If I have an XCode project that generates a framework when built, then I've noticed that its possible to add new additional targets to the project of type app extension. However if I add some source code to an app extension and regenerate the framework, then that source code is not accessable from the resulting framework (i.e. if the framework is included into an app, then the app code doesn't have visibility of the code that was added to the extension in the framework). Is this something which is possible to achieve? Ideally I would like to package the main source code that constitutes the framework content, along with the source code for a few extensions into a single framework, so that the app(s) that use the framework can include the framework into their main app target and also include it in the app extension target. I noticed that if the scheme of the framework is changed to the extension before building, then the result is not a .framework file but a .appex file. For client apps of the framework, can they directly include/use that .appex file? If so how can that be achieved? Does

Hello Apple Developer Community, I'm experiencing an issue with localization in my Xcode project that has two build targets, "Build X" and "Build Y." Both targets are set up to support the same language, but they each have slightly different wording, which is why I've created separate Localizable.strings files for each build target. Here's an overview of my setup: Project Structure I have a Localizable folder with two subfolders: Localizable/OrdnerX/Localizable.strings (for Build X) Localizable/OrdnerY/Localizable.strings (for Build Y) Configuration In the File Inspector, I’ve assigned each Localizable.strings file to its corresponding build target: OrdnerX/Localizable.strings is linked to Build X OrdnerY/Localizable.strings is linked to Build Y Under Build Phases, I verified that each build target references the correct Localizable.strings file. The paths are all correctly set, so each target should know where to find its respective localization file. Problem When I build and run Build X, everything works perfectly. The app displays the correct localized strings from OrdnerX/Localizable.strings. However, when I switch to Build Y, the app fails to find the localized strings from OrdnerY/Localizable.strings, and I’m left with placeholder text instead. I’ve double-checked the configurations for both build targets multiple times, and they appear identical. The Localizable.strings files for both targets are configured in exactly the same way, but Build Y just doesn’t seem to recognize its assigned localization file. Has anyone encountered a similar issue, or can anyone suggest potential fixes? I’d appreciate any advice on what might be causing this discrepancy. Thank you in advance!

I've got a few years old app which was created using an Xcode template type of app. I'd like to split the model part of the code (model as in model-view-controller) out into a framework. Removed the view/controller source files to leave the model code is quick and easy, however the model code is large and complex with a couple of hundred of source files. Rather than create a new Xcode template type of framework and move the source files into there, is it possible to simply just change the template type of the existing project from app to framework?

I am currently developing on an Intel Mac and am thinking about switching to an Apple Silicon-equipped Mac soon. When I searched the web, I found that a very complicated migration process would be required, but what exactly would be required? Thank you for your response.

No luck with my first post in getting a response despite 24 views. Will try again. I am trying to build/run this main() function in C language. Keep getting build fail message. #include <stdio.h> #include <math.h> int main() { float a,b; printf("Enter value for A: "); scanf("%f" ,&a); printf("Enter value for B: "); scanf("%f" ,&b); printf("%f + %f = %f\n",a,b,a+b); printf("%f - %f = %f\n",a,b,a-b); printf("%f * %f = %f\n",a,b,a*b); printf("%f / %f = %f\n",a,b,a/b); printf("%f to the power of %f = %f\n",a,b,pow(a,b)); printf("The square root of %f is %f\n",a,sqrt(a)); printf("The square root of %f is %f\n",a,sqrt(b)); return(0); } ANY feedback appreciated on why Xcode does not work here. I am a beginning programmer. Thanks.

I am self-learning basic C programming and have installed Xcode v. 14.2 on MacOS Monterey v. 12.7.5. I cannot get any programs I write under a new project I created to build and run on Xcode.

I'm trying to add an iMessage extension to my app, and upon adding the iMessage App Icon set, I ran into an issue with one specific icon size: 1024x768px, aka 1x 1024x768pt. When I remove this one icon from the icon set, it compiles and runs fine, however I can't push it to the App Store as I get the error: "Asset validation failed. Missing Image Asset. Your app is missing the Large App Icon asset 'AppIcon' in 'Payload/Runner.app/PlugIns/MessagesExtension.appex'." I'm assuming this refers to 1024x768px, as this size placeholder appears upon adding a New Messages Extension Icon to my assets folder, and 1024x1024 is already included and compiles fine with it. However, when I add the 1024x768 icon, and try to run the app, I get the error: "Command CompileAssetCatalog failed with a nonzero exit code" The app icon's filename is correct, it is exactly 1024x768 px, and my contents.json correctly includes : { "filename" : "AppIcon_1024x768.png", "idiom" : "ios-marketing", "platform" : "ios", "scale" : "1x", "size" : "1024x768" } as is the same format for all of my other icons that work. Why am I running into this issue upon inclusion of this one required size? How do I fix it?

