I'm seeing somewhat regular crash reports from my app which appear to be deep in the Swift libraries. They're happening in the same spot, so I'm apt to believe something is likely getting deallocated behind the scenes - but I don't really know how to guard against it. Here's the specific crash thread: 0 libsystem_kernel.dylib 0x00000001d51261dc __pthread_kill + 8 (:-1) 1 libsystem_pthread.dylib 0x000000020eaa8b40 pthread_kill + 268 (pthread.c:1721) 2 libsystem_c.dylib 0x000000018c5592d0 abort + 124 (abort.c:122) 3 libsystem_malloc.dylib 0x0000000194d14cfc malloc_vreport + 892 (malloc_printf.c:251) 4 libsystem_malloc.dylib 0x0000000194d14974 malloc_report + 64 (malloc_printf.c:290) 5 libsystem_malloc.dylib 0x0000000194d0e8b4 ___BUG_IN_CLIENT_OF_LIBMALLOC_POINTER_BEING_FREED_WAS_NOT_ALLOCATED + 32 (malloc_common.c:227) 6 Foundation 0x0000000183229f40 __DataStorage.__deallocating_deinit + 104 (Data.swift:563) 7 libswiftCore.dylib 0x0000000182f556c8 _swift_release_dealloc + 56 (HeapObject.cpp:847) 8 libswiftCore.dylib 0x0000000182f5663c bool swift::RefCounts<swift::RefCountBitsT<(swift::RefCountInlinedness)1>>::doDecrementSlow<(swift::PerformDeinit)1>(swift::RefCountBitsT<(swift::RefCountInlinedness)1>, unsigned int) + 152 (RefCount.h:1052) 9 TAKAware 0x000000010240c688 StreamParser.parseXml(dataStream:) + 1028 (StreamParser.swift:0) 10 TAKAware 0x000000010240cdb4 StreamParser.processXml(dataStream:forceArchive:) + 16 (StreamParser.swift:85) 11 TAKAware 0x000000010240cdb4 StreamParser.parseCoTStream(dataStream:forceArchive:) + 360 (StreamParser.swift:108) 12 TAKAware 0x000000010230ac3c closure #1 in UDPMessage.connect() + 252 (UDPMessage.swift:68) 13 Network 0x000000018506b68c closure #1 in NWConnectionGroup.setReceiveHandler(maximumMessageSize:rejectOversizedMessages:handler:) + 200 (NWConnectionGroup.swift:458) 14 Network 0x000000018506b720 thunk for @escaping @callee_guaranteed (@guaranteed OS_dispatch_data?, @guaranteed OS_nw_content_context, @unowned Bool) -> () + 92 (<compiler-generated>:0) 15 Network 0x0000000185185df8 invocation function for block in nw_connection_group_handle_incoming_packet(NWConcrete_nw_connection_group*, NSObject<OS_nw_endpoint>*, NSObject<OS_nw_endpoint>*, NSObject<OS_nw_interface>*, NSObje... + 112 (connection_group.cpp:1075) 16 libdispatch.dylib 0x000000018c4ad2b8 _dispatch_block_async_invoke2 + 148 (queue.c:574) 17 libdispatch.dylib 0x000000018c4b7584 _dispatch_client_callout + 16 (client_callout.mm:85) 18 libdispatch.dylib 0x000000018c4d325c _dispatch_queue_override_invoke.cold.3 + 32 (queue.c:5106) 19 libdispatch.dylib 0x000000018c4a21f8 _dispatch_queue_override_invoke + 848 (queue.c:5106) 20 libdispatch.dylib 0x000000018c4afdb0 _dispatch_root_queue_drain + 364 (queue.c:7342) 21 libdispatch.dylib 0x000000018c4b054c _dispatch_worker_thread2 + 156 (queue.c:7410) 22 libsystem_pthread.dylib 0x000000020eaa5624 _pthread_wqthread + 232 (pthread.c:2709) 23 libsystem_pthread.dylib 0x000000020eaa29f8 start_wqthread + 8 (:-1) Basically we're receiving a message via UDP that is an XML packet. We're parsing that packet using what I think it pretty straightforward code that looks like this: func parseXml(dataStream: Data?) -> Array<String> { var events: [String] = [] guard let data = dataStream else { return events } currentDataStream.append(data) var str = String(decoding: currentDataStream, as: UTF8.self) while str.contains(StreamParser.STREAM_DELIMTER) { let splitEvent = str.split(separator: StreamParser.STREAM_DELIMTER, maxSplits: 1) let cotEvent = splitEvent.first! var restOfString = "" if splitEvent.count > 1 { restOfString = String(splitEvent.last!) } events.append("\(cotEvent)\(StreamParser.STREAM_DELIMTER)") str = restOfString } currentDataStream = Data(str.utf8) return events } the intention is that the message may be broken across multiple packets, so we build them up here. Is there anything I can do to guard against these crashes?

