Hello there, i would like to ask a question related xcode build confinguration.
So i have create a Common.framework that i used in other project, because of the .framework file is quite large then i want to generate Common.framework but with Generate Debug Symbols is NO, and the result Common.framework size is reduced
The question is there any negative impact that will happen to my app that use Common.framework?
The “Get Started with Apps” in Playgrounds looks great but it won’t allow me to advance to the next activity. It seems to think that my solution is incorrect, but what I did matches the solution provided in the “hint.” This could be corrected by either allowing for more variety in the responses, or by allowing the user to advance to the next activity regardless of whether the response they provided was correct.
Hi,
My client has already developed an ios app and they need an enterprise account to publish the app. What are the procedures to create enterprise account?
Hello, recently I've received such notice of termination. Right after they've reviewed and approved my app to the store.
Pursuant to Section 3.2(f) of the ADP Agreement, you agreed that you would not “commit any act intended to interfere with the Apple Software or Services, the intent of this Agreement, or Apple’s business practices including, but not limited to, taking actions that may hinder the performance or intended use of the App Store, Custom App Distribution, or the Program.” Apple has good reason to believe that you violated this Section due to documented indications of fraudulent conduct associated with your account.
Have you encountered this, and did you manage to get an answer or resolve the situation?
I've already appealed and am waiting for a review.
The MAC device is a device that has been manually added to the Apple Business Manager.
DEP profiles are normally installed in both iOS and iPadOS.
Profile descript error occurs only when attempting DEP of MacOS.
(If you look at the picture, a decryption error occurs in the remote device registration step.)
I asked Apple's customer center about this problem,
and it is said that it is caused by the lack of a key called "automatic registration on the MDM server"
The key cannot be found in the Apple official document related to the profile below.

}
Because it uses the same profile structure, it is not understood that iOS/iPadOS operates normally and errors occur only in MacOS.
If there is anything that can help me, please let me know.
Thank you.
When I try to build my iOS app using Xcode Cloud, it encounters an error when trying to resolve packages:
an out-of-date resolved file was detected at [path to package.resolved], which is not allowed when automatic dependency resolution is disabled; please make sure to update the file to reflect the changes in dependencies
Looking at my package.resolved file, it all seems to be in order.
What can I do to fix it?

Hi,
I have this error:
Provisioning profile "iOS Team Provisioning Profile: com.Mcrich23.Pickt" doesn't include the com.apple.runningboard.assertions.webkit entitlement
However, I can't add this entitlement because it pretty much does not exist. Any ideas?
I see from the WWDC video that it's possible to use secrets, like an API_KEY variable, when running Xcode Cloud builds.
How are these variables accessed from code? Is it something like this?
ProcessInfo.processInfo.environment["API_KEY"]
If so, how are we supposed to run the tests locally? Is the idea that every developer creates their own non-shared schemes and adds all secret environment variables to that scheme?
When trying to profile any process with the Instruments CPU Profiler I get this message:
(Before run started) No allocated PMI record.
Not sure what to do here. I tried other instruments like time profile and that works fine so not sure what to do here... Didn't find any people having similar issues when googling so I'm hoping someone here can help me out.
Im using a m1 max 14 inch macbook pro with macOS 12.3 and instruments 13.0 (13A1030d)
Hello!
I am struggling with the most basic things :-(
I created a Swift Package with the wizard and left it basically untouched, only added a func:
public struct TestPackage {
public init() {
}
public static func hello()
{
print("Hello, World!")
}
}
It just build fine.
Now I created a second project, this time a SpriteKit iOS app.
In the file list on the left, right-clicked on "Packages" -> "Add Packages ..." -> "Add Local" and selected the root directory of TestPackage (containing the Package.swift)
The Package now correctly appears in the "Packages" folder.
Opening a random Swift file in said SpriteKit iOS app, I expect to be able to
import TestPackage
But it tells me "No such module TestPackage".
Searching the internet, I somewhere read that I have to add the package also to the "Frameworks, Libraries and Embedded Content" section in the project's target settings, but I can't.
