I'm trying to use FormatStyle from Foundation to format numbers when printing a vector structure. See code below.
import Foundation
struct Vector<T> {
var values: [T]
subscript(item: Int) -> T {
get { values[item] }
set { values[item] = newValue }
}
}
extension Vector: CustomStringConvertible {
var description: String {
var desc = "( "
desc += values.map { "\($0)" }.joined(separator: " ")
desc += " )"
return desc
}
}
extension Vector {
func formatted<F: FormatStyle>(_ style: F) -> String where F.FormatInput == T, F.FormatOutput == String {
var desc = "( "
desc += values.map { style.format($0) }.joined(separator: " ")
desc += " )"
return desc
}
}
In the example below, the vector contains a mix of integer and float literals. The result is a vector with a type of Vector<Double>. Since the values of the vector are inferred as Double then I expect the print output to display as decimal numbers. However, the .number formatted output seems to ignore the vector type and print the values as a mix of integers and decimals. This is fixed by explicitly providing a format style with a fraction length. So why is the .formatted(.number) method ignoring the vector type T which is Double in this example?
let vec = Vector(values: [-2, 5.5, 100, 19, 4, 8.37])
print(vec)
print(vec.formatted(.number))
print(vec.formatted(.number.precision(.fractionLength(1...))))
( -2.0 5.5 100.0 19.0 4.0 8.37 ) // correct output that uses all Double types
( -2 5.5 100 19 4 8.37 ) // wrong output that uses Int and Double types
( -2.0 5.5 100.0 19.0 4.0 8.37 ) // correct output that uses all Double types

