I’ve been struggling with this issue for a long time. When I try to archive my app to submit it to the App Store, I encounter two errors: Linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation) Linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

I want to understand what the recommended way is for string interoperability between swift and c++. Below are the 3 ways to achieve it. Approach 2 is not allowed at work due to restrictions with using std libraries. Approach 1: In C++: char arr[] = "C++ String"; void * cppstring = arr; std::cout<<"before:"<<(char*)cppstring<<std::endl;           // C++ String // calling swift function and passing the void buffer to it, so that swift can update the buffer content Module1::SwiftClass:: ReceiveString (cppstring, length);   std::cout<<"after:"<<(char*)cppstring<<std::endl;             // SwiftStr      In Swift: func ReceiveString (pBuffer : UnsafeMutableRawPointer , pSize : UInt ) -> Void { // to convert cpp-str to swift-str: let swiftStr = String (cString: pBuffer.assumingMemoryBound(to: Int8.self)); print("pBuffer content: \(bufferAsString)"); // to modify cpp-str without converting: let swiftstr:String = "SwiftStr"      _ =  swiftstr.withCString { (cString: UnsafePointer<Int8>) in pBuffer.initializeMemory(as: Int8.self, from: cString, count: swiftstr.count+1) } }  Approach 2:  The ‘String’ type returned from a swift function is received as ‘swift::String’ type in cpp. This is implicitly casted to std::string type. The std::string has the method available to convert it to char *. void TWCppClass::StringConversion () {     // GetSwiftString() is a swift call that returns swift::String which can be received in std::string type     std::string stdstr = Module1::SwiftClass::GetSwiftString ();     char * cstr = stdstr.data ();     const char * conststr= stdstr.c_str (); }    Approach 3: The swift::String type that is obtained from a swift function can be received in char * by directly casting the address of the swift::String. We cannot directly receive a swift::String into a char *. void TWCppClass::StringConversion () {    // GetSwiftString() is a swift call that returns swift::String    swift::String swiftstr = Module1::SwiftClass::GetSwiftString ();    // obtaining the address of swift string and casting it into char *    char * cstr = (char*)&swiftstr; }

Hi, I've got this view model that will do a search using a database of keywords. It worked fine when the SearchEngine wasn't an actor but a regular class and the SearchResult wasn't a Sendable. But when I changed them, it returned Type of expression is ambiguous without a type annotation error at line 21 ( searchTask = Task {). What did I do wrong here? Thanks. protocol SearchableEngine: Actor { func searchOrSuggest(from query: String) -> SearchResult? func setValidTitles(_ validTitles: [String]) } @MainActor final class SearchViewModel: ObservableObject { @Published var showSuggestion: Bool = false @Published var searchedTitles: [String] = [] @Published var suggestedKeyword: String? = nil private var searchTask: Task<Void, Never>? private let searchEngine: SearchableEngine init(searchEngine: SearchableEngine) { self.searchEngine = searchEngine } func search(_ text: String) { searchTask?.cancel() searchTask = Task { guard !Task.isCancelled else { return } let searchResult = await searchEngine.searchOrSuggest(from: text) ?? .notFound guard !Task.isCancelled else { return } await MainActor.run { switch searchResult { case let .searchItems(_, items): showSuggestion = false searchedTitles = items.map(\.title) suggestedKeyword = nil case let .suggestion(keyword, _, items): showSuggestion = true searchedTitles = items.map(\.title) suggestedKeyword = keyword case .notFound: showSuggestion = false searchedTitles = [] suggestedKeyword = nil } } } } }

Hello Everyone! I started programming 6 months ago and started Swift / IOS last month. My learning so far has mainly been with Python. I learned a lot of the package ‘SQLAlchemy’, which has very ‘example based’ documentation. If I wanted to learn how to make a many to many relationship, there was a demonstration with code. But going into Swift and Apple packages, I notice most of the documentation is definitions of structures, modifiers, functions, etc. I wanted to make the equivalent of python ‘date times’ in my swift app. I found the section in the documentation “Foundation->Dates & Times”, but I couldn’t figure how to use that in my code. I assume my goal should not be to memorize every Swift and apple functionality by memory to be an app developer. So I would appreciate advice on how to approach this aspect of learning programming.