Hitting the "+" button there does not give me my library in the list of suggested libraries. Via "Add Other" -> "Add package dependency" -> "Add Local ..." I can again select the root directory of my library, but other than showing up twice in the left-side folder view (and not in said Frameworks, Libraries and Embedded content", I have no luck in importing it to my code.
What am I doing wrong?
I'm trying to make my GameOverScene load when I supposedly "die" but all i get in the editor is signal SIGABRT. Here is some code for it.
if self.livesArray.count == 0 { let gameOver = SKScene(fileNamed: "GameOverScene") as! GameOverScene //This line causes SIGABRT gameOver.score = self.score self.view?.presentScene(gameOver)}
Please can someone help me? Also i dont know where to find the debugger :P
I'm trying to debug a couple of crash reports for a Mac Catalyst app and seem to be unable to symbolicate my crash reports. In the Xcode Organizer, I see unsymbolicated lines for my app, despite having the original archive for the build in question. A search for the relevant dSYM (using the process from https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode/adding-identifiable-symbol-names-to-a-crash-report#Locate-a-dSYM-Using-Spotlight) yields no results.
Unlike iOS builds, the "Download dSYMs" button isn't present in the organizer, nor is the option to download dSYMs from App Store Connect. I assume this is because macOS apps don't use bitcode.
The app's Debug Information Format is set to DWARF with dSYM File.
Has anyone else run into this issue? Any ideas about how I can symbolicate the crash logs?
Hi,
This topic is about Workgroups.
I create child processes and I'd like to communicate a os_workgroup_t to my child process so they can join the work group as well.
As far as I understand, the os_workgroup_t value is local to the process.
I've found that one can use os_workgroup_copy_port() and os_workgroup_create_with_port(), but I'm not familiar at all with ports and I wonder what would be the minimal effort to achieve that.
Thank you very much!
Alex
Hello.
I'm trying to make the ODR experience as seamless as possible while reducing the app bundle size same time. According to the documentation, the files associated with the tags placed in the prefetch tag order section should start downloading immediately after installing the app, but my observations show that the resources behave like it's associated with on demand tag. Assuming: I expected that at least few first resources in order will be ready after 10-15 sec after installing and accessing these resources through conditionallyBeginAccessingResource() will return success almost immediately, but it's not.
Anyone faced this behaviour? Does this technology is still actual for 2022?
I spend a lot of time here on DevForums. Over the years I’ve read many posts, both good and bad. This page is my attempt at writing down what makes a good one. Hopefully some of you will find it useful.
Before you read this, read the official Apple Developer > Support > Developer Forums page.
If you have questions or feedback about any of the points raised here, start a new thread in the Developer Tools & Services > Developer Forums subtopic.
Share and Enjoy

Quinn’s Top Ten DevForums Tips
Here are my top ten DevForums tips:
Is DevForums right for you?
Search before you ask
Keep your expectations realistic
Topic, subtopic, and tags
Craft a quality post
Prefer text over images
Include details with your questions
Crash reports
Cross posting courtesy
Resize screenshots
Include a Spinal Tap reference
Close your threads
Think about your title
Post URLs in the clear
Many of these boil down to one word: Empathy. Think about the person who’s reading your post. Can they read it? Will they understand it? Will it help them?
1. Is DevForums right for you?
To quote Apple Developer > Support > Developer Forums, Apple Developer Forums (aka DevForums) is:
a great place to post questions, exchange knowledge, and connect with
fellow developers and Apple engineers on a variety of development
topics.
DevForums is focused on developer issues. That includes the APIs in Apple’s platform SDKs, Apple tools, developer-oriented Apple services like App Store Connect, and accessory development. If you have a user-level question, you’ll have more luck over in Apple Support Communities, run by Apple Support.
DevForums is focused on Apple technologies. If you’re using a third-party tool or library, feel free to ask questions about it here, but you’re more likely to find folks with relevant expertise in that technology’s dedicated support channel.
If you want to file a bug report, do that using Feedback Assistant. If you want to discuss a bug you’ve already filed, DevForums is a great place for that. Make sure to include your bug number in your post. For more hints and tips on the bug reporting process, see Bug Reporting: How and Why?.