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?
I've got a watch app, still with storyboard, WKInterfaceController and WatchConnectivity.
After updating it for swift 6 concurrency I thought I'd keep it for a little while without swift 6 concurrency dynamic runtime check.
So I added -disable-dynamic-actor-isolation in OTHER_SWIFT_FLAGS, but it doesn't seem to have an effect for the Apple Watch target. Without manually marking callbacks where needed with @Sendable in dynamic checks seem to be in place.
swiftc invocation is as (includes -disable-dynamic-actor-isolation):
swiftc -module-name GeoCameraWatchApp -Onone -enforce-exclusivity\=checked ... GeoCameraWatchApp.SwiftFileList -DDEBUG -enable-bridging-pch -disable-dynamic-actor-isolation -D DEBUG -enable-experimental-feature DebugDescriptionMacro -sdk /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/WatchOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/WatchOS11.2.sdk -target arm64_32-apple-watchos7.0 -g -module-cache-path /Users/stand/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/ModuleCache.noindex -Xfrontend -serialize-debugging-options -enable-testing -index-store-path /Users/stand/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/speedo-almhjmryctkitceaufvkvhkkfvdw/Index.noindex/DataStore -enable-experimental-feature OpaqueTypeErasure -Xcc -D_LIBCPP_HARDENING_MODE\=_LIBCPP_HARDENING_MODE_DEBUG -swift-version 6
...
-disable-dynamic-actor-isolation flag seems to be working for the iOS targets, I believe.
The flag is described here
Am I missing something? Should the flag work for both iOS and Apple Watch targets?
I've created a Julia interface for Apple Accelerate's libSparse, via calling the library functions as if they were C (@ccall). I'm interested in using this in the context of power systems, where the sparse matrix is the Jacobian or the ABA matrix from a sparse grid network. However, I'm puzzled by the performance.
I ran a sampling profiler on repeated in-place solves of Ax = b for a large sparse matrix A and random dense vectors b. (A is size 30k, positive definite so Cholesky factorization.) The 2 functions with the largest impact are _SparseConvertFromCoordinate_Double from libSparse.dylib, and BLASStateRelease from libBLAS.dylib. That strikes me as bizarre. This is an in-place solve: there should be minimal overheard from allocating/deallocating memory. Also, it seems strange that the library would repeatedly convert from coordinate form. Is this expected behavior?
Thinking it might be an artifact of the Julia-C interface, I wrote up a similar program in C/Objective-C. I didn't profile it, but timing the same operation (repeated in-place solves of Ax = b for random vectors b, with the same matrix A as in the Julia) gave the same duration. I've attached the C/Objective-C below.profiling-comparison.m.txt
If you're familiar with Julia, the following will give you the matrix I was working with:
using PowerSystems, PowerNetworkMatrices
sys = System("pglib_opf_case30000_goc.m")
A = PowerNetworkMatrices.ABA_Matrix(sys).data
where you can find the .m file here. (As a crude way to transfer A from Julia to C, I wrote the 3 arrays A.nzval, A.colptr, and A.rowval to .txt files as space-separated lists of numbers: the above C/objective-C reads in those files.) To duplicate my Julia profiling, do pkg> add AppleAccelerate#libSparse Profile--note the #libSparse part, these features aren't on the main branch--then run
using AppleAccelerate, Profile
# run previous code snippet to define A
M, N = 10000, size(A)[1]
bs = [rand(N) for _ in 1:M]
aa_fact = AAFactorization(A)
factor!(aa_fact)
solve!(aa_fact, bs[1]) # pre-compile before we profile.
Profile.init(n = 10^6, delay = 0.0003)
@profile (for i in 1:M; solve!(aa_fact, bs[i]); end;)
Profile.print(C = true, format = :flat, sortedby = :count)
I'm dealing with a strange bug where I am requesting read access for 'appleExerciseTime' and 'activitySummaryType', and despite enabling both in the permission sheet, they are being set to 'sharingDenied'.
I'm writing a Swift Test for making sure permissions are being granted.
@Test
func PermissionsGranted() {
try await self.manager.getPermissions()
for type in await manager.allHealthTypes {
let status = await manager.healthStore.authorizationStatus(for: type)
#expect(status == .sharingAuthorized, "\(type) authorization status is \(status)")
}
}
let healthTypesToShare: Set<HKSampleType> = [
HKQuantityType(.bodyMass),
HKQuantityType(.bodyFatPercentage),
HKQuantityType(.leanBodyMass),
HKQuantityType(.activeEnergyBurned),
HKQuantityType(.basalEnergyBurned),
HKObjectType.workoutType()
]
let allHealthTypes: Set<HKObjectType> = [
HKQuantityType(.bodyMass),
HKQuantityType(.bodyFatPercentage),
HKQuantityType(.leanBodyMass),
HKQuantityType(.activeEnergyBurned),
HKQuantityType(.basalEnergyBurned),
HKQuantityType(.appleExerciseTime),
HKObjectType.activitySummaryType()
]
let healthStore = HKHealthStore()
func getPermissions() async throws {
try await healthStore.requestAuthorization(toShare: self.healthTypesToShare, read: self.allHealthTypes)
}
After 'getPermissions' runs, the permission sheet shows up on the Simulator, and I accept all. I've double checked that the failing permissions show up on the sheet and are enabled. Then the test fails with:
Expectation failed: (status → HKAuthorizationStatus(rawValue: 1)) == (.sharingAuthorized → HKAuthorizationStatus(rawValue: 2)) HKActivitySummaryTypeIdentifier authorization status is HKAuthorizationStatus(rawValue: 1)
Expectation failed: (status → HKAuthorizationStatus(rawValue: 1)) == (.sharingAuthorized → HKAuthorizationStatus(rawValue: 2)) HKActivitySummaryTypeIdentifier authorization status is HKAuthorizationStatus(rawValue: 1)
With the rawValue of '1' being 'sharingDenied'. All other permissions are granted. Is there a workaround here, or something I'm potentially doing wrong?
Hi I'm new here - I'm trying to learn Swift and SwiftUI.
Tried on PluralSight and Udemy but they have been outdated and thus hard to follow.
So after finding Apples own guides I felt relieved and happy, but now I'm stuck again.
After they've updated Xcode to use #Preview instead of PreviewProvider it's hard to follow along on their tutorial.
Does anyone know of good resources to study SwiftUI? Or know if apple plan to update their tutorials any time soon?
I'm here now if anyone's interested or it's useful information: https://developer.apple.com/tutorials/app-dev-training/managing-state-and-life-cycle
Does anyone know if there will be a Swift 6 version of "The Swift Programming Language" book and if so, when it will be released for Apple Books?

I have a s hared library in C++ that was built with GNU Libtool, and I want to bundle it with my Swift app and call it from the app. How can I bundle it and call it?
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]);
}
}