When i am trying to archive a framework for ML, using below command: xcodebuild -workspace "./src/MLProject.xcworkspace" -configuration "Release" -sdk "iphoneos" -archivePath "./gen/out/Archives/Release-iphoneos/MLProject" -scheme "MLProject" -derivedDataPath "./gen/out/" archive BUILD_LIBRARY_FOR_DISTRIBUTION=YES SKIP_INSTALL=NO The same command used to work fine on Xcode 16.4. Attached is the detailed error MLProject_Archive_failure.txt

So I’m writing a program, as a developer would - ‘with Xcode.’ Code produced an error. The key values were swapped. The parameters suggested were ‘optional parameters variables.’ “var name: TYPE? = (default)” var name0: TYPE ============================= name0 = “super cool” ‘Name is not yet declared at this point provided with x - incorrect argument replace ExampleStruct(name:”supercool”) should be x - incorrect argument replace ExampleStruct(name0:”supercool”) ============================= In swift, there is a procedural prioritization within the constructor calling process. Application calls constructor. Constructor provides constructor signature. Signature requires parameters & throws an error if the params are not in appropriate order. - “got it compiler; thank you, very much” Typically, when this occurs, defaults will be suggested. Often the variable type. Ie String, Bool. such as: StructName(param1:Int64, param2:Bool) (Recently, I have seen a decline in @Apple’s performance in many vectors.) As stated before, the key value pairs were out of sequence. The optionals were suggested instead of the required parameters. This leads me to believe that there is an order of operations in the calling procedure that is being mismanaged. I.e. regular expression, matching with optional. This confuses these with [forced, required] parameters, and the mismanagement of ‘key: value’ pairs. this is a superficial prognosis and would like to know if anyone has any insight as to why this may occur. Could it be a configuration setting? Is it possibly the network I connected to bumped into something. Etc.. I appreciate any and all feedback. Please take into consideration the Apple developer forum, guidelines before posting comments. #dev_div

In trying to convert some Objective-C to Swift, I have a subclass of NSWindowController and want to write a convenience initializer. The documentation says You can also implement an NSWindowController subclass to avoid requiring client code to get the corresponding nib’s filename and pass it to init(windowNibName:) or init(windowNibName:owner:) when instantiating the window controller. The best way to do this is to override windowNibName to return the nib’s filename and instantiate the window controller by passing nil to init(window:). My attempt to do that looks like this: class EdgeTab: NSWindowController { override var windowNibName: NSNib.Name? { "EdgeTab" } required init?(coder: NSCoder) { super.init(coder: coder) } convenience init() { self.init( window: nil ) } } But I'm getting an error message saying "Incorrect argument label in call (have 'window:', expected 'coder:')". Why the heck is the compiler trying to use init(coder:) instead of init(window:)?

I want to use the Observations AsyncSequence on some SwiftData @Model instances to determine if internal calculations need to be done. When a simple property is linked to the Observations it fires CONTINUOUSLY even though no change is made to the model property. Also, when I try to observe a property which is a list of another @Model type the Observations sequence does not fire when I add or remove items. I am hoping to use the async-algorithm's merge function so all the associated sequences can be combined since if any of the associated events should fire the calculation event.

I think that it would be helpful to have better interoperability between Swift and JavaScript. There are a lot of useful packages on NPM that don't have equivalents for Swift. It would be helpful if Apple provided easier ways to use NPM packages in a Swift project. Currently, the JavaScriptCore framework is missing many standard things used in many packages, like the fetch API. It would be helpful to be able to run sandboxed JavaScript code inside of a Swift app but allow access to specific domains, folders, etc., using a permissions system similar to Deno.

