I've got an app where I want to split its Model code into a framework (.xcframework and .framework for debugging) so that it can be used by more than one app. The code has dependencies on 3rd party code, which are installed via pods. During the conversion process I keep running into the same issue which manifests with all the 3rd party code - which is that the majority of its api can be used (something like 80-90%) but for the remainder there is a linker error at runtime showing undefined symbols. I have this problem with CocoaLumberjack,RealmSwift, PhoneNumberKit and more. Its very quick and easy to reproduce the issue with a minimal framework and minimal app, below I'll describe how a minimal setup using CocoaLumberjack reproduces the issue: From scratch, I use Xcode to create a framework project, run pod init, then modify the pod file to be: platform :ios, '16.0' workspace 'TheFramework' project 'TheFramework' target 'TheFramework' do use_frameworks! pod 'CocoaLumberjack/Swift', '3.8.5' end post_install do |installer| installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target| target.build_configurations.each do |config| config.build_settings['IPHONEOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET'] = '16.0' config.build_settings['BUILD_LIBRARY_FOR_DISTRIBUTION'] = 'YES' end end end Then I add source code: import Foundation import CocoaLumberjack public class AClassInTheFramework { public class func aMethod() { let consoleLogger = DDOSLogger.sharedInstance DDLog.add(consoleLogger, with: .debug) DDLogDebug("Some logging") } } Within the Xcode project, Build Libraries for Distribution is set to Yes, I also add that line to the pod file in case CocoaLumberjack isn't set similarly. In the Framework's Xcode General section, Frameworks and Libraries contains Pods_TheFramework.framework set to Do Not Embed. In the Build Phases section, in the Link Binary with Libraries section, Pods_TheFramework.framework is set to required. Next I create an Xcode app template, run pod install, and edit the app pod file to be: platform :ios, '16.0' workspace 'AppUsingFramework' project 'AppUsingFramework' target 'AppUsingFramework' do use_frameworks! pod 'CocoaLumberjack/Swift', '3.8.5' end post_install do |installer| installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target| target.build_configurations.each do |config| config.build_settings['IPHONEOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET'] = '16.0' end end end I build the framework, and drag and drop it into the app. I add the following code to the app's delegate: import TheFramework ... AClassInTheFramework.aMethod() The App's target has the following linkage settings: When I build and run the app, there is the following error: If I change the source code in the framework to this: public class AClassInTheFramework { public class func aMethod() { let consoleLogger = DDOSLogger.sharedInstance DDLog.add(consoleLogger, with: .debug) // DDLogDebug("Some logging") } } Then there is no error and the code runs successfully. This illustrates the problem I've encountered with all the nested frameworks - in this particular case calls to DDLog.add() don't result in an error but calls to DDlogDebug() do, and that has been mirrored with other nested frameworks (for example with Realm, opening a database, adding, finding,retrieving an item all works without a problem, however attempting to use Realm's Results<> API results in a similar symbol not found error). Additionally note that the identical CocoaLumberjack code can run fine when used directly from within the app, i.e., if I add the following code to the app: import CocoaLumberjack func useCocoaLumberjackDirectlyFromWithinApp() { let consoleLogger = DDOSLogger.sharedInstance DDLog.add(consoleLogger, with: .debug) DDLogDebug("Some logging") } useCocoaLumberjackDirectlyFromWithinApp() Then it runs, i.e. DDLogDebug() can be successfully called from within the app, its only when its called via the framework that the error occurs. Why might I be encountering these issues? I'd have thought either I'd be able to use 100% of the nested framework's public api, or 0% of it (is something is not configured correct), not ~80% which is what I am encountering. Any ideas? TIA

My project is using Fastlane 2.226.0. After converted groups to folders on XCode 16, I got an error when executed below function in Fastfile: get_version_number(xcodeproj: "MyProject.xcodeproj", target: "MyProject") Below is the error message output after I ran fastlane: Unable to find XCode build setting: MARKETING_VERSION

I'm trying to add an Enterprise Apple account with the username and password of my developer account, which has worked once before. Now its giving me the following error: "There was an error while trying to log in: No trusted devices or trusted phone numbers are configured for this account." which doesn't make sense because the 2-Factor Auth works when I login to the website. What am I missing? I think the only thing different is I'm using a different Macbook, but should that make a difference? Has anyone else had this error from Visual Studio?

My application is in flightTest mode. I received my first two crash reports in XCODE /Organizer. The context is well described, and I was able to isolate the locations where very serious errors occurred. My application is connected. I'm missing one piece of data in this crash report: the time of the crash. This will help me see what (in my case) static data was being read on the data server at that time. This will help me investigate. Is it possible to obtain this information?

I've discovered what appears to be a system-level memory leak when pressing any key in Swift UI projects. This issue occurs even in a completely empty SwiftUI project with no custom code or event handlers. When monitoring with Instruments' Leaks tool, I observe multiple memory leaks each time any key is pressed. These leaks consist primarily of: NSExtraData objects (240 bytes each) NSMenuItem objects (112 bytes each) Other AppKit and Foundation objects Has anyone else encountered this issue? How can I fix this behavior? While the leaks are small (about 5-6KB per keypress), they could potentially accumulate in applications where keyboard input is frequent.

