With Swift being brought to new places, is anyone working on interoperability with PHP? I'd love to replace much of my PHP and Javascript web code with Swift (and ideally SwiftUI for UI design). Are there any projects/people working in this space?

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 :-)

Consider this simple miniature of my iOS Share Extension: import SwiftUI import Photos class ShareViewController: UIViewController { override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() if let itemProviders = (extensionContext?.inputItems.first as?

Hi, I'm trying to add Swift code to my Obj-C project. I've gone through all the tutorials and troubleshooting advice I can find online, no dice. I would appreciate any help, thank you so much in advance. I add a new swift file to my Obj-C project XCode offers to create a bridging header file for me, yes please New .swift file and .h file are added to my project no problem Header file shows up in build settings no problem I add a new class to my new swift file ("@objc class HelloPrinter: NSObject") When I build the app, nothing is generated in the bridging header file and the class is obviously inaccessible to my obj-c code Is this supposed to work? My understanding is that it's supposed to work. Somewhat concerning is the text that XCode puts in the bridging header file when it's created: "Use this file to import your target's public headers that you would like to expose to Swift." I don't want to use this bridging header file for anything. I want XCode to GENERATE STUFF in the bridging file. I also don't want to expose anything to Swift. I want the opposite to happen. So I don't get this text at all. Thanks in advance again.

func oneStepForward(_ input: Int) -> Int { return input + 1 } func oneStepBackward(_ input: Int) -> Int { return input - 1 } func chooseStepFunction(backward: Bool) -> (Int) -> Int { return backward ? oneStepBackward : oneStepForward //Error. type of expression is ambiguous without a type annotation } Why am I getting this error ? If I change this function to the following it works and will compile. func chooseStepFunction(backward: Bool) -> (Int) -> Int { if backward { return oneStepBackward } else { return oneStepForward } } // Why am I getting the error in the previous version while it works in the second version ? Thx in advance.

I have a simple shell script as follows: #!/bin/bash OUTPUT="network.$(date +'%d-%m-%y').info.txt" SUPPORT_ID="email" echo "---------------------------------------------------" > $OUTPUT echo "Run date and time: $(date)" >> $OUTPUT echo "---------------------------------------------------" >> $OUTPUT ifconfig >> $OUTPUT echo "---------------------------------------------------" >> $OUTPUT echo "Network info written to file: $OUTPUT." echo "Please email this file to: $SUPPORT_ID." It just dumps the network config into a file. At some point I will have the file emailed out, but right now I'm just trying to figure out why the output looks like the following? bash ./test.sh .etwork info written to file: network.26-01-25.info.txt .lease email this file to: email Why in the world does the initial character of the last couple of "echo" commands get clipped and turned into periods? The echos for the output of the commands piped into the output file are fine. Strange... Any ideas?

Hi Apple Developer Community, I'm facing a crash when updating an array of tuples from both a background thread and the main thread simultaneously. Here's a simplified version of the code in a macOS app using AppKit: class ViewController: NSViewController { var mainthreadButton = NSButton(title: "test", target: self, action: nil) var numbers = Array(repeating: (dim: Int, key: String)(0, "default"), count: 1000) override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() view.addSubview(mainthreadButton) mainthreadButton.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false mainthreadButton.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.centerXAnchor).isActive = true mainthreadButton.centerYAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.centerYAnchor).isActive = true mainthreadButton.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 100).isActive = true mainthreadButton.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 100).isActive = true mainthreadButton.target = self mainthreadButton.action = #selector(arraytest(_:)) } @objc func arraytest(_ sender: NSButton) { print("array update started") // Background update DispatchQueue.global().async { for i in 0..<1000 { self.numbers[i].dim = i } } // Main thread update var sum = 0 for i in 0..<1000 { numbers[i].dim = i + 1 sum += numbers[i].dim print("test \(sum)") } mainthreadButton.title = "test = \(sum)" } } This results in a crash with the following message: malloc: double free for ptr 0x136040c00 malloc: *** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug What's interesting: This crash only happens when the tuple contains a String ((dim: Int, key: String)) If I change the tuple type to use two Int values ((dim: Int, key: Int)), the crash does not occur My Questions: Why does mutating an array of tuples containing a String crash when accessed from multiple threads? Why is the crash avoided when the tuple contains only primitive types like Int? Is there an underlying memory management issue with value types containing reference types like String? Any explanation about this behavior and best practices for thread-safe mutation of such arrays would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

I can't find any simple c++ xcodeproj call to swift struct using modern c++ swift mix. there is the fibonacci example that is swift app call to c++. Base on fibonacci example I create new simple project and fail to build it with error when I try to include #include <SwiftMixTester/SwiftMixTester-Swift.h> What is wrong? Is it the right place to ask this? Any work project link? Xcode 26.