I am implementing the FFT using vDSP.DiscreteFourierTransform. According to the official documentation, the count parameter has requirements as outlined below: /// The `count` parameter must be: /// * For split-complex real-to-complex: `2ⁿ` or `f * 2ⁿ`, where `f` is `3`, `5`, or `15` and `n >= 4`. /// * For split-complex complex-to-complex: `2ⁿ` or `f * 2ⁿ`, where `f` is `3`, `5`, or `15` and `n >= 3`. /// * For interleaved: `f * 2ⁿ`, where `f` is `2`, `3`, `5`, `3x3`, `3x5`, or `5x5`, and `n>=2`. Despite adhering to these specifications in theory, my attempt to initialize an interleaved DFT with count = 2 * 2 * 5 * 5 (equivalent to 5×5 × 2²) resulted in a failure. Below is the code snippet I used for the initialization: do { let dft = try vDSP.DiscreteFourierTransform( previous: nil, count: 2 * 2 * 5 * 5, direction: .forward, transformType: .complexReal, ofType: DSPComplex.self ) print(dft) } catch { print("DFT init failed:", error) } Could somebody more knowledgeable with these APIs have a look? Thanks!

Hello guys! I faced a problem with building... My device suddenly updated to iOS 15.4.1, my Xcode was 13.2 and I had to update it to the latest version (13.3.1) to build the app. After the update, I had a few problems which were successfully solved but one of them stopped me for a few hours. The problem is with Bridging Headers or Swift Compiler, I really don't know what I did badly, and what causes problems. On several forums I often read that is important to set: Build Settings &gt; Build Options &gt; Build Libraries for Distribution But in any case it doesn't work, on yes: error: using bridging headers with module interfaces is unsupported on no: (line with import framework SWXMLHash) /Users/blablabla/SSLModel.swift:9:8: error: module compiled with Swift 5.5.1 cannot be imported by the Swift 5.6 compiler: /Users/blablabla2/Build/Products/Debug-iphoneos/SWXMLHash.framework/Modules/SWXMLHash.swiftmodule/arm64-apple-ios.swiftmodule import SWXMLHash It will be important that I use Carthage. What should I do? Clone all 10 frameworks that I use and re-build them with a new Xcode which includes compiler 5.6? That may be a bad solution... Any answers on similar topics don't help..

I am trying to use initialize a Decimal type using its generic binary integer exactly initializer but it keeps crashing with a fatal error regardless of the value used: Code to reproduce the issue: let binaryInteger = -10 let decimal = Decimal(exactly: binaryInteger) // error: Execution was interrupted, reason: EXC_BAD_INSTRUCTION (code=EXC_I386_INVOP, subcode=0x0). Is it a known bug?

Hello, It is mentioned in CryptoTokenKit documentation: You use the CryptoTokenKit framework to easily access cryptographic tokens. Tokens are physical devices built in to the system, located on attached hardware (like a smart card), or accessible through a network connection. However, it looks like there is lack of documentation with simple example, how to access network token. I have a certificates in HSM (hardware secure module), which is accessible on network, and I'd like to access certificates on HSM on my Mac. Does anybody know, where to start with implementation? Thank you.

I am writing a SPM based project for MacOS. In this project? I need to access MacOS Keychain. I am write a swift test built by SPM testTarget(). I can see it generates a bundle ./.build/x86_64-apple-macosx/debug/MyProjectTests.xctest with an executable: % file ./.build/x86_64-apple-macosx/debug/MyProjectPackageTests.xctest/Contents/MacOS/MyProjectPackageTests ./.build/x86_64-apple-macosx/debug/MyProjectPackageTests.xctest/Contents/MacOS/MyProjectPackageTests: Mach-O 64-bit bundle x86_64 This bundle file cannot be executed. How can I execute its tests? I tried with xcodebuild test-without-building -xctestrun ./.build/x86_64-apple-macosx/debug/MyProjectPackageTests.xctest -destination 'platform=macOS' without any chance. Obviously the next question is can I 'simply' add entitlement to this bundle with codesign to fix my enttilement error. My error when running the test is A required entitlement isn't present.