2. Search before you ask
DevForums has a history stretching back to 2015. Many questions have been asked and answered here. Before you start a thread, search the forums for similar threads.
For details about the search syntax, see Apple Developer > Support > Developer Forums. For a quick summary, hover over the help (?) button next to the search field.
Remember that DevForums is world readable and thus indexed by Internet search engines.
3. Keep your expectations realistic
DevForums is an informal support channel; no one is being paid to answer DevForums questions full time. Keep that in mind when you post.
Apple provides a number of formal support channels. To request formal support, go to the Apple Developer > Contact Us page.
One of those support channels is the code-level support provided by Apple Developer Technical Support (DTS). For more information about DTS, see Apple Developer > Support > Requesting Technical Support.
Asking about Apple’s unannounced plans is unlikely to yield useful results. Apple folks can’t discuss The Future™, and non-Apple folks can only speculate.
Apple folks can’t discuss Apple’s internal business practices. For example, we can’t answer why question — “Why did Apple do this?” or “Why hasn’t Apple done that?” — unless there’s existing documentation that offers an explanation. If you think Apple should do something differently, file a bug that explains what you’d like to see change and the rationale for that.
Not everyone works the same hours as you do. DevForums is a worldwide community, so there are time zones to consider, but there’s also just individual preferences. This is especially relevant around weekends, where your reply on Friday may not be seen by other folks until Monday.
Different folks use DevForums in different ways. Some folks lean in to the notification system, whereas others allocate certain times of the day, or the week, to help out.
4. Topic, subtopic, and tags
DevForums organises threads by two attributes:
A high-level topic and subtopic
A fine-grained set of tags
Folks willing to offer help often monitor a specific set of subtopics or tags, and only see threads with those attributes. To increase the odds of getting a response, choose your subtopic and tags carefully.
The list of subtopics is immediately visible on the top-level page. For a list of tags and their descriptions, go to Developer > Support > Forums Tags. That’s a lot of tags!
When choosing a subtopic, choose the most specific one. For example, if you have a question about SwiftUI, choose UI Frameworks > SwiftUI rather than Programming Languages > Swift. The latter is primarily focused on the Swift language itself.
When choosing a tag, read the description of that tag. With so many tags there are inevitably cases where a tag doesn’t mean what you think it means. For example, the Exception Handling tag is about the rarely used Exception Handling framework, not about exception handling in general, and the description makes that clear.
5. Craft a quality post
When replying, use a reply rather than a comment. Comments are best reserved for short messages, like “Thanks!” or “See this other thread.”
IMPORTANT If you reply in the comments, other folks on the thread may not be notified of your reply.
DevForums supports Markdown formatting, similar to that used on GitHub and by DocC. The editor UI has buttons for the most common things, like Bold and Italic, but don’t feel the need to limit yourself to that.
Correct formatting is particularly important for preformatted text:
Use the Inline Code button, which inserts single backquote delimiters, for inline text in code style: identifiers and so on.
Use the Code Block button, which inserts triple backquote delimiters, for blocks of text in code style: code snippets, logs, and so on.
After submitting your post, look it over to make sure that it reads well. If not, you have a short window where you can edit the post to fix things.
6. Prefer text over images
Don’t use screenshots for data that’s essentially textual, like code snippets and logs. For example, if you want to post a log message, include that as text rather than adding a screenshot. That makes it much easier for your readers to work with the text.
Use the Code Block button, which inserts triple backquote delimiters, to format blocks of text in code style.
Reserve screenshots for situations where the issue is visual, for example:
When discussing view layout problems
When posting instructions to achieve some task in a GUI app, like Xcode
7. Include details with your questions
When starting a thread, try to include all the relevant details in your post. If you skimp on these details, folks will have to reply asking for them, and that slows things down.
Specifically, anticipate the following questions:
What platform are you targeting? And what version of that platform?
What version of Xcode are you using?
What version of the OS are you testing on?
What specific API are you using?
What are the exact steps you took?
If something failed, what are the symptoms of that failure? If an API returned an error, what was that error?
