Will Apple continue to support it, or will we wake up one day to find that Swift is the only viable language?It's a serious question. Careers depend on it. I don't accept the "No comment" approach that Apple usually takes. It's cruel.I'm willing to put the time into learning Swift if I have to. I'm not going to do it if I don't. I want to know.Frank

After ther Mac application is launched: Log error: CGSWindowShmemCreateWithPort failed on port 0 and when the application quit: No error handler for XPC error: Connection invalid Appear with Xcode 15.4 but not with 12.4 As repported by Steve4442 in "Can someone explain this message" https://Forums.Developer.Apple.com/Forums/Thread/727803 . The code don't use "windowNumbersWithOptions" Can I ignore this log message ?

Hello I was wondering if there is a way to ensure that a C program I am writing can only write to 1 virtual page. I am trying to test how space efficient different Mallocs are and I need a way to ensure that the OS will not try to swap out pages making the space efficiency test pointless. I am on Mac OS Sonoma v14.5.

Greetings! I am actively working on porting x64 code to Apple Silicon now that the time is nigh and part of the fundamentals of our software is a coroutine library for handling cooperative multitasking of GUI operations on the main thread. I was hoping to get the locations of the stack pointer and frame pointer in jmp_buf so, after setjmp() can redirect them to the primary handling routines in our coroutine library that handles the cooperative scheduling (which replaced and ported the old classic MP routines) which worked for PowerPC, i386 and x64. Any thoughts on where in the jmp_buf these might be located? I didn't see anything in the XNU open source. Any advice would be much obliged instead of having to dive in and re-implement these routines in assembly myself!

macOS Tahoe ships with Ruby 2.6.10 which was End Of Life in April 2022 (https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/downloads/branches/). How can I either upgrade it to Ruby 3.4.7 or delete it, so that my mac meets minimum cybersecurity requirements? I use rbenv for more recent versions of Ruby at the moment so don't need any suggestions on how to do add them, I just need rid of the dangerously out of date system Ruby, thanks.

Hello Apple Team, I'm trying to import the Audodesk FBX SDK to my Objective-C iOS Project. The SDK is written in C++, but has support for iOS and the iOS simulator architectures. I've added the path to the include folder in the Header Search Path I've also added the paths to libfbxsdk.a in the Library Search Paths Finally, I've added the libfbxsdk.a file to the Link Binary with Libraries. However, when I build the project, I get the following error: building for 'iOS', but linking in object file (/Users/Lond/Documents/v2/Autodesk/iOS/2020.3.7/lib/ios/debug/libfbxsdk.a[28](fbxalloc.cxx.o)) built for 'macOS' In the terminal, if I type the command: 
lipo -info libfbxsdk.a I get the message Non-fat file: libfbxsdk.a is architecture: arm64 confirming that I'm using the library for the correct architecture.   Do I need to add any other confifuration option? (Like the other linker flag or something else) I'm quite new to C++, and integrating a C++ SDK into iOS is not easy.   I'm using Mac Os Sonoma 14.6.1 Tested on Xcode 15.4 and 16.2 Target Device: iPhone 13 Pro (iOS 17.6.1) iOS FBX SDK version: 2020.3.7 Link to the SDK if needed: https://aps.autodesk.com/developer/overview/fbx-sdk   Any help would be greatly appreciated Thank you

My company wants to be insure that if my Objective-C to Swift conversions fail in anyway, that the app can revert to using the older Objective-C code. By using a remotely controllable flag, the app can switch which code runs as, both are compiled into the app. Essentially, I create a protocol that describes the original class, then both classes (with a "s" or "o" appended to them) conform to the protocol. Protocol: Object Objective-C class: oObject Swift class: sObject That said, I hit one issue that I just can't seem reason out. I create a Objective-C function that returns the appropriate class: Class<Object> classObject(void) { if (myFlag) { return [sObject class]; } else { return [oObject class]; } } Swift deals with this really well - I can create an initialized object using: let object = classObject().init() but I cannot find a way to do this in Objective-C: Object *object = [[classSalesForceData() alloc] init]; fails with "No known class method for selector 'alloc'" Is there a way to do this? David PS: my workaround is to return an allocated object: Object *createObject(void) { if (myFlag) { return [sObject alloc]; } else { return [oObject alloc]; } }

We developing Native App with C++17 for iOS. We override global new and delete operators. This App deallocate all allocated memories correctly by Run on Xcode (Command + R), but exception occurs launch from xcrun or App icon on iPhone. I debugged the exception. Overriding new operation was called correctly, but overriding delete operation was not called. The default delete was called. I'm not sure why is that. STEPS TO REPRODUCE Build xcode project. Run "xcrun devicectl device install app --device " Run "xcrun devicectl device process launch --console --device " PLATFORM AND VERSION iOS Development environment: Xcode 16.4, macOS macOS Sequoia 15.5 Run-time configuration: iOS 18.5 main.cpp I attached is sample code to reproduce this problem. main.cpp