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.

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 > Build Options > 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..

My framework has private Objective-C API that is only used within the framework. It should not be exposed in the public interface (so it shouldn't be imported in the umbrella header). To expose this API to Swift that's within the framework only the documentation seems to indicate that this needs to be imported in the umbrella header? Import Code Within a Framework Target To use the Objective-C declarations in files in the same framework target as your Swift code, configure an umbrella header as follows: 1.Under Build Settings, in Packaging, make sure the Defines Module setting for the framework target is set to Yes. 2.In the umbrella header, import every Objective-C header you want to expose to Swift. Swift sees every header you expose publicly in your umbrella header. The contents of the Objective-C files in that framework are automatically available from any Swift file within that framework target, with no import statements. Use classes and other declarations from your Objective-C code with the same Swift syntax you use for system classes. I would imagine that there must be a way to do this?

I have a transformation function that takes in data, executes some instructions, and returns an output. This function is dynamic and not shipped with the binary. Currently, I’m executing it using JavaScriptCore.JSContext, which works well, but the function itself is written in JavaScript. Is there a way to achieve something similar using Swift – such as executing a dynamic Swift script, either directly or through other means? I know this is possible on macOS, but I’m not sure about iOS. I’ve also heard that extensions might open up some possibilities here. Any insights or alternative approaches would be appreciated.

I have my project running perfectly fine on Xcode 16. However, in Xcode 26 it doesn't build due to an error that I do not understand. I have three files that pertain to this error: // FriendListResponse.swift import Foundation struct FriendListResponse: Decodable { var friendships: [Friendship] var collections: [FriendCollection] } // Friendship.swift import Foundation struct Friendship: Decodable { var createdAt: String var friendId: Int var friendUserId: Int // user ID of the friend var friendUsername: String var id: Int var tagNames: [String] } // FriendCollection.swift struct FriendCollection: Decodable { var id: Int var permalink: String var tagNames: [String] var title: String } On the first file, FriendListResponse.swift, I am the simple error message "circular reference." I do not understand how these self-contained structs could create a circular reference. Although I have other data types in my project, none of them are even referenced in these files except for Friendship and FriendCollection. The FriendListResponse is a struct that is created from JSON values that are fetched from an API. This is the function that fetches the JSON: public static func listFriends(username: String) async throws -> [Friendship] { let data = try await sendGETRequest( url: "people/\(username)/friends/list.json" ) print(String(data: data, encoding: .utf8)!) let decoder = JSONDecoder() decoder.keyDecodingStrategy = .convertFromSnakeCase let wrapper = try decoder.decode(FriendListResponse.self, from: data) return wrapper.friendships } // Note: the function sendGETRequest is just // a function that I have created that takes a set // of parameters and returns a data object // using the HTTP GET protocol. I don't think // that it is related to this issue. However, if you // think that it is, I can share the code for that. This error has also happened in a few other cases within contained networks of my data structure. I do not know why this error is only appearing once I launch Xcode 26 beta with my project files. I would think that this error also would appear in Xcode 16.4. Any help would be greatly appreciated in my process to compile my project on Xcode 26!

