Considering below dummy codes:
@MainActor var globalNumber = 0
@MainActor
func increase(_ number: inout Int) async {
// some async code excluded
number += 1
}
class Dummy: @unchecked Sendable {
@MainActor var number: Int {
get { globalNumber }
set { globalNumber = newValue }
}
@MainActor
func change() async {
await increase(&number) //Actor-isolated property 'number' cannot be passed 'inout' to 'async' function call
}
}
I'm not really trying to make an increasing function like that, this is just an example to make everything happen. As for why number is a computed property, this is to trigger the actor-isolated condition (otherwise, if the property is stored and is a value type, this condition will not be triggered).
Under these conditions, in function change(), I got the error: Actor-isolated property 'number' cannot be passed 'inout' to 'async' function call.
My question is: Why Actor-isolated property cannot be passed 'inout' to 'async' function call? What is the purpose of this design? If this were allowed, what problems might it cause?
Hi There,
I have a iOS App which has been published and purely managing data by SwiftData. I use following simple codes everywhere in Views:
...
@Query var items: [Item]
....
if let firstItem = items.first( where: {...}) {
...
Then I encountered crash at Query that _items.wrapperdValue has some errors.
Then I tried to split first(where...) into ordinary way:
let filteredItems = items.filter(...)
if let firstItem = filteredItems.first {
...
It runs OK.
Is it a bug in SwiftData in 18.2 or I missed some steps to facilitate SwiftData macros?
How can I calculate polynomial coefficients for Tone Curve points:
// • Red channel: (0, 0), (60, 39), (128, 128), (255, 255)
// • Green channel: (0, 0), (63, 50), (128, 128), (255, 255)
// • Blue channel: (0, 0), (60, 47), (119, 119), (255, 255)
CIFilter:
func colorCrossPolynomial(inputImage: CIImage) -> CIImage? {
let colorCrossPolynomial = CIFilter.colorCrossPolynomial()
let redfloatArr: [CGFloat] = [1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0]
let greenfloatArr: [CGFloat] = [0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1]
let bluefloatArr: [CGFloat] = [0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0]
colorCrossPolynomial.inputImage = inputImage
colorCrossPolynomial.blueCoefficients = CIVector(values: bluefloatArr, count: bluefloatArr.count)
colorCrossPolynomial.redCoefficients = CIVector(values: redfloatArr, count: redfloatArr.count)
colorCrossPolynomial.greenCoefficients = CIVector(values: greenfloatArr, count: greenfloatArr.count)
return colorCrossPolynomial.outputImage
}
We are Java application developers and we have a question regarding camera access via WebRTC on iPadOS. Specifically, on iPadOS 17.1, we are encountering an issue when trying to access the camera via the WKWebView API in the Chrome browser, where an error occurs and the camera capture fails. Our investigation suggests that device access through the navigator.mediaDevices property via the WKWebView API may not work in Chrome. However, it works as expected in the Safari browser, leading us to wonder if this is a Chrome-specific limitation, or if it's due to an iPadOS setting or specification.
At this point, we are unsure if this issue is related to the WKWebView and WebRTC specifications on iPadOS 17.1, or if there are specific limitations in Chrome. We would appreciate any insights or solutions regarding camera access in iPadOS 17.1 with WKWebView and WebRTC, especially in relation to Chrome.
I can't find a viable path to call StoreKit from C++ right now and would love some ideas.
I'm implementing the code exactly as shown at 4:09 in
https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2023/10172/
However when I add any StoreKit functionality in I immediately get
"Actor isolated structure cannot be exposed in C++"
This makes me think I can't create a StoreKit view and call it from C++? Am I missing a better way? I don't think I can have another structure that holds the storeChooser in it because it will have the same problem (I assume, although I will check). Part of the issue seems to be that my app is C++ so there is no main function called in the swift for me to open this view with either, I was going to use the present function Zoe described (as below).
I've tried a lot of alternative approaches but it seems to be blocking async functions from showing in C++ as well. So I'm not sure how to access the basic product(for:) and purchase(product) functions.
import Foundation
import StoreKit
import SwiftUI
public struct storeChooser: View {
public var productIDs: [String]
public var fetchError: String
//@State //Note this is from the UI
@State public var products: [Product] = []
// @State private var isPresented = true
// weak private var host: UIViewController? = nil
public init() {
productIDs = ["20_super_crystals_v1"]
products = []
self.fetchError = "untried"
}
public var body: some View {
VStack(spacing: 20) {
Text( "Products")
ForEach(self.products) { product in
Button {
//dont do anything yet
} label: {
Text("\(product.displayPrice) - \(product.displayName)")
}
}
}.task {
do {
try await self.loadProducts()
} catch {
print(error)
}
}
}
public func queryProducts() {
Task {
do {
try await self.loadProducts()
} catch {
print(error)
}
}
}
public func getProduct1Name() -> String {
if self.products.count > 0 {
return self.products[0].displayName
} else {
return "empty"
}
}
private func loadProducts() async throws {
self.products = try await Product.products(for: self.productIDs)
}
/* public mutating func present(_ viewController: UIViewController) {
isPresented = true;
let host = UIHostingController(rootView: self)
host.rootView.host = host
viewController.present(host, animated: true)
} */
}
I am using CHCSVParser in objective-c to use the CSVString extension of the Array instance method.
When I installed a new app on iOS18.1.1, the correct value (@"Application,"abc,def"") was returned for both the first and second turns, but
when I installed a new app on iOS18.2, the correct value was returned for the first turn, but @"" was returned for the second turn.
Even when I debug with step into, I can enter the CSVString for the first turn, but I cannot enter it for the second turn and after. It's as if the instance method is not being generated.
There are in-app purchases between the first and second turns, but the view controllers that are called are also the same.
Is there any change between iOS18.1.1 and iOS18.2?

