for graphics rendering. But I don't want to change the graphics API, because it will cause a lot. Does Xcode still support capturing GPU workload for OpenGLES game app on iOS? If not, is there an alternative way?

For Xcode 15 and Xcode 16, whenever I try to use the Refactor->Rename command I get a spinning busy cursor for a short while then I get an alert that says: Rename Failed Refactoring engine failure. This happens on several projects and I've tried removing the derived data folder, but am at a loss to find additional troubleshooting steps. Are there other files I might remove or reset to get my "Refactoring Engine" back into shape?

Hello. In the Xcode 15 we were using this command in the terminal to run our tests on the Rosetta Simulator: xcodebuild -workspace CoreLibraries.xcworkspace -scheme CoreLibraries -destination 'platform=iOS Simulator,name=iPhone 15,arch=x86_64' test` In the Xcode 16 the same command doesn't work anymore. It produces the error: xcodebuild: error: Unable to find a device matching the provided destination specifier: { platform:iOS Simulator, arch:x86_64, OS:latest, name:iPhone 16 } Unsupported device specifier option. The device “iPhone 16” does not support the following options: arch Please supply only supported device specifier options. Running test directly from the Xcode UI using iPhone 16 (Rosetta) still works fine. Does anyone know how to modify the xcodebuild command to make it work again?

I try adding people as Sandbox Testers to my App, but Apple keeps saying that they already exist on the team, even though they're not. It always show "A user with this email address already exists on the team" It keeps happening with every address I try.

Hi, I developed an app and trying to publish but at the validation state i'm getting two errors. The errors as follows: (1) App record creation failed due to an invalid input. Request failed with the error code "STATE_ERROR.APP_CREATE.PLATFORM_NOT_ALLOWED_DUE_TO_CONTRACT_STATE", and reason "One or more platforms cannot be created for this app due to your provider's contract state. Creation of apps for the platform(s) iOS is not available due to your provider's contract state." (2) App record creation failed due to an invalid attribute. Request failed with error code "ENTITY_ERROR.ATTRIBUTE.REQUIRED", and reason "The provided entity is missing a required attribute You must provide a value for the attribute 'companyName' with this request" Which inputs and attributes are causing these errors? Thanks in advance.

Hello, We are reaching out to the official forum as an option to help us solve an issue we’re encountering with our app. The problem lies in the implementation of the AppIntents framework in our codebase, which, at the moment, is impossible to complete due to compilation errors occurring in specific targets of our app. We are currently using Xcode 16.0. First of all, we want to clarify that the integration of the AppIntents library poses no issues in our development targets (pre-production environments), since no additional code obfuscation steps are performed there. However, in the release targets used for production builds (those intended to be released to users), we encounter the following compilation error: These errors indicate that the “.swiftconstvalues” files are missing for all of the files in our application. We also want to highlight that we are using a code obfuscation tool called Arxan, provided by Digital.ai. This tool is integrated via specific Build Settings configurations, various files added to the project, and an additional Build Phase script. We have conducted the following tests: Disabling Arxan in release targets: The app compiles successfully and those files are generated (suspicious, I know). Adding a library with AppIntents references and an AppIntent in our app: Both scenarios produce the same compilation error. Creating a demo project with AppIntents and Arxan (basic implementation): The project compiles correctly and those files are in place. Contacting Digital.ai support: They suggested several changes to the Build Settings, but none of them resolved the issue. Additionally, we’ve attempted to gather information from the compiler to understand how these “.swiftconstvalues” files are generated. Unfortunately, we haven’t found any official documentation, so we would like to ask a few questions: Is it possible to interfere with the creation of these files in any way? For example, via scripts or other custom build steps? Is there any way to force the generation of these files through a build parameter or flag? Is it possible to bypass the “Extract App Intents Metadata” step during compilation? If so, what would be the implications of doing this when using a library that includes references to AppIntents? I know that involving a code obfuscation tool raises suspicions about it being the problem, we just want to know a little more about this compilation step to have some more context before reaching them again. Feel free to ask any questions or details, any reply is appreciated. Thanks

I have a new build/version of my app that required changes by Apple in order to approve. I created a new build and uploaded via XCode (it shows in TestFlight) but cannot for the life of me figure out how to get the "+" sign next to "IOS App" in App Store Connect.

At the Platform State of the Union, Apple demoed clicking a ✨ button in the Xcode toolbar to use Apple Intelligence in Xcode. I don't see that button in Xcode Version 26.0 beta (17A5241e). Am I missing it? It's supposed to be in the upper-left corner, right? Do I need to turn it on or something? I'm on macOS 15.5 Sequoia, on a 16-inch, 2021 MacBook Pro

I have an older Macbook, and it only supports Xcode 15.2, and I want to be able to work with my iPhone SE 3rd gen, which currently has the iOS 26 beta on it. Is there a place I can find the download for that, and can I even run it on that version of Xcode? If not, can I download a newer version of Xcode on MacOS Ventura?