According to the doc: The value returned is the same as the value returned in the kEventParamKeyCode when using Carbon Events. So where can I find kEventParamKeyCode?

Hello, I am developing a private internal Flutter app for our customer, which will not be published on the Apple Store. One of the key features of this app is to collect RF strength metrics to share user experience with the network. For Android, we successfully implemented the required functionality and are able to collect the following metrics: Signal strength level (0-4) Signal strength in dBm RSSI RSRQ Cell ID Location Area Code Carrier name Mobile country code Mobile network code Radio access technology Connection status Duplex mode However, for iOS, we are facing challenges with CoreTelephony, which is not returning the necessary data. We are aware that CoreTelephony is deprecated and are looking for alternatives. We noticed that a lot of the information we need is available via FTMInternal-4. Is there a way to access this data for a private app? Are there any other recommended approaches or frameworks that can be used to gather cellular network information on iOS for an app that won't be distributed via the Apple Store? my swift code import Foundation import CoreTelephony class RfSignalStrengthImpl: RfSignalStrengthApi { func getCellularSignalStrength(completion: @escaping (Result<CellularSignalStrength, Error>) -> Void) { let networkInfo = CTTelephonyNetworkInfo() guard let carrier = networkInfo.serviceSubscriberCellularProviders?.values.first else { completion(.failure(NSError(domain: "com.xxxx.yyyy", code: 0, userInfo: [NSLocalizedDescriptionKey: "Carrier not found"]))) return } let carrierName = carrier.carrierName ?? "Unknown" let mobileCountryCode = carrier.mobileCountryCode ?? "Unknown" let mobileNetworkCode = carrier.mobileNetworkCode ?? "Unknown" let radioAccessTechnology = networkInfo.serviceCurrentRadioAccessTechnology?.values.first ?? "Unknown" var connectionStatus = "Unknown" ... ... } Thank you for your assistance.

I'm continuing with the migration towards Swift 6. Within one of our libraries, I want to check whether a parameter object: Any? confirms to Sendable. I tried the most obvious one: if let sendable = object as? Sendable { } But that results into the compiler error "Marker protocol 'Sendable' cannot be used in a conditional cast". Is there an other way to do this?

Could they be caused by anything other than concurrent access from multiple threads (which I'm quite sure is not the case here, as I only access these arrays from the main thread)?

On iOS 18 some string functions return incorrect values in some cases. Found problems on replacingOccurrences() and split() functions, but there may be others. In the results of these functions in some cases a character is left in the result string when it shouldn't. This did not happen on iOS17 and older versions. I created a very simple Test Project to reproduce the problem. If I run these tests on iOS17 or older the tests succeed. If I run these tests on iOS18 the tests fail. test_TestStr1() function shows a problem in replacingOccurrences() directly using strings. test_TestStr2() function shows a problem in split() that seems to happen only when bridging from NSString to String. import XCTest final class TestStrings18Tests: XCTestCase { override func setUpWithError() throws { // Put setup code here. This method is called before the invocation of each test method in the class. } override func tearDownWithError() throws { // Put teardown code here. This method is called after the invocation of each test method in the class. } func test_TestStr1() { let str1 = "_%\u{7}1\u{7}_"; let str2 = "%\u{7}1\u{7}"; let str3 = "X"; let str4 = str1.replacingOccurrences(of: str2, with: str3); //This should be true XCTAssertTrue(str4 == "_X_"); } func test_TestStr2() { let s1 = "TVAR(6)\u{11}201\"Ã\"\u{11}201\"A\""; let s2 = s1.components(separatedBy: "\u{11}201"); let t1 = NSString("TVAR(6)\u{11}201\"Ã\"\u{11}201\"A\"") as String; let t2 = t1.components(separatedBy: "\u{11}201"); XCTAssertTrue(s2.count == t2.count); let c = s2.count //This should be True XCTAssertTrue(s2[0] == t2[0]); } }
