Linking static libraries openssl to Xcode 15.2 project fails due to link errors
Hello, I used to add openssl static libraries (libssl.a, libcrypto.a) that, I created on Mac, and add them after to my C++ project within XCode. With Xcode 14.2 (and before) all works fine. Switching to Xcode 15.2, tons of link errors rise (ld: Undefined symbols). I tried _ld_classic to force use 'old' linker but no success. Rebuild the static libraries with multiple config param or upgrade to recent openssl library does not help. Any clues what went wrong when linking static libraries with Xcode 15.2 project? Thx.

Issue with Custom Error Message on invalidate in CoreNFC APDU Tag Reader Session
Hi everyone, I'm working on an NFC-related app using CoreNFC with APDU commands to read and write tags. I’ve encountered an issue when trying to handle the scenario where the user cancels the NFC session. Here’s what’s happening: When a user cancels the NFC session manually (e.g., by tapping "Cancel"), I see an error log indicating tagReaderSession|userCancelled. However, when I explicitly call session.invalidate(errorMessage: "No NFC tag found") in my code to handle a scenario where no tag is detected, the session still shows the error as userCancelled instead of my custom error message. This behavior is confusing both in terms of debugging and for providing feedback to users, as I expect my custom message to appear instead of the generic "user cancelled" message. func tagReaderSessionDidBecomeActive(_ session: NFCTagReaderSession) { // Session becomes active } func tagReaderSession(_ session: NFCTagReaderSession, didDetect tags: [NFCTag]) { // Handle tag detection logic } func tagReaderSession(_ session: NFCTagReaderSession, didInvalidateWithError error: Error) { print("Session invalidated with error: \(error.localizedDescription)") } func handleNoTagDetected(session: NFCTagReaderSession) { session.invalidate(errorMessage: "No NFC tag found") } I call handleNoTagDetected(session:) explicitly when no tag is detected, expecting the custom error message to show. However, the system still shows the cancellation error. Has anyone else experienced this behavior? Is this the intended behavior for CoreNFC, or am I missing something in my implementation? Any guidance would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Issue with page.selectionForWord(at:) in Mac Designed for iPad Mode
I’m encountering an issue with the page.selectionForWord(at:) method in my application. This method has stopped working in Mac Designed for iPad mode. The functionality works fine on physical devices such as iPhone and iPad, as well as on Mac, but in this specific mode, the method no longer works, and the application crashes. It is crucial for me that this functionality works in Mac Designed for iPad mode, as rewriting the entire code for Mac would be too time-consuming, especially considering the size of the application. Interestingly, a similar method, page.selectionForLine(at:), works perfectly with the same parameters in all environments, including the Mac Designed for iPad mode. This makes the issue even more puzzling. The issue began after the latest update. The app no longer responds to the page.selectionForWord(at:) method, which causes the application to crash. I have attached a test app to reproduce the error.

Reusing string catalog translations in swift packages
Setup I have 2 swift packages and I try to use stirng catalog to manage your localizations I would like to use some specific keys in these packages and some common ones (e.g. "ok_button_tittle") Problem statement I really don't like the idea of creating separate (but the same) translations in these packages I have tried using something like String( localized: "ok_button_title", table: "Localizable", bundle: .main, comment: "Ok button title" ) This does use translations from the main bundle, however this does not automatically create the keys in string catalog Question Is there any possibility to reuse the translations from the main bundle? Maybe there is a hack to make the keys appear automatically in the correct bundle? Or is it a bug?

How to let instruments - app launch template wait for process to launch , rather than actively launch by instruments
Hi there, How to let instruments - app launch template wait for process to launch , rather than actively launch by instruments? I need to profile the app launch performance when clicking a push notification or cold launch via a url link. How to let instruments to wait for the process and collect the data? Currently, I tried the command xctrace record --template "App Launch" --attach MyApp --device-name 'Phone-Dev' --output mytrace.trace But it soon failed with 'Cannot find process matching name: MyApp'. How to make it work?