The app I'm working on has iOS 16.0 as target. Recently Live Activities support was added, but then it started crashing when running on iOS 16.0 devices. After some investigation, I've found that the culprit was the presence of NSUserActivityTypeLiveActivity and WidgetCenter.UserInfoKey.activityID, even though they were inside an @available(iOS 17.2, *) block. If I comment these two variables, the app work as expected. I've also tried adding #if canImport(ActivityKit) around the code, but without success. But if the @available isn't working, how can I prevent this? It looks like a bug, since the documentation says that NSUserActivityTypeLiveActivity is supported but iOS 14.0+, but I'm pretty sure it was introduced on 16.1. This is the only output I get with the crash: dyld[66888]: Symbol not found: _$s9WidgetKit0A6CenterC11UserInfoKeyV10activityIDSSvgZ Referenced from: <D6EFF120-2681-34C1-B261-8F3F7B388238> /Users/<redacted>/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices/8B5B4DC9-3D54-4C91-8C88-E705E851CA0F/data/Containers/Bundle/Application/DB6671FF-CB07-4570-BD63-C851D94FAF29/<redacted>.app/<redacted>.debug.dylib Expected in: <C5E72BB5-533F-3658-A987-E849888F4DFC> /Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Volumes/iOS_20A360/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Profiles/Runtimes/iOS 16.0.simruntime/Contents/Resources/RuntimeRoot/System/Library/Frameworks/WidgetKit.framework/WidgetKit

I implemented the cloudkit function, where users can connect with each other. The problem is, that if User A is doing a friend request and User B is accepting the request. The friend entry is correct visible for User B but not for User A. I can see in cloud kit that after the accepted request, the friend connection is set up correctly, also with the correct userID, but it not showing up for User A (the one that send the request) It's in the public database. In this view you sign in using Apple Sign-In and create a specific user ID. Then you can access a global leaderboard to compare with all signed-in users. Additionaly, there’s a friend tab where you can search for and type in a specific user ID. The target user sees the friend request, can accept it, and then the accepted friend appears in their friend list. However, the original requester doesn’t see the connection after acceptance even though CloudKit shows the records Add comment. I've also tried to add a placeholder in for User A, that e.g he send the request and then has a placeholder where it says e.g pending request to User B. After User B accepted the request, the placeholder will go away and no friend connection is displayed, very strange.

I have been using Xcode 16.2 for a long time. I downloaded it from the developer site. I recently downloaded Xcode 16.3. I was offline on an airplane and I got an error authenticating my account. Since then, I have not been able to sign my apps. I was able to create a new app that worked but in my effort to resolve the problem, I deleted my account and now I cannot add it back. I was getting a "bad URL" error. Now I'm getting "Could not connect to the server." I sent an email to Apple Dev Support and they told me to download Xcode from the App Store. I did that and it gave me the same error. Is anyone else having this problem? If Apple Dev Support cannot resolve it, I don't know how I am going to.

If I install RealmSwift into an ios app using SPM, I have no problems. However if I install it into an ios framework, then when building there is this error: error: missing required modules: 'Realm.Private', 'Realm', 'Realm.Swift' I have discovered that if I change the import statement from: import RealmSwift to private import RealmSwift then doing that makes this build error goes away (but doing that isn't a feasible workaround as I would like to publicly export classes stored in Realm from the framework). There's no point in posting issues with Realm on their support board as its being deprecated and its tumble weeds on their forum. But I would be very interested in hearing from the Apple expects explanation or speculation on: why is importing the same framework via SPM into a framework xcode project resulting in different behavior then when importing it into an app? why would changing import to private import make the build error go away? TIA

I'm trying to rewrite an old AppleScript mail rule that I used extensively as a Mail extension using the MailKit framework and I've run into an issue. Previously, when developing the script, it was possible to debug it by selecting the message I wanted it applied to and choosing the Mail.app menu item "Message/Apply Rules" This would re-execute my script and I could iterate over it as many times as I liked while developing. I haven't found any great way of doing this for my extension with a MEMessageActionHandler. The closest I've found is to forward the message to myself and wait for it to come back in again over the internet, at which point the extension would get executed again. Needless to say, this makes debugging my MEMessageAction handler much slower. I've tried a number of things in Mail.app to try and get it to re-execute my extension with a particular message without any luck. Does anyone know of a good process for debugging a MEMessageActionHandler that doesn't involve forwarding the message to myself over and over and waiting for it to come in each time?