If nothing failed, what results did you see? And what were you expecting?
If you filed a bug, what was the bug number?
Have you tried reproducing the issue in a small test project?
What else have you tried?
For more thoughts on this, see Tips on writing forums posts.
Oh, and if you’re having a build problem, consider attaching a full build log.
8. Crash reports
If you post a crash report, follow the instructions in Posting a Crash Report.
9. Cross posting courtesy
Don’t start multiple threads for the same issue. That just wastes everyones time.
Sometimes this happens by accident. If that’s the case, add a comment to one of the threads redirecting folks to the other one.
If you find a bunch of old threads that might be related to your issue, don’t post full replies to all of them. Pick a lead thread and post your full reply there, then reply on the other threads with a link to the lead thread. Alternatively, start a new thread and reply on all the old threads with a link to that. That’ll help focus the discussion on your specific issue.
If you post your question to another support channel, provide a link to that in your DevForums question, and vice versa. That avoids folks working on a question that’s already been answered.
10. Resize screenshots
If your post includes an image, make sure it renders well. Screenshots from Retina displays are often ridiculously large. Use Preview to crop the screenshot and, if necessary, downsample it by 50% (using Tools > Adjust Size).
11. Include a Spinal Tap reference
To be clear, this is a joke. While the occasional Spinal Tap reference is allowed, please don’t add one to all your posts (-:
12. Close your threads
If someone replies with the answer you need, mark that as correct. That gives them some credit and helps other folks with similar questions find that answer.
If you find the answer by yourself, please post a short summary of what you did. Feel free to mark that correct.
If you accidentally post two copies of the same question, choose one as the primary and, in the other one, add a comment that links to it.
13. Think about your title
When creating a thread, think carefully about your title. Your title is your thread’s ‘marketing statement’, a way to entice folks to read your post. Try to summarise your issue in 15 words or less.
Adding tags to your title makes it harder to read. Instead, add your tags with the tagging UI. See tip 4 for more on tags.
14. Post URLs in the clear
DevForums has a list of websites you can link to at will. For example, it places no restrictions on links to Swift Forums.
To link to a site that’s not on the allowlist, skip the Markdown link syntax and post your link in the clear. So, this won’t work:
Apple is based in [Cupertino](https://www.cupertino.org).
but this will:
Apple is based in Cupertino.
https://www.cupertino.org

I am trying to develop a plug in for motion in Objective-c using the FxPlug template and so far I have been having issues with getting "NSOpenPanel" to be called from a push button in order to get a file dialog window, similar to the "File" generator present in Motion.
[paramAPI addPushButtonWithName: @"MIDI file"
parameterID: 1
selector: @selector(MIDI_func)
parameterFlags: kFxParameterFlag_DEFAULT]
I have tried to call NSOpenPanel through "dispatch_async" so that it would run on the main thread and thus not crash but when I press the button it appears not to work
- (void)MIDI_func {
NSLog(@"Button pressed");
dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
NSOpenPanel* openDlg = [NSOpenPanel openPanel];
[openDlg setCanChooseFiles:YES];
[openDlg setAllowsMultipleSelection:NO];
[openDlg setCanChooseDirectories:NO];
if ([openDlg runModal] == NSModalResponseOK) {
NSArray* urls = [openDlg URLs];
for(NSInteger i = 0; i < [urls count]; i++ ) {
NSString* url = [urls objectAtIndex:i];
NSLog(@"Url: %@", url);
}
}
});
}
How can I achieve this or is there a function in the FxPlug SDK that will let me open a file dialog from the host application?
Hello,
ever since the rewrite of the Apple Developer app 2 years ago, it has problems with storing which videos have been watched, and which aren't. Videos remain in "Continue Watching" section, no matter what and even finishing the videos will not mark them as watched.
Same issue on iOS or on Mac, does anyone have a solution for this?
Thanks!
Hello!
I am a new to programming and developing and I have a question:
I tried using Xcode and copied my code from Playgrounds into my Xcode Project.
But now it says 50 times "Cannot find (...) in scope."
In Playgrounds my code worked. What am I doing wrong?
Thank you very much!