I have an @objC used for notification.
kTag is an Int constant, fieldBeingEdited is an Int variable.
The following code fails at compilation with error: Command CompileSwift failed with a nonzero exit code if I capture self (I edited code, to have minimal case)
@objc func keyboardDone(_ sender : UIButton) {
DispatchQueue.main.async { [self] () -> Void in
switch fieldBeingEdited {
case kTag : break
default : break
}
}
}
If I explicitly use self, it compiles, even with self captured:
@objc func keyboardDone(_ sender : UIButton) {
DispatchQueue.main.async { [self] () -> Void in
switch fieldBeingEdited { // <<-- no need for self here
case self.kTag : break // <<-- self here
default : break
}
}
}
This compiles as well:
@objc func keyboardDone(_ sender : UIButton) {
DispatchQueue.main.async { () -> Void in
switch self.fieldBeingEdited { // <<-- no need for self here
case self.kTag : break // <<-- self here
default : break
}
}
}
Is it a compiler bug or am I missing something ?
Last night my iPhone game crashed while running in debug mode on my iPhone. I just plugged it into my Mac, and was able to find the ips file. The stack trace shows the function in my app where it crashed, and then a couple of frames in libswiftCore.dylib before an assertion failure.
My question is - I've got absolutely no idea what the assertion failure actually was, all I have is...
0 libswiftCore.dylib 0x1921412a0 closure #1 in closure #1 in closure #1 in _assertionFailure(_:_:file:line:flags:) + 228
1 libswiftCore.dylib 0x192141178 closure #1 in closure #1 in _assertionFailure(_:_:file:line:flags:) + 327
2 libswiftCore.dylib 0x192140b4c _assertionFailure(_:_:file:line:flags:) + 183
3 MyGame.debug.dylib 0x104e52818 SentryBrain.takeTurn(actor:) + 1240
...
How do I figure out what the assertion failure was that triggered the crash? How do I figure out what line of code in takeTurn(...) triggered the failing assertion failure?
The following code works when compiling for macOS:
print(NSMutableDictionary().isEqual(to: NSMutableDictionary()))
but produces a compiler error when compiling for iOS:
'NSMutableDictionary' is not convertible to '[AnyHashable : Any]'
NSDictionary.isEqual(to:) has the same signature on macOS and iOS. Why does this happen? Can I use NSDictionary.isEqual(_:) instead?
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.
Hello,
I have a test variable here which works fine:
var quotes: [(quote: String, order: Int)] = [
("I live you the more ...", 1),
("There is nothing permanent ...", 2),
("You cannot shake hands ...", 3),
("Lord, make me an instrument...", 4)
]
and I have a test function which successfully pulls data from a mysql database via a web service and displays it via the "print" function:
func getPrice(){
if let url = URL(string:"https://www.TEST.com/test_connection.php"){
URLSession.shared.dataTask(with: url) { (data, response, error) in
if let data = data{
if let json = try? JSONDecoder().decode([[String:String]].self, from: data){
json.forEach { row in
print(row["quote"]!)
print(row["order"]!)
}
}
else{
}
}
else{
print("wrong :-(")
}
}.resume()
}
}
Please can you tell me how to re-write the quotes variable/array so that it returns the results that are found in the getPrice() function?

}
}
struct ShareView: View {
var extensionContext: NSExtensionContext?
var itemProviders: [NSItemProvider]
var body: some View {
VStack{}
.task{
await extractItems()

func extractItems() async {
guard let itemProvider = itemProviders.first else { return }
guard itemProvider.hasItemConformingToTypeIdentifier(UTType.url.identifier) else { return }

try await downloadAndSaveMedia(reelURL: url.absoluteString)
extensionContext?.completeRequest(returningItems: [])
}

}
On the line 34
guard let url = try await itemProvider.loadItem

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:

Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thank you
Hi the below array and code to output a list item works fine:
var quotes = [
[
"quote": "I live you the more ...",
"order": "1"
],
[
"quote": "There is nothing permanent ...",
"order": "2"
],
[
"quote": "You cannot shake hands ...",
"order": "3"
],
[
"quote": "Lord, make me an instrument...",
"order": "4"
]
]
cell.textLabel?.text = quotes[indexPath.row]["quote"]
However if I change the "order" values to be numbers rather than text like below then for the above line I get an error message in Xcode "No exact matches in call to subscript". Please could someone tell me how to make it work with the numbers stored as numbers? (I'm wondering if creating an any array type and using the .text function has caused a conflict but I can't find how to resolve)
[
"quote": "I live you the more ...",
"order": 1
],
[
"quote": "There is nothing permanent ...",
"order": 2
],
[
"quote": "You cannot shake hands ...",
"order": 3
],
[
"quote": "Lord, make me an instrument...",
"order": 4
]
]
Thank you for any pointers :-)
I use AppIntent to trigger a widget refresh, Appint is used on Button or Toggle,as follows
var isAudibleArming = false
struct SoundAlarmIntent: AppIntent {
static var title: LocalizedStringResource = "SoundAlarmIntent"
func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult {
isAudibleArming = true
return .result()
}
}
func timeline( for configuration: DynamicIntentWidgetPersonIntent, in context: Context ) async -> Timeline {
var entries: [Entry] = []
let currentDate = Date()
let entry = Entry(person: person(for: configuration))
entries.append(entry)
if isAudibleArming {
let entry2 = Entry(person: Person(name: "Friend4", dateOfBirth: currentDate.adding(.second, value: 6)))
entries.append(entry2)
}
return .init(entries: entries, policy: .never)
}
The timeline function fires, with entry corresponding to view1 and entry2 corresponding to view2. I expect to show view1 immediately and view2 6 seconds later. You get the correct response on iOS17. But the 6 second delay function on the discovery code in iOS18.2 takes effect immediately, view1 flashes, view2 appears immediately instead of waiting 6 seconds to appear.