I just added a .systemLarge widget to my app, but I can't get Links to work. I want the user to be able to tap one of the four rows in my widget - like the EmojiRangers example - but I can't get it to work. I watched a Developer video from WWDC20: https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2020/10036?time=223 The guy, Izzy, 'simply' embeds an HStack in a Link, and hey presto! It all works. But that doesn't happen for me. There's clearly some code in the background that runs. I already have .widgetURL working for .systemSmall and .systemMedium widgets, and I don't need to use Links on those two types. Those work by sending a URL to .onOpenURL { incomingURL in ... All good there, no issues. I've wrapped each row in the large widget in a Link with the URL of something like myappurlscheme://widgetTapped/widgetId (it's the same url as that used in the small and medium widgets). I build & run. I tap a row. It doesn't act as though a row is tappable (it doesn't go slightly transparent), and just opens the app without hitting .onOpenURL or anything else. Nothing in my scene delegate is triggered. Is there a specific delegate method that gets called? Do I need to set up some awful intents? I'm not using any sort of NavigationStack here; that model doesn't fit my app. Any ideas? Thanks.

Hello, Please can you tell me how to create an array of dictionaries? This code below should create 4 dictionaries in an array, but I'm getting these errors: For line "var output = [id: "testID", name: "testName"]": cannot find 'name' in scope Type '(any AnyObject).Type' cannot conform to 'Hashable' For line "return output": Type '(any AnyObject).Type' cannot conform to 'Hashable' var quotes: [(id: String, name: String)] { var output = [[(id: String, name: String)]] () for i in 1...4 { var output = [id: "testID", name: "testName"] } return output }

I have c++ macOs app(Xcode +14) and I try to add call to swift code. I can't find any simple c++ xcodeproj call to swift code. I create new simple project and fail to build it with error when I try to include #include <SwiftMixTester/SwiftMixTester-Swift.h>: main.m:9:10: error: 'SwiftMixTester/SwiftMixTester-Swift.h' file not found (in target 'CppCallSwift' from project 'CppCallSwift') note: Did not find header 'SwiftMixTester-Swift.h' in framework 'SwiftMixTester' (loaded from '/Users/yanivsmacm4/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/CppCallSwift-exdxjvwdcczqntbkksebulvfdolq/Build/Products/Debug') .

I get many warnings like this when I build an old project. I asked AI chatbot which gave me several solutions, the recommended one is: var hashBag = [String: Int]() func updateHashBag() async { var tempHashBag = hashBag // make copy await withTaskGroup(of: Void.self) { group in group.addTask { tempHashBag["key1"] = 1 } group.addTask { tempHashBag["key2"] = 2 } } hashBag = tempHashBag // copy back? } My understanding is that in the task group, the concurrency engine ensures synchronized modifications on the temp copy in multiple tasks. I should not worry about this. My question is about performance. What if I want to put a lot of data into the bag? Does the compiler do some kind of magics to optimize low level memory allocations? For example, the temp copy actually is not a real copy, it is a special reference to the original hash bag; it is only grammar glue that I am modifying the copy.

In scope of one of our project we've faced an issue with constant crashes when integrating C++ library in Swift code using Swift/C++ interoperability. Investigating the root causes of the issue we've discovered that with new version of Swift bug was introduced. Long story short: for strings bigger than 27 symbols memory is feed incorrectly that causes the crashes. By creating this post I wanted to draw community's attention to the problem and promote it to be solved quicker as for now it is not addressed.

Using the DebugDescription macro to display an optional value produces a “String interpolation produces a debug description for an optional value” build warning. For example: @DebugDescription struct MyType: CustomDebugStringConvertible { let optionalValue: String? public var debugDescription: String { "Value: \(optionalValue)" } } The DebugDescription macro does not allow (it is an error) "Value: \(String(describing: optionalValue))" or "Value: \(optionalValue ?? "nil")" because “Only references to stored properties are allowed.” Is there a way to reconcile these? I have a build log full of these warnings, obscuring real issues.

A few questions. One, can I safely upgrade to my project to Swift 6.2 without having to require iOS 26+? Two, where do I actually make the upgrade. This is what I see in build settings: 6.2 is not available in the dropdown?

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?
