ISO 14443-4 Reading issue
I am working with a Texas Instruments RF430 NFC tag, which is compliant with: ISO/IEC 14443-4 (ISO-DEP) NFC Forum Type 4 Tag NFC-B protocol NDEF-formatted storage I’m using an iPhone 12 running iOS 18, and my app uses the Core NFC framework. Using NFCNDEFReaderSessionDelegate, I am able to successfully read the first NDEF message from the tag. However, the tag stores multiple NDEF messages, and I would like to access the others. Based on the tag’s specification, these messages are accessible via an NDEF file located at file ID 0xE104. To try and access this additional NDEF file, I attempted to use NFCTagReaderSession with the NFCTagReaderSessionDelegate, intending to issue APDU commands. However, the tagReaderSession(_:didDetect:) delegate method is never called, even though the tag is present and detected using NFCNDEFReaderSession. My questions: Does Core NFC on iOS 18 support issuing custom APDU commands to ISO 14443-4 (NFC-B) tags like the TI RF430? Is the use of NFCTagReaderSession with NFC-B fully supported for tags that implement ISO-DEP (even if they are NDEF-formatted)? Is there any known limitation or configuration required to ensure tagReaderSession(_:didDetect:) is triggered for NFC-B/ISO-DEP tags?

CoreData in Swift Packages
I am having issues loading my model from a Swift Package with the following structure: | Package.swift | Sources | - | SamplePackage | - | - Core | - | - | - SamplePackageDataStack.swift | - | - | - DataModel.xcdatamodeld | - | - | - | - Model.xcdatamodel ( <- is this new? ) As mentioned, I am not required to list the xcdatamodeld as a resource in my Package manifest. When trying to load the model in the main app, I am getting CoreData: error:  Failed to load model named DataModel Code: In my swift Package: public class SamplePackageDataStack: NSObject {     public static let shared = SamplePackageDataStack()     private override init() {}     public lazy var persistentContainer: NSPersistentContainer = { let container = NSPersistentContainer(name: "DataModel") container.loadPersistentStores(completionHandler: { (storeDescription, error) in             if let error = error as NSError? {                 fatalError("Unresolved error \(error), \(error.userInfo)")             }         })         return container     }()     /// The managed object context associated with the main queue.

Xcode 16.1 hang after adding Store Kit configuration
I don't know Xcode very well, and had been using it sporadically to test a project exported from Unity. I recently added a StoreKit Configuration to the project, and since then it gives me ≈10s after launching before the beach ball appears, and it never leaves. Xcode says it is "Indexing" but I don't know if that's an obvious culprit. I can still build my project via the fastlane tool, on the command line, and the newly-added StoreKit configuration works just fine. But I cannot use Xcode interactively any more, unless I re-export the project from Unity. The only difference between it working and hanging is the Store Kit configuration. How do I understand what's going on, and (ideally) fix it? The Activity Monitor gives a bunch of backtraces that don't have an obvious network or I/O culprit in them.

Can you use an external macOS device as an Xcode run destination?
Just wondering if it is possible to configure a secondary macbook to act as a run destination in Xcode, similar to how you would configure an iPhone as a run destination. I have tried connecting my device via USB-C and I can see that my macbook detects the second macbook via USB but it does not show up when trying to add devices in Xcode. I suppose this flow might not be supported?

LaunchServices has returned error -10810
M3 MBP running Sequoia 15.4.1 and Xcode 16.4 Mac is (old school) AD bound Mac is managed by Intune, and is set to allow apps to be run from anywhere. When we try to build and run anything in Xcode, we get the error in the title. Pertinent log entries: mcxalr{94} ** Denying execute for uid=1474851099 path=/Users//Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/mactest2-gevqwurjuobygdaiwboubirauoxv/Build/Products/Debug/mactest2.app/Contents/MacOS/mactest2 If we run it from an AD account that is set up as a local admin, then we get the OS dialog saying: You don't have permissions to use the application "mactest2." For more information, contact the person who set up your account. If that user logs out, and we log in with a "true" local admin account (UID 501), then we get the same results, BUT the OS dialog gives us the option to grant access to the app. (for whatever reason, the auth dialog seems to be created by ScreenTime.) Signing is set up correctly, but we're not trying to distribute anything, just literally trying to run the generic "hello world" default macOS app project.

How to call API of tested app in UI Testing of Xcode7?
Hi guys, recently I've been investigating new UI Testing in Xcode7. There seems to be limited APIs we can call direct in UI test. Can I include header files and call public API of my tested app in UI Test? so that I can have more flexibility to set my app status before running test. I intent to call API method "-(void)reloadURL:(NSURL *)url" of my app in UI Test, but test failed with "XCTRunner -[_XCTRunnerAppDelegate myAppDelegateUtils]: unrecoginzed selector sent to instance 0x7cf0a992fe10"In Unit Test we can call any API of the tested app, does it support in UI Testing too? I'm a start learner of Xcode and its testing...could anyone help to answer this question? Thanks!

