Problem getting Expectation objects (AI slop)
This is from an Xcode generated file. var values: [String] = [] let exp = Expectation() let c = pub.filter { $0 != nil }.map { $0! }.sink( The second line gives an error: "'Expectation' cannot be constructed because it has no accessible initializers". My best guess that Expectation objects come from some other Apple Swift Testing function, but I don't know where.

Add static c library to xcode/swift
Hi, I want to build an ios app that uses static c libraries. For reference, i did the following as a test: Compiled a simple c date and time program with clang -c -arch arm64 -sysroot <iPhoneOSSDK_path> date.c -o date_arm64.o Created the static lib ar rcs libdatetime_arm64.a date_arm64.o Added the lib in my Xcode project. Added the (.a) file in Build Rules -> Link Binary With Libraries Included the (.a) and (.h) file path in Build Settings -> Search Paths -> Header and Library Search Path Created a Bridging-Header.h file where I added #import "date.h" In my App.swift file, I called the function for getting the date and time let dateTimeStr = String(cString: get_current_datetime()) print("Current Date and Time: \(dateTimeStr)") After doing all the steps above, I am met with the error - Cannot find 'get_current_datetime' in scope Is there any other method to use static c libraries in xcode?

On Demand Resources as Legacy Technology
I read on this documentation : https://developer.apple.com/help/app-store-connect/reference/app-uploads/on-demand-resources-size-limits that On Demand Resources a legacy technology. Does this mean ODR will be deprecated? If so, when will it officially take effect? Our application is planning to use it, so we need more information to support our decision.

Issue with Latest Commands Lines Tools 16.3 Update
After the Update of Latest Command Line Tools 16.3 I am facing issue to compile C++ programs. Like it is giving some kind of library error in the MACOSX15.sdk file and this is the error. In file included from /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX15.sdk/usr/include/mach/machine/_structs.h:35, from /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX15.sdk/usr/include/arm/_mcontext.h:36, from /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX15.sdk/usr/include/machine/_mcontext.h:34, from /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX15.sdk/usr/include/sys/signal.h:146, from /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX15.sdk/usr/include/sys/wait.h:109, from /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX15.sdk/usr/include/_stdlib.h:70, from /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX15.sdk/usr/include/stdlib.h:58, from /opt/homebrew/Cellar/gcc/14.2.0_1/include/c++/14/cstdlib:79, from /opt/homebrew/Cellar/gcc/14.2.0_1/include/c++/14/stdlib.h:36, from /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX15.sdk/usr/include/assert.h:44, from /opt/homebrew/Cellar/gcc/14.2.0_1/include/c++/14/cassert:44, from /opt/homebrew/Cellar/gcc/14.2.0_1/include/c++/14/aarch64-apple-darwin24/bits/stdc++.h:33, from 1.cpp:1: /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX15.sdk/usr/include/mach/arm/_structs.h:627:35: error: expected primary-expression before 'unsigned' 627 | } __attribute__((aligned(_Alignof(unsigned int)))); | ^~~~~~~~ /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX15.sdk/usr/include/mach/arm/_structs.h:627:26: error: '_Alignof' was not declared in this scope 627 | } __attribute__((aligned(_Alignof(unsigned int)))); | ^~~~~~~~ /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX15.sdk/usr/include/mach/arm/_structs.h:633:35: error: expected primary-expression before 'unsigned' 633 | } __attribute__((aligned(_Alignof(unsigned int)))); | ^~~~~~~~ /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX15.sdk/usr/include/mach/arm/_structs.h:633:26: error: '_Alignof' was not declared in this scope 633 | } __attribute__((aligned(_Alignof(unsigned int)))); | ^~~~~~~~ /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX15.sdk/usr/include/mach/arm/_structs.h:639:35: error: expected primary-expression before 'unsigned' 639 | } __attribute__((aligned(_Alignof(unsigned int)))); | ^~~~~~~~ /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX15.sdk/usr/include/mach/arm/_structs.h:639:26: error: '_Alignof' was not declared in this scope 639 | } __attribute__((aligned(_Alignof(unsigned int)))); | ^~~~~~~~ /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX15.sdk/usr/include/mach/arm/_structs.h:645:35: error: expected primary-expression before 'unsigned' 645 | } __attribute__((aligned(_Alignof(unsigned int)))); | ^~~~~~~~ /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX15.sdk/usr/include/mach/arm/_structs.h:645:26: error: '_Alignof' was not declared in this scope 645 | } __attribute__((aligned(_Alignof(unsigned int)))); But after downgrading the version to 16.2 it works fine. I can't understand that it's their any issue with Command Line Tools 16.3??