Can't transfer CSV file to iPhone simulator
I'm trying to transfer a CSV file to my iPhone 16 simulator to use for testing my application, but it keeps failing. See the image below. That occurs when I try to drag the file into the simulator. I also tried to use the Share option for the file, but nothing happens with that. It doesn't transfer but it also doesn't fail. I'm assuming it's failing in the background. Anyone know what I can do?

Seeking Help - Need to Identify Date Contacts Were Added
Saw this info: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/contacts/cncontactstore But have no idea what I'm doing. This is a pressing matter and I need to determine the date/time contacts were originally created on my icloud account. I have tried the shortcuts method and it merely shows the date they were loaded into whichever device i'm logged in on if they were created a while ago

Reality Composer Pro: Transform scale in cube material cannot accept decimal value
Hi guys, I have set size of cube is 20 cm. Then i want to transform scale with values x: 0.048, y: 1, z: 0.0.48, But strangely it reset all value to x: 1, y: 1, and z:1. Then i want to try with another decimal such as x: 1.2, y: 2, z: 1.2 the panel will automatically reset it into x: 1, y: 1, z: 1. My question is how to set transform scale that can accept decimal number ?

Spatial audio personalised profile access entitlement "not available on iOS"
I followed this guide, and added com.apple.developer.spatial-audio.profile-access as an entitlement to the app (via the + Capability button – Spatial Audio Profile). I have a audio graph that outputs to AVAudioEngine. However, the Xcode Cloud build ended up with this error: Invalid Code Signing Entitlements. Your application bundle's signature contains code signing entitlements that are not supported on iOS. Specifically, key 'com.apple.developer.spatial-audio.profile-access' in 'Payload/…' is not supported. This guide says it's available on iOS. Does it mean not on iOS 17? In which case how can I provide fallback for iOS 17?

Prevent 2 videos from playing at once
Im building a video feed that scrolls and acts similar to TikTok or equivalent. Running into an issue where the video doesnt stop playing after you scroll to the next video, but stops only after the video after that. so it takes 2 scrolls for the video to stop playing, meanwhile every video starts playing when its in view normally, but because it takes 2 scrolls for the first video to stop, there are always 2 videos playing at the same time. Is there a function i can add so that only one video plays at a time? I tried the activeIndex with the onappear / on disappear but that didnt change anything other than all the videos following the first video wouldnt play. Here is some of the code I have, I need some dire help here. Swift Pros only - thank you in advance! import AVKit import MapKit struct LiveEventCard: View { let event: CustomEvent var isActive: Bool // Determines if the video should play let onCommentButtonTapped: () -> Void @EnvironmentObject var watchlistManager: WatchlistManager @EnvironmentObject var liveNowManager: LiveNowManager @State private var player: AVPlayer? var body: some View { GeometryReader { geometry in ZStack { // Video Player if let videoURL = event.fullVideoPath(), FileManager.default.fileExists(atPath: videoURL.path) { VideoPlayer(player: player) .frame(width: geometry.size.width, height: geometry.size.height) .onAppear { initializePlayer(with: videoURL) handlePlayback() } .onChange(of: isActive) { _ in handlePlayback() } .onDisappear { cleanupPlayer() } } else { // Error Placeholder Rectangle() .fill(Color.black.opacity(0.8)) .frame(width: geometry.size.width, height: geometry.size.height) .overlay( Text("Unable to play video") .foregroundColor(.white) .font(.headline) ) } // Gradient Overlay at the Top VStack { LinearGradient( gradient: Gradient(colors: [.black.opacity(0.7), .clear]), startPoint: .top, endPoint: .bottom ) .frame(height: 150) Spacer() } .edgesIgnoringSafeArea(.top) // Event Title + Subtitle VStack(alignment: .leading, spacing: 4) { Text(event.name ??