I have a macOS application built via command line (xcodebuild) using Xcode 16.1. Developed on ARM but end user is on Intel (same macOS 15.1). App crashed and they sent me a .IPS dump. From what MacGPT tells me: Reading an IPS (Incident Processing System) file from a macOS crash report in Xcode isn’t as straightforward as with iOS device logs. I can open the dump using Console. I see the IPS dump is partially symbolicated. Line in the dump says: Meteorologist 0x103e0348f 0x103d88000 + 504975 Referencing this article: Adding identifiable symbol names to a crash report | Apple Developer Documentation I run this command and see the same UUID for x86_64 as in the dump. dwarfdump --uuid /Users/ed/meteorologist/trunk/Build/Meteorologist.xcarchive/dSYMs/Meteorologist.app.dSYM/Contents/Resources/DWARF/Meteorologist I run this command: atos -arch x86_64 -o /Users/ed/meteorologist/trunk/Build/Meteorologist.xcarchive/dSYMs/Meteorologist.app.dSYM/Contents/Resources/DWARF/Meteorologist -l 0x103d88000 0x103e0348f And it says: fg: no current job Suggestions for what I’m missing?

I've just updated to macOS 15.2 Beta and Xcode 16.2 Beta and just noticed I can't build my visionOS app as before. I have a separate /Volumes/Development APFS volume for Xcode projects, plus utilising a Relative setting for DerivedData so that these are located in the projects' directories – in this case, subfolder on this volume mentioned. I just found that when attempting to build the app in either Xcode 16.1 or 16.2 Beta with visionOS 2.1 SDK, I'm getting a following error: Finished processSwiftFiles() with a failure 'You don’t have permission to save the file “CustomComponentUSDInitializers.usda” in the folder “RealityAssetsGenerated”.' Sandbox: realitytool(6216) deny(1) file-write-create /Volumes/Development/travel-visionos/DerivedData/Tripomatic/Build/Intermediates.noindex/RealityKitContent.build/Debug-xrsimulator/RealityKitContent_RealityKitContent.build/DerivedSources/RealityAssetsGenerated/CustomComponentUSDInitializers.usda.sb-02874eb3-PS4qfZ Failure creating schema - 'You don’t have permission to save the file “CustomComponentUSDInitializers.usda” in the folder “RealityAssetsGenerated”.' This for sure worked previously with 15.0/16.0 or 15.1/16.1 as I've even published the app to the App Store. It seems to be some shenanigans related to sandboxing &amp; permissions for Xcode tools which I can hardly work around. I have Xcode added to Developer Tools and Full disk access sections in Privacy &amp; Security, yet that doesn't really change anything in relation to this issue. When I move the project to a subfolder in my home directory, the build succeeds. The same applies to switching DerivedData setting to the default value to that DD are generated in ~/Library/Developer folder for all projects opened in Xcode. Thus, either macOS or Xcode now has an issue with running realitytool to generate files on my dedicated volume. Should I consider this Xcode or macOS Beta issue? Report it via Feedback Assistant maybe?

I upgraded Xcode to 16, my Mac to Sequoia and my iphone and iPad to IOS 18. My developer devices are my iPhone, my iPad, my Husband's iPad and iPhone, all running IOS 18. Before upgrading Xcode to 16 I could compile onto all of these devices with no difficulty. But now, Xcode 16 recognises and compiles to all of my developer devices except my iPhone. My Mac recognises my iPhone when I plug it into a USB-C port, but Xcode does not. Xcode does not even try to pair with it or let me try to add it as a device. I have tried switching off dev mode on the phone, switching it back on again, plugging and replugging, rebooting Xcode. But Xcode will not recognise my iPhone, which is a 13 mini. Any idea what to do? I plugged my iPhone into a usb port using a vanilla Apple lightning cable and typed this into Terminal: xcrun devicectl list devices then lists the following. And for info, MCW's iPad and MCW's iPhone are in Shanghai at the moment, I am in the UK.

When I was on the 15.1 developer beta, I downloaded the beta version of the SF Symbols app. It worked perfectly throughout the beta, but when 15.1 was released, I downloaded the stable version of SF Symbols as well and removed the beta version. However, now when it launches I am greeted by an alert titled "Fonts need by this application are missing." It goes on to say that fonts may not display properly... etc, but I haven't noticed any issues viewing any symbols I have looked up, and they seem to show up properly when I define them in Xcode. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the application, as well as following the advice in the alert by downloading "the latest fonts from the Apple Developer website." but the alert still shows up everytime I launch SF Symbols. Any one else experiencing this issue or know of a way to solve it? It's not that big of an issue, it's just one extra click after all, but in case it might be in the future, I just thought I'd check with others. Thanks!

When I try to delete an iPhone 16 Pro iOS 18.1 Simulator in XCode 16.1, I get an error message "“data” couldn’t be moved because you don’t have permission to access “Deleting-8366D3CC-37EC-49C0-8674-0599BCE1DA12”.". I had that same issue with iOS 18.0 Simulator but never with previous versions (17.5). Note that I'm stuck using the iOS 18.1 Simulator because iCloud synchronization is paused (potentially due to low data mode). And I cannot use iOS 18.0 Simulator as well because unit tests run hangs for some other mysterious reason. The fallback to iOS 17.5 Simulator is not satisfactory.

I have a MacMini M2 machine running Sequoia 15.1 OS. On this machine, I am running a Virtual Machine, utilizing the Virtualization.Framework, with the same OS version, 15.1.

While the initial login is successful, Xcode immediately displays the following error: Decoding Error. There was a failure decoding response: (HTTP 401, 60 bytes) The data couldn’t be read because it isn’t in the correct format. As a result, I cannot see any account information, teams, etc. A very similar bug has been reported at this issue - https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/759877, but there has been no progress or updates there. Is there any chance to fix this and get it working?