Objective-C headers build fine with swift but not with Xcode
On my M4 Mac running macOS 15.5 using Xcode 16.4 & Xcode CLT 16.4, Swift code in my Swift Package Manager 5.9 project (https://github.com/mas-cli/mas) builds fine against some included Objective-C headers via the following command line: swift build -c release But cannot find modules for the included Objective-C headers when building inside Xcode 16.4 or with the following command line on the same Mac: xcodebuild -scheme mas -configuration Release -destination platform=macOS,arch=arm64,variant=macos The error is: Sources/mas/AppStore/AppleAccount.swift:9:16: error: no such module 'StoreFoundation' How can I get Xcode / xcodebuild to work? Note that the project is normally built by running: Scripts/build which runs: swift build -c release after running the following script, which must be run before any build (swift, Xcode, or xcodebuild) because it generates a necessary file (Sources/mas/Package.swift): Scripts/generate_package_swift I've tried moving the Objective-C headers into include subfolders of their existing module folders, using double quotes instead of angle brackets for the #import statements, having module.modulemap files in the include subfolders or their parent module folder, and moving the module folders one level up the file hierarchy, to no avail. I've also tried various changes to the root-level Package.swift (not the generated one deeper in the hierarchy, which isn't inclined in the build configuration), like making separate library targets for each of the Objective-C modules, various swiftSettings & linkerSettings, etc. Maybe some of those changes would have helped, but maybe they were in incorrect combinations. Thanks for any help.

AppIcon not showing in "About" box or app switcher
I can't get my app's logo to show in the "About" box nor in the app switcher. I have: created "Assets.xcassets" created "AppIcon" added 10 image files of the logo to the AppIcon image well [? right terminology ?] saved and built the project – there are no errors or warnings When I run the project, I still get the default image showing in the About box and in the app switcher. Because first attempt failed, I changed "applet" to "AppIcon" in "App Icons and Launch Screen" in "General" settings. That did not change the result. I also toggled "Include all app icon assets" which also did not change the result. Weirdly, my app's logo DOES show beside the app name in every item of "Build Settings". Do I need to do something else to change the default image in the "About" box ? Thanks. [Xcode 16.2 on macOS 15.3.2.]

Cannot Find UI to Add Core Data Database Indexes in Xcode 16.2
Hi everyone, I'm trying to add standard, non-unique database indexes to my Core Data entities for performance optimization (e.g., indexing Date or String attributes used in predicates and sort descriptors). I'm using Xcode 16.2 on macOS Sequoia 15.1. My problem is that I cannot find the expected UI element in the Core Data model editor (.xcdatamodeld) to configure these database indexes. What I Understand / Expect: I know the old "Indexed" checkbox on the Attribute Inspector is deprecated/gone. My understanding from recent documentation and tutorials is that database indexing (separate from Spotlight indexing) should be configured in the Entity Inspector (when the Entity itself is selected), within a section titled "Indexes" (usually located below "Constraints"). This "Indexes" section should allow adding individual or compound indexes that translate to SQL CREATE INDEX commands, distinct from uniqueness constraints. What I'm Experiencing: When I select an Entity in the model editor, the "Indexes" section is completely missing from the Data Model Inspector pane on the right. I see sections for Name, Class, Constraints, Spotlight, User Info, Versioning, etc., but no "Indexes" section appears between Constraints and Spotlight (or anywhere else). Troubleshooting Steps Taken: Verified Selection: I have confirmed I am selecting the Entity itself in the left-hand list, not an individual Attribute. Ruled out Spotlight Indexing: I understand the difference between database indexing (for internal query performance) and the "Index in Spotlight" checkbox/Core Spotlight framework (for system search). I specifically need the former. Basic Xcode Troubleshooting: I have tried restarting Xcode, cleaning the build folder (Shift+Command+K), and deleting the project's Derived Data. The "Indexes" section remains missing. Checked File Placement/Target Membership: Confirmed the .xcdatamodeld file is correctly included in the target. Its location in the project navigator doesn't seem relevant. Checked Model Versioning: Ensured the correct model version is set as "Current" in the File Inspector. Ruled out Other Features: Confirmed that Fetch Requests, Fetched Properties, and User Info keys are not the mechanisms for defining database indexes. Confirmed Not Project-Specific: I created a brand new, template-generated iOS App project with "Use Core Data" checked. In this new project, when selecting the default "Item" entity, the "Indexes" section is also missing from the Entity Inspector. This strongly suggests the issue is with my Xcode environment/version itself, not my specific project's setup. Considered Programmatic/Manual: I understand Core Data expects schema definitions (including indexes) declaratively in the model file. While manual XML editing of the contents file works (adding ... within the tag), this is not the desired or intended workflow via the standard tools. My Questions: What is the correct, current procedure for defining non-unique Core Data database indexes using the Xcode UI in Xcode 16.2? Has the location or method for configuring database indexes changed in this version of Xcode? If so, where is it now? Is the absence of the "Indexes" section in the Entity Inspector a known issue or intentional change for this Xcode version? If the standard UI method is unavailable, what is the officially recommended approach (other than manual XML editing)? I've reviewed the documentation ("Configuring Entities", "Configuring Attributes") and while screenshots show the inspectors, they don't definitively show the "Indexes" section within the Entity Inspector, sometimes focusing on attributes or potentially being cropped. Any clarification or guidance would be greatly appreciated!