This is not a question but more of a hint where I was having trouble with. In my SwiftData App I wanted to move from Swift 5 to Swift 6, for that, as recommended, I stayed in Swift 5 language mode and set 'Strict Concurrency Checking' to 'Complete' within my build settings. It marked all the places where I was using predicates with the following warning: Type '' does not conform to the 'Sendable' protocol; this is an error in the Swift 6 language mode I had the same warnings for SortDescriptors. I spend quite some time searching the web and wrapping my head around how to solve that issue to be able to move to Swift 6. In the end I found this existing issue in the repository of the Swift Language https://github.com/swiftlang/swift/issues/68943. It says that this is not a warning that should be seen by the developer and in fact when turning Swift 6 language mode on those issues are not marked as errors. So if anyone is encountering this when trying to fix all issues while staying in Swift 5 language mode, ignore those, fix the other issues and turn on Swift 6 language mode and hopefully they are gone.

func textField( _ textField: UITextField, shouldChangeCharactersIn range: NSRange, replacementString string: String ) -> Bool { if let delegate = delegate, let shouldChangeCharactersIn = delegate.textField { return shouldChangeCharactersIn(textField, range, string) } return true } This is from an extension extension TextInput: UITextFieldDelegate, ObservableTextFieldDelegateProtocol { The delegate is already a UITextFieldDelegate, but when you click on the error, it returns 7 instances of: "Found this candidate in module 'UIKit' (UIKit.UITextFieldDelegate.textField)" This doesn't give an error in Xcode 16. Is this an Xcode 26 bug?

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)

Hi, I’m trying to use the new InlineArray type, but noticed that it is unfortunately only available on macOS 26 and not on macOS 15 and others. As this is quite an essential type, I was wondering if this is intended or will this change in later beta’s? Not having it available on older Darwin platforms would severily limit it’s usage in the coming years. Thanks!

I've been testing my open source libraries with Swift 6.2 and the new Default Actor Isolation concurrency build setting set to MainActor (with Complete strict concurrency turned on). My library Destinations uses protocols extensively, often applying conformance to foundational Swift protocols like Hashable and Identifiable. Many of these basic protocols are not flagged as running on the @MainActor in Beta 1, leading to situations like this: Given this example code: public protocol Contentable: Identifiable { var id: UUID { get } } final class ContentModel: Contentable { let id: UUID = UUID() } I get the warning: Multiline Conformance of 'ContentModel' to protocol 'Contentable' crosses into main actor-isolated code and can cause data races; this is an error in the Swift 6 language mode The fix it suggests is to put a @MainActor before the Contentable protocol declaration in ContentModel, which seems to be a new attribute configuration in Swift 6.2. This solves the warning, but would create a lot of extra noise across the codebase. Was it an oversight or a temporary omission that protocols like Hashable and Identifiable do not run on @MainActor by default, or is there some other reason they are excluded? Considering how often protocols in our code may conform to foundational protocols like this, it seems at odds to the MainActor mode of the Default Actor Isolation setting given that it was created to make concurrency easier and less boilerplate to implement.

Hey everyone, I have a problem with an app im creating. The code doesn't have any errors but the console has this that pops up: Snapshot request 0x1054191d0 complete with error: <NSError: 0x10541a970; domain: FBSSceneSnapshotErrorDomain; code: 4; "an unrelated condition or state was not satisfied"> { NSLocalizedDescription = an error occurred during a scene snapshotting operation; }

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: ****** strength level (0-4) ****** 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.

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?

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?

i am trying to build my code and have ran into this error. "Trailing closure passed to parameter of type 'DispatchWorkItem' that does not accept a closure" i have been trying to figure it out for so long, and even ai cant figure it out. is this a bug, or am i missing some obvious way to fix this ? func loadUser(uid: String, completion: (() -&gt; Void)? = nil) { db.collection("users").document(uid).getDocument { [weak self] snapshot, error in guard let data = snapshot?.data(), error == nil else { completion?(); return } DispatchQueue.main.async { self?.currentUser = User( username: data["username"] as?

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 ?

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!

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?

Is there any way that I can import a Java module for use from Swift?