Xcode Git integration destroyed my git local repository
This is using Xcode 16.2 (16C5032a), MacOS 15.2, on MacbookPro 16 M1 Pro. I have two repositories, one for an application and another one for a framework. The repository framework is integrated into the application one as git submodule. I was going to push the submodule to Github using Xcode git integration. It detects some conflicts and ask to pull. I pull. A window appears with some conflicting files (5 or 6). Review them. While reviewing something in Xcode crashed, but as Xcode was still up and running, ignored the crash. Decided to cancel the conflicts window and inspect my local files. Pull again but this time I decided to pull both repos. Review the conflicting changes and decided to cancel again to continue by hand in a terminal. Then, I notice that the project for the submodule is in red and that the "Changes" tab shows a bunch of files with and admiration mark. I go to the submodule folder in Finder and... everything inside the submodule folder was gone, disappeared, lost... everything, even the ".git" folder (only remained a binary folder for a component I use for the framework but is empty). I decided to run a recovery tool. It finds nothing to recover inside that folder, nothing. A lot of files even from years ago but nothing inside that folder? how is that possible? I filled a Feedback assistant issue: FB16307182 Could it be possible that Xcode "moved" everything to another place (I'm desperate so I'm starting to think in absurd explanations) Thanks

Configure Format to Multiple Lines?
Is there any way to modify the behaviour of this command? I really dislike that it adds a break after the opening parenthesis and would also prefer it to use the traditional multi-line style where the lines are aligned with their semicolons. Alternatively, is there a way to run the "Format File with 'swift-format'" command without implicitly triggering "Format to Multiple Lines", as it apparently does? Having to reformat my method's signatures afterwards really makes this feature unattractive to me at the moment.

Xcode version 14.2 crashes as soon as opened in mac os 15.0.1
I have downloaded xcode version 14.2 from apple official archive. I ran xcode using these steps: Right click -> Show Package content Go to folder Contents -> Macos -> Xcode Run the xcode terminal app After this as soon as I try to open a project, xcode crashes. How do i run xcode of lower version as that specific version is required, I don't want to downgrade my macos as it will result in clearing my data or I have to transfer data.

Enrollment Payment Issue for Apple Developer Program
I have been trying for the past month to complete the payment for the Apple Developer Program enrollment. However, every time I attempt the payment, it fails, and my account remains pending. I have tried contacting Apple Support multiple times, and each time a case ID is created, but I do not receive any response. I have also tried using different cards for the payment, but the issue persists. I am attempting to create the account from Bangladesh.