Hello,
I have a problem with Xcode, in C++ language. When I create a new project, I put my program in a file and click Build. It works correctly and without any problems, but when I enter a second file in the same project and click build, it says build failed. In the log it says, duplicate symbols appear.
Hi,
I'm struggling to understand using Swift-C++ in the same project. I have an existing code-base that makes heavy use of Swift-Objective-C interoperability.
We make use of swift classes in our project. When I enable swift-objective c interoperability I am running into numerous build errors in the generated bridging header.
I'm trying to understand why these errors exist and what to do to get around them.
I have a project that I've set up with some test code, and I'm running into an error here:
public class Foo {
let name: String
public init(name: String) {
self.name = name
}
}
public class Bar {
let name: String
public init(name : String) {
self.name = name;
}
public func getFoo() -> Foo {
return Foo(name: self.name);
}
}
In the header file:
Unknown type name 'Foo'
SWIFT_INLINE_THUNK Foo getFoo() SWIFT_SYMBOL("s:13ForestBuilder3BarC6getFooAA0E0CyF");
This error goes away if I use structs, but for the purposes of porting my codebase, I'd prefer to use classes. Do classes not play nice here? Or am I misunderstanding something.
Thanks.
I have been recently getting the following error seemingly randomly, when an event handler of a SwiftUI view accesses a relationship of a SwiftData model the view holds a reference to. I haven't yet found a reliable way of reproducing it:
SwiftData/BackingData.swift:866: Fatal error: This model instance was invalidated
because its backing data could no longer be found the store.
PersistentIdentifier(id: SwiftData.PersistentIdentifier.ID(url: COREDATA_ID_URL),
implementation: SwiftData.PersistentIdentifierImplementation)
What could cause this error? Could you suggest me a workaround?
We would like to show a user-friendly message but can not.
Description:
When attempting to create a duplicate passkey using the ASAuthrorizationController in iOS, the Face ID authentication times out SDK does not return a timeout specific error. Instead, it directly returns an error stating that duplicate passkey cannot be created.
SDK to first handle the FaceID timeout case and provide a distinct timeout error so we can gracefully manage this scenario before the duplicate passkey validation occurs.
Steps to Reproduce:
Implement passkey creation flow using ASAuthorizationController.
Attempt to register a duplicate passkey (e.g., using the same user ID and challenge).
Let FaceID prompt timeout (do not interact with the authentication prompt).

I'm trying to fix some Swift6 warnings, this one seems too strict, I'm not sure how to fix it. The variable path is a String, which should be immutable, it's a local variable and never used again inside of the function, but still Swift6 complains about it being a race condition, passing it to the task
What should I do here to fix the warning?
Does SwiftUI now support the ability for a chart to have two different Y Axes? ChaptGPT seems to think it does, but I keep getting compiler errors in XCode.
Hello, I have an issue with importing some .mp3 files into a swift playground project (in Xcode, not in the Playground app). They worked fine in the Xcode project, but for some reason playgrounds isn't able to find them. I imported them the exact same way as I did in the Xcode project.
I'm encountering an issue where certain images are not displaying on some iOS devices, while the same code works perfectly on others. There’s no error or crash — just some images fail to load or display. I've confirmed the image URLs and formats are correct.
Has anyone faced a similar issue or could suggest what might be causing this inconsistent behavior?
Thanks in advance!

Given the below code with Swift 6 language mode, Xcode 16.2
If running with iOS 18+: the app crashes due to _dispatch_assert_queue_fail

Hi guys,
I've been struggling for a few days with this really weird behaviour.
We made an app for our e-commerce website and found out that a part of the product page is missing.
For any reason, the header and first blocks of the page and footer are displayed, but then a massive part of the content is missing. This content is not loaded through ajax; that's why I don't understand why it's not displayed.
You can see here 2 screenshots of what the page should look like and what the page looks like with WKWebView.
I've been inspecting this with Safari; there isn't any blocking error in the console, and html elements are just empty. There is the div with class row and nothing in it.
The same website is working perfectly with native Android Webview.
If anyone has any clue to find out what's going wrong

'traitCollectionDidChange'
This function has been deprecated since ios17.
However, in ios18, when I changed the app to the background state or changed it to the foreground state again, it was confirmed that the function worked.
It hasn't been confirmed in ios17, but why is it only confirmed in ios18?
Hi, I'm relatively new to iOS development and kindly ask for some feedback on a strategy to achieve this desired behavior in my app.
My Question:
What would be the best strategy for sound effect playback when an app is in the background with precise timing? Is this even possible?
Context:
I created a basic countdown timer app (targeting iOS 17 with Swift/SwiftUI.). Countdown sessions can last up to 30-60 mins. When the timer is started it progresses through a series of sub-intervals and plays a short sound for each one. I used AVAudioPlayer and everything works fine when the app is in the foreground. I'm considering switching to AVAudioEngine b/c precise timing is very important and the AIs tell me this would have better precision.
I'm already setting "App plays audio or streams audio/video using AirPlay" in my Plist, and have configured:
AVAudioSession.sharedInstance().setCategory(.playback, mode: .default, options: .mixWithOthers)
Curiously, when testing on my iPhone 13 mini, sounds sometimes still play when the app is in the background, but not always.
What I've considered:
Background Tasks: Would they make any sense for this use-case? Seems like not if the allowed time is short & limited by the system.
Pre-scheduling all Sounds: Not sure this would even work and seems like a lot of memory would be needed (could be hundreds of intervals).
ActivityKit Alerts: works but with a ~50ms delay which is too long for my purposes.
Pre-Render all SFX to 1 large audio file: Seems like a lot of work and processing time and probably not worth it. I hope there's a better solution.
I'd really appreciate any feedback.