iOS 26 Download Link is Broken
I'm trying to download the iOS 26 restore image for my iPhone 14 Pro Max, which is my test device. However, when I attempted to install it directly via the over-the-air (OTA) update, the iPhone rebooted to the iOS 26 "Welcome" screen, but with no touch functionality—the screen was completely unresponsive. I restored the device back to iOS 18.5 and tried the OTA update again, but once more, the touch screen stopped working upon completion. Now, I am trying to download the iOS 26 restore image from the official developer page (https://developer.apple.com/download/#ios-restore-images-ipad-new) to install it manually using my Mac. However, I've run into a problem with the download links: The link for the iPhone 14 Pro Max (iOS 26) restore image actually downloads the iPhone 14 Pro (iOS 18.5) image. Conversely, the link for the iPhone 14 Pro seems to provide the correct iPhone 14 Pro Max (iOS 26) image. The issue is that when I try to restore my iPhone using this seemingly correct file, I receive an error that the firmware file is not valid or compatible. I suspect it's not being properly signed by Apple for my device during the restore process. Does anyone have the correct, official download link for the iOS 26 restore image for the iPhone 14 Pro Max? How can I fix these errors?

Testing Family Controls & Multicast Networking APIs - Educational Use Without Paid Developer Account?
Hi Apple Engineers and fellow developers, I'm a student developer working on an educational focus management app that helps users hide distracting apps during study sessions. The app consists of: macOS app: Simple "Hide apps" button that triggers app hidding sessions iOS app: Uses Screen Time API to temporarily hide selected apps from home screen Communication: Bonjour networking between Mac and iPhone for session coordination The Challenge My app requires two entitlements that aren't available with Personal Developer Teams: com.apple.developer.family-controls (for Screen Time API) com.apple.developer.networking.multicast (for Bonjour device discovery) Current Error Messages text Cannot create a iOS App Development provisioning profile for "focuser.focuser-app". Personal development teams, including "My Name", do not support the Family Controls (Development) capability. Provisioning profile doesn't include the com.apple.developer.family-controls and com.apple.developer.networking.multicast entitlements. My Question for Apple Engineers Is there any legitimate way to test these privacy-sensitive APIs on my own devices for educational/learning purposes without purchasing the $99/year Apple Developer Program membership? I understand the security reasons behind these restrictions, but as a student just learning iOS development, it creates a significant barrier to experimenting with these technologies.

Background Assets Directory Collision
Hello, I'm trying to use multiple Background Assets Packs to host map tiles. This is problematic for a few reasons. MKTileOverlay requires a method that returns a URL. AssetPackManager.shared.url() throws, but it's unrelated to the url. It will return a URL even if it points to nothing. There's no name-spacing. Everything appears to be flattened. (See Error below) Simultaneously, this also is not the case as the documentation states: if there’s a path collision across multiple asset packs, then it’s undefined from which asset pack an individual file will be resolved. AssetPackManager.shared.url() doesn't have an optional parameter to explicitly declare the asset pack you want to access, like AssetPackManager.shared.contents(at: FilePath) does For example, I have multiple different tiles I'm trying to overlay for z: 10, x: 239, and y: 414. Foo/10/239/414.png Bar/10/239/414.png And even when explicitly stating the fold directory, it appears that the assets are flattened down. As I'm receiving this error. The URL for “Foo/10/239/414.png” couldn’t be retrieved: “414.png” couldn’t be copied to “239” because an item with the same name already exists.

Xcode Preview Crashes: "xcpreviewagent crashed because Alamofire.framework is missing"
Question: I have created a workspace containing a SwiftUI app and two frameworks: B Framework: Handles UI components C Framework: Handles service classes I added a Podfile to manage dependencies. My Podfile is structured as follows: inhibit_all_warnings! workspace 'ABC.xcworkspace' def shared_pods # Shared pods here pod 'Alamofire' end target 'A' do use_frameworks! project 'A/A.xcodeproj' shared_pods end target 'B' do use_frameworks! project 'B/B.xcodeproj' shared_pods end target 'C' do use_frameworks! project 'C/C.xcodeproj' shared_pods end post_install do |installer| installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target| target.build_configurations.each do |config| config.build_settings['IPHONEOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET'] = '13.0' end end end After installing pods and building the project, everything works fine except for Xcode’s SwiftUI Preview, which crashes with the following error: xcpreviewagent crashed because Alamofire.framework is missing Question: How can I resolve this issue and make SwiftUI Previews work without Xcode crashing?