I have a Swift Package that contains an Objective-C target. The target contains Objective-C literals but unfortunately the compiler says "Initializer element is not a compile-time constant", what am I doing wrong? Based on the error triggering in the upper half, I take it that objc_array_literals is on. My target definition looks like: .target( name: "MyTarget", path: "Sources/MySourcesObjC", publicHeadersPath: "include", cxxSettings: [ .unsafeFlags("-fobjc-constant-literals") ] ), I believe Objective-C literals are enabled since a long time but I still tried passing in the -fobjc-constant-literals flag and no luck. To be clear I'm not interested in a run-time initialization, I really want it to be compile time. Does anyone know what I can do?

I've been teaching myself Objective-C and I wanted to start creating projects that don't use ARC to become better at memory management and learn how it all works. I've been attempting to build and run applications, but I'm not really sure where to start as modern iOS development is used with Swift and memory management is handled. Is there any way to create modern applications that use Objective-C, UIKit, and not use ARC?

hi, Is it possible to compare two vectors and get a boolean answer? example : uint642_t a; uint642_t b; .../... if(a == b) .../... how to do it ? thank

I’m creating an app using SwiftUI, and I would like to incorporate a small Java codebase that I created for the Android version of the app. Is there a way to package the Java code to work on iOS and macOS

This is a continuation of https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/795348 I rambled too much and did not understand the underlaying problem. The problem is that I have a C function in a iOS library. I want to call this C function from a dylib that this library loads on runtime. When running directly from Xcode (either in debug or release mode) this works correctly. However, when the app is uploaded to testflight or distributed for debugging then the function is stripped and a null function pointer exception crashes the app. In the last post it was really hard to explain and I was pressed on time but I've created a minimal reproducible example: https://github.com/ospfranco/dylib_crash The instructions to run and reproduce the crash are on the README.

When I run app, it works on iOS16+ device. But when I run on iOS15 device just working on debug mode, if I run release or profile modeI got runtime error: Log: (lldb) dyld[4928]: Symbol not found: (_objc_claimAutoreleasedReturnValue) Referenced from: '/private/var/containers/Bundle/Application/C724D7C6-82FA-4AF3-AE83-EC035B4429A5/Runner.app/Frameworks/geolocator_apple.framework/geolocator_apple' Expected in: '/usr/lib/libobjc.A.dylib' thread #1, stop reason = signal SIGABRT frame #0: 0x0000000106cbb2cc dyld`__abort_with_payload + 8 dyld`__abort_with_payload: -&amp;gt; 0x106cbb2cc &amp;lt;+8&amp;gt;: b.lo 0x106cbb2e8 ; &amp;lt;+36&amp;gt; 0x106cbb2d0 &amp;lt;+12&amp;gt;: stp x29, x30, [sp, #-0x10]! 0x106cbb2d4 &amp;lt;+16&amp;gt;: mov x29, sp 0x106cbb2d8 &amp;lt;+20&amp;gt;: bl 0x106c8164c ; cerror_nocancel Target 0: (Runner) stopped.

We have an iOS App built in .NET MAUI (Multi-platform App UI). This is a web view App. We wish to integrate APP Clips into this App. But we are unable to do it, due to less available resources online on such implementation. We do not wish to share code between .NET MAUI App and App clips We understand it is not possible to add APP Clips without a parent swift/Xcode app. As an alternative solution we were thinking to Create a new APP in APP Store Connect using XCode/swift and integrate app clips to it. This parent app when downloaded by users will only redirect users to our MAIN .NET MAUI app to app store connect. We need to know if such apps will be approved by APPSTORE Connect? Please guide us on this Also please do let us know if you have any other solution to integrate App clips to a .NET MAUI App

Hi There, I have been using my Mac Studio to complete some work in Python (which I normally do in Linux) and recently I got this error which has completely stopped all development as venvs will no longer work correctly: WARNING: Ignoring invalid distribution ... (and then whichever apps are currently installed in the venv This occurs for me on every install of any version of Python installed using any of the standard methods (installer). I've tried all the main points of advice on knowledgeable forums, but the difference between Python on Sequoia and Python on Linux is enough such that I am at an end of my debugging knowledge. I've even attempted to blast away any System Python changes with a recovery reinstall, but the problem persists. I've done almost exactly the same setup on my MacBook Air and it is fine ... but the Studio is now unavailable for Python development. I know I have probably dropped the ball somewhere but can't see the error myself so, I'm wondering if I should just blast away everything on the machine and go through the process of doing a clean install. Asking the experts in MacOS here so I can avoid the pain of doing that!