watchOS app crashing on devices running watchOS 11+
We have a watchOS app in TestFlight that is currently crashing on any device running watchOS 11 and up. I have an older Apple Watch SE that's capped at 10.6.1 that can run the app just fine, but the same exact install on a newer device fails. This started happening after I updated my MacBook to macOS Sequoia and Xcode to 16. In order to get the Watch app to run on the 10.6.1 device, I had to change the Swift Optimization Level from -O to -Osize. I already filed Feedback on this (FB15691116). I've tried so many different things and have come up with nothing to show for it. When I look in the IPS file, I see that the crash point in my code on the watchOS 11 device is at KinesiaUOnWatch`@objc SessionDelegator.session(_:activationDidCompleteWith:error:): 0x3a3f48 <+0>: sub sp, sp, #0x60 0x3a3f4c <+4>: stp x26, x25, [sp, #0x10] 0x3a3f50 <+8>: stp x24, x23, [sp, #0x20] 0x3a3f54 <+12>: stp x22, x21, [sp, #0x30] 0x3a3f58 <+16>: stp x20, x19, [sp, #0x40] 0x3a3f5c <+20>: stp x29, x30, [sp, #0x50] 0x3a3f60 <+24>: add x29, sp, #0x50 0x3a3f64 <+28>: mov x19, x4 0x3a3f68 <+32>: mov x23, x2 0x3a3f6c <+36>: mov x22, x0 0x3a3f70 <+40>: mov w0, #0x0 ; =0 0x3a3f74 <+44>: bl 0x89818 ; symbol stub for: type metadata accessor for Swift.MainActor 0x3a3f78 <+48>: mov x24, x0 0x3a3f7c <+52>: adrp x25, 161 0x3a3f80 <+56>: ldr w25, [x25, #0x654] 0x3a3f84 <+60>: mov x20, x0 0x3a3f88 <+64>: bl 0x8980c ; symbol stub for: static Swift.MainActor.shared.getter : Swift.MainActor 0x3a3f8c <+68>: mov x21, x0 0x3a3f90 <+72>: adrp x0, 166 0x3a3f94 <+76>: add x0, x0, #0xc40 ; lazy protocol witness table cache variable for type Swift.MainActor and conformance Swift.MainActor : Swift.Actor in Swift Incident Identifier: 08E2F667-7965-4C86-B85E-9E2F03EAA963 Beta Identifier: AD390666-55CB-43B3-9B14-BD3E70F456EB Hardware Model: Watch6,1 Process: KinesiaUOnWatch [389] Path: /private/var/containers/Bundle/Application/B571E983-F2B0-40EF-9F0D-8C471CAEB3FB/KinesiaUOnWatch.app/KinesiaUOnWatch Identifier: com.glneurotech.kinesiau.watchapp Version: 5.1.0 (510271) AppStoreTools: 16B39 AppVariant: 1:Watch6,1:11 Beta: YES Code Type: ARM64_32 (Native) Role: Foreground Parent Process: launchd [1] Coalition: com.glneurotech.kinesiau.watchapp [464] Date/Time: 2024-12-03 15:12:51.1876 -0500 Launch Time: 2024-12-03 15:12:50.0000 -0500 OS Version: Watch OS 11.1 (22R585) Release Type: User Report Version: 104 Exception Type: EXC_BREAKPOINT (SIGTRAP) Exception Codes: 0x0000000000000001, 0x000000002053dd4c Termination Reason: SIGNAL 5 Trace/BPT trap: 5 Terminating Process: exc handler [389] But, as I said, this exact app runs just fine on an older watchOS 10.6.1 device. Has anyone else encountered something like this, or have any ideas on stuff to try?

Debug View Hierarchy not showing AVCaptureVideoPreviewLayer
I have an iOS application view that contains an AVCaptureSession, AVCaptureVideoPreviewLayer (created with the AVCaptureSession), and a UIImageView (in the backend the app takes the output of the AVCaptureSession, runs it through a Semantic Segmentation model, and displays the output in the UIImageView). When I pause the app and run the “Debug View Hierarchy”, it shows the UIImageView, the relevant buttons and labels. However, it does not seem to show AVCaptureVideoPreviewLayer that I have set up in my application. Is there some special set up that needs to be done to be able to view Camera Related features? The following is part of the view code, a component that is used to render the AVCaptureVideoPreviewLayer (not sure if this is enough, please let me know if its not): class CameraViewController: UIViewController { var session: AVCaptureSession? var frameRect: CGRect = CGRect() var rootLayer: CALayer! = nil private var previewLayer: AVCaptureVideoPreviewLayer! = nil init(session: AVCaptureSession) { self.session = session super.init(nibName: nil, bundle: nil) } required init?(coder: NSCoder) { super.init(coder: coder) } override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() setUp(session: session!) } private func setUp(session: AVCaptureSession) { previewLayer = AVCaptureVideoPreviewLayer(session: session) previewLayer.videoGravity = AVLayerVideoGravity.resizeAspectFill previewLayer.frame = self.frameRect DispatchQueue.main.async { [weak self] in self!.view.layer.addSublayer(self!.previewLayer) //self!.view.layer.addSublayer(self!.detectionLayer) } } } struct HostedCameraViewController: UIViewControllerRepresentable{ var session: AVCaptureSession! var frameRect: CGRect func makeUIViewController(context: Context) -> CameraViewController { let viewController = CameraViewController(session: session) viewController.frameRect = frameRect return viewController } func updateUIViewController(_ uiView: CameraViewController, context: Context) { } }