Is Apple reading reports in the new Feedback Assistant?
Dear Apple,I'm an iOS developer and provided feedback in the good old online bug tracker for many years.Decent conversations with Apple egnineers often resulted in bug fixes or updated documentation.The fact that my contributions helped to improve the products was rewarding.So I kept adding reports in the new Feedback Assistant app in macOS Catalina.But ever since (September 2019) I never ever got any response on any ticket.1 month ago I even added a report if Apple even read my reports. Again, no response ever since.So my question on this forum: Is Apple actually reading reports in the new Feedback Assistant?This can either be answered by Apple, or by other Developers that hopefully did response feedback from Apple. Or did not.Best regards,Martijn

Can't download 15.4 beta 1
Hi. I have three disk partitions on my MacBook Air M1. The one with Monterey, the one with Sonoma, and the one with Sequoia (15.3.1 in particular). When I try to download the 15.4 Beta from software update in settings, everything would go "fine" - the download process is being completed, the computer says it's going to restart in 60seconds, the countdown begins, etc. However, when restarting several times, I am being logged in once again into previous macOS (15.3.1) version, with a kernel panic report. I had the same panic on macOS 15.3 when attempting to download 15.4 Beta. I've upgraded my macOS to 15.3.1, as I thought I'd need the very last available version of regular macOS to participate in the newest beta. However, the panic occurs, pointing to some t8020dart.c file. I don't even theoretically know what is this and couldn't find any reference to that C file. Attaching a part of panic report: panic(cpu 3 caller 0x0): t8020dart 0xfffffdf02c980000 (dart-disp0): Can't ignore lock validation @t8020dart.c:535 Debugger message: panic Memory ID: 0xff OS release type: Not set yet OS version: Not set yet Kernel version: Darwin Kernel Version 24.4.0: Sat Feb 15 22:43:38 PST 2025; root:xnu-11417.100.533.501.4~3/RELEASE_ARM64_T8103 Fileset Kernelcache UUID: 232D67A6D42C66E14780A24B3C0AE05D Kernel UUID: F2602757-A486-30A9-8D8E-714224E5FE4A Boot session UUID: 575CD5EA-6898-47ED-9AEC-05E318135695 iBoot version: iBoot-11881.100.964.0.1 iBoot Stage 2 version: iBoot-11881.100.964.0.1 secure boot?: YES roots installed: 0 Paniclog version: 14 KernelCache slide: 0x00000000181d8000 KernelCache base: 0xfffffe001f1dc000 Kernel slide: 0x00000000181e0000 Kernel text base: 0xfffffe001f1e4000 Kernel text exec slide: 0x00000000198d0000 Kernel text exec base: 0xfffffe00208d4000 mach_absolute_time: 0x85b39c4 Epoch Time: sec usec Boot : 0x00000000 0x00000000 Sleep : 0x00000000 0x00000000 Wake : 0x00000000 0x00000000 Calendar: 0x00000000 0x00000000 Zone info: Zone map: 0xfffffe120c000000 - 0xfffffe380c000000 .

Can't install iOS 26.0 beta through xcodes or xcodebuild
I need to automate updating to latest iOS betas as part of my ci script, but I can't get it to install iOS 26.0 beta for the life of me, using xcodes or xcodebuild. I can see the version listed using xcodes runtimes --include-betas, and I tried sudo xcodes runtimes install "iOS 26.0-beta1", but I would get the error Downloading Runtime iOS 26.0-beta1: 0% Error: ProcessExecutionError()\ I also tried xcodebuild -downloadPlatform iOS -buildVersion 23A5260l, where I found the specific build id on apples dev images website. But I would get the error iOS 23A5260l is not available for download. Specific version download failed, trying downloadPlatform ios latest... And similar error for trying xcodebuild -downloadPlatform iOS -buildVersion 26.0 or other version ids I found online. But this command would work for any other versions and betas listed on the website. I was able to install iOS 26.0 through xcodebuild -downloadPlatform iOS, which automatically installed it for me, but this is unideal for my situation, as I want to control which betas to install instead of just the latest one (like iOS 18.6 beta that just came out). Is anyone else also struggling with these errors? xcodes version 1.6.2 Xcode version 26.0 Beta (installed and selected through xcode)

Is the new iPadOS/macOS 26 help icon available in SF Symbols?
Under macOS 26 and iPadOS, the Help menu in many cases has a menu item for "App Help". This item has the following icon: I need to use this in my own app. I am unable to find this icon in SF Symbols 7 beta. I've scanned all of the icons under "What's New". I've searched for "help", "light", and "bulb" and this icon does not appear. Does anyone know if it's even a new SF Symbol? Or does anyone know of a way to use this icon?

How do I determine whether a framework contains bitcode?
Hi there I've recently had my upload rejected in Xcode Organizer as a result of one of the frameworks we use containing bitcode. Error: [ContentDelivery.Uploader.XXXXXXXXXX] Validation failed (409) Invalid Executable. The executable 'Sam.app/Frameworks/Foo.framework/Foo' contains bitcode. Is there an accurate way to determine whether an .xcframework contains bitcode ahead of time without using Xcode Organiser? My current methodology is below, please can I get some confirmation that this is accurate, or suggest a more efficient approach? I have concerns about my approach and whether it throws false positives for empty bitcode markers. 1. get original framework size 2. run xcrun bitcode_strip -r framework_path -o temp 3. get new framework size 4. if new size is smaller than original, then it contains bitcode Thanks for the help, Sam