If you have two video segments, one HDR and one SDR, next to one another in a composition, the SDR one appears dark, since its max luminance will be lower than the max luminance of the HDR clip. iMovie handles this well by (reverse) tone mapping the SDR content to make it look HDR in an HDR composition. This is what I want to achieve. I've looked into algorithms to do this, and the best that I can find is the conversion from RGB to YCbCr described in Table 4 of BT.2020, followed by conversion method A (Section 4.2, table 4) of BT.2446-1. I have these implemented in a Core Image kernel, available at this repo. The issue that I'm seeing is that the colors are still much too hot, and while there are frames that appear close to properly tone mapped, it doesn't come close to the accuracy of iMovie's approach. If someone is an expert in colorimetry, etc., I'd really appreciate a breakdown of what I'm doing wrong here. To be specific: Assuming non-constant luminance for the YCbCr conversion Using a Metal Core Image kernel for the actual tone mapping The video composition uses Core Image filters directly The video composition is using BT.2020 colorimetry and the PQ transfer function. Below is a comparison of two screenshots, one using an unaltered HDR asset, and the other using the same asset transcoded to SDR with QuickTime, and reverse tone mapped to HDR for playback. Is there something I'm missing?

Hello guys, I have probleme with the lib react tinode on ios , someone can help m on it plz ?

I posted a question 7 days ago and now it looks like I can't edit or delete it.

Swift Package: I have an old objc library, that is added as XCFramework to swift package as a binary target. targets: [ .target( name: "CoreServices", dependencies: ["OldContainer"], path: "CoreServices" ), .binaryTarget( name: "OldContainer", path: "Frameworks/OldContainer.xcframework" ), ] This serves the purpose, it builds fine and able to run on simulator. However this framework is breaking the Xcode previews.

Or Am I blocked until the library is converted into swift ?

I cannot believe how slow, opaque, and frustrating the Apple Developer enrollment process has become. I have been waiting for over a month, and every single step has been a nightmare. I have paid twice, the latest over a week ago, and still no activation. I have sent over 10 emails to support, and either I get no response or the same useless generic reply that does nothing to resolve the issue. I post here on the forum, and Apple remains completely silent. How can a company like Apple treat its developer partners this way? Google and Meta finalize these processes in 48 hours, while here, every step feels like a black hole of delays and excuses. This situation is beyond unacceptable. If Apple wants serious developers on its platform, it needs to fix this broken system. Has anyone else been stuck in this endless loop? What solutions exist, other than waiting forever? case (#102554666707) case [20000095668276] #AppleFail #DeveloperSupport #Frustrated

I'm encountering an issue while trying to build my iOS app in Xcode for the simulator. Issue: Xcode Version: 15.x macOS Version: 14.x (Sonoma) Simulator: iPhone 16 Pro Error Message: Command ClangStatCache failed with a nonzero exit code Steps Taken: Cleaned build folder (Shift + Cmd + K) Deleted DerivedData (rm -rf ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData) Updated Xcode and checked iOS SDK updates Disabled Clang Static Analyzer Cache None of these steps resolved the issue. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone, I’m facing a major roadblock with my family location tracking app, and I need some advice or guidance from the community. Background Back in 2021, I implemented NSE filtering entitlement to send location-based notifications and retrieve the device's location in return (as suggested by Apple’s technical code support). Over time, I built my app around this entitlement, adding many features that depend on it. When Location Push Service Extension was introduced for iOS 15+, I adapted accordingly: NSE filtering was used for devices below iOS 15 Location Push Service Extension was used for iOS 15+ NSE filtering also played a crucial role in: ✅ Accepting/rejecting location-based notifications ✅ Checking device settings & location permissions (since location push won’t work without proper permissions) The Issue In November 2024, I created a new developer account to change my business entity. Since then, I’ve been requesting the NSE entitlement repeatedly for four months, but Apple keeps rejecting it. Meanwhile, they approved the Location Push Entitlement, but without NSE filtering, I’m forced to rewrite a huge part of my app’s core functionality. I’ve sent multiple emails explaining my use case, but I keep getting rejected without any clear explanation or workaround. My Ask Has anyone faced a similar issue with NSE entitlement? Are there any alternative approaches to achieve the same functionality? Any advice on how to escalate this to Apple or get proper feedback on why it's being rejected? I’ve invested years into this app, and a forced rewrite would take months. Any help, insights, or contacts who could assist would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance! 🙏

I have a iOS app using a gobind xcframework library. All went well when using Xcode 15.0 (15A240d), but failed on Xcode 16.2 (16C5032a). It’s confirmed the failure is from only Xcode version difference, all others like source code, lib binary, physical test iPhone all keeping the exact same. After digging, the root comes from golang os.Executable() call (https://pkg.go.dev/os#Executable), which is used in xcframework library. Using Xcode 15.0, os.Executable() returns “/var/containers/Bundle/Application/E80602C7-EFFB-4F1B-9FF8-FBA0E7E3DA76/Runner.app/Runner” as normal. But with Xcode 16.2, os.Executable() panic with err “cannot find executable path”. I’ve checked Xcode&SDK version change history, couldn’t find any clue like relevant permissions restrictions stuff. Could someone please share a hint? Thanks .