Best strategy to embed multiple dylibs into frameworks
Hi, I compiled Intel Open Image Denoise library for iOS, and obtained a bunch of dependent dylibs. I want to use these ones in a swift project (via bridging as this is C/C++) targeting the iPad. I understand that it is required to embed these dylibs into frameworks as iOS doesn't allow dylib. Is it necessary to generate one framework for each dylib? If so, how are dependencies between the libraries (and their frameworks) managed? Or, is it possible to generate only one framework embeding all the dependencies?

AR Camera Freezes in Split View on iPad (Vuforia + Unity + iOS 16+)
Hi everyone, We're developing an AR app using Unity with Vuforia for object detection. Our app works well in full-screen mode, including detection and post-detection phases. However, we're facing a specific issue in iPad Split View multitasking mode. Problem: The AR camera (Vuforia-based) freezes during object detection if another app is opened in Split View. Post-detection, everything works fine in Split View. The problem only occurs during detection. Testing Environment: iPadOS 16+ Unity with Vuforia plugin Using EnableMultitaskingCameraAccess() method with AVFoundation to support camera multitasking AR scene is set up properly with detection capabilities in full-screen

Very hard Watch communication after update of Xcode, MacOs, Watch OS ?
I have a swift project with a Watch companion. Since the update of Xcode in 16.3 version after updating MAcOs , Watch OS, iOS to the latest version . It is quasi impossible for me to make Xcode work with my series 10 Watch. I have a lot of alert box, messages in the "device & Simulator" tool like this Previous preparation error: A connection to this device could not be established.; Timed out while attempting to establish tunnel using negotiated network parameters. And many message telling me that Xcode is preparing the Watch , then that it has lost the connexion. I have to wait some minutes after EACH run of the App to test it again. This is very annoying . Some of the alerts I have : And the best to know , is that I can run the APP outside of Xcode , it works, Connects to the iPhone, fetch data and so. the iPhone sees the Watch without and problem. Reboots can solve for a few minutes the problem. But that is not a solution.

ISO 14443-4 Reading issue

My understanding from recent documentation and tutorials is that database indexing (separate from Spotlight indexing) should be configured in the Entity Inspector (when the Entity itself is selected), within a section titled "Indexes" (usually located below "Constraints"). This "Indexes" section should allow adding individual or compound indexes that translate to SQL CREATE INDEX commands, distinct from uniqueness constraints. What I'm Experiencing: When I select an Entity in the model editor, the "Indexes" section is completely missing from the Data Model Inspector pane on the right. I see sections for Name, Class, Constraints, Spotlight, User Info, Versioning, etc., but no "Indexes" section appears between Constraints and Spotlight (or anywhere else). Troubleshooting Steps Taken: Verified Selection: I have confirmed I am selecting the Entity itself in the left-hand list, not an individual Attribute. Ruled out Spotlight Indexing: I understand the difference between database indexing (for internal query performance) and the "Index in Spotlight" checkbox/Core Spotlight framework (for system search). I specifically need the former. Basic Xcode Troubleshooting: I have tried restarting Xcode, cleaning the build folder (Shift+Command+K), and deleting the project's Derived Data. The "Indexes" section remains missing. Checked File Placement/Target Membership: Confirmed the .xcdatamodeld file is correctly included in the target. Its location in the project navigator doesn't seem relevant. Checked Model Versioning: Ensured the correct model version is set as "Current" in the File Inspector. Ruled out Other Features: Confirmed that Fetch Requests, Fetched Properties, and User Info keys are not the mechanisms for defining database indexes. Confirmed Not Project-Specific: I created a brand new, template-generated iOS App project with "Use Core Data" checked. In this new project, when selecting the default "Item" entity, the "Indexes" section is also missing from the Entity Inspector. This strongly suggests the issue is with my Xcode environment/version itself, not my specific project's setup. Considered Programmatic/Manual: I understand Core Data expects schema definitions (including indexes) declaratively in the model file. While manual XML editing of the contents file works (adding ... within the tag), this is not the desired or intended workflow via the standard tools. My Questions: What is the correct, current procedure for defining non-unique Core Data database indexes using the Xcode UI in Xcode 16.2? Has the location or method for configuring database indexes changed in this version of Xcode? If so, where is it now? Is the absence of the "Indexes" section in the Entity Inspector a known issue or intentional change for this Xcode version? If the standard UI method is unavailable, what is the officially recommended approach (other than manual XML editing)? I've reviewed the documentation ("Configuring Entities", "Configuring Attributes") and while screenshots show the inspectors, they don't definitively show the "Indexes" section within the Entity Inspector, sometimes focusing on attributes or potentially being cropped. Any clarification or guidance would be greatly appreciated!

Best strategy to embed multiple dylibs into frameworks
Hi, I compiled Intel Open Image Denoise library for iOS, and obtained a bunch of dependent dylibs. I want to use these ones in a swift project (via bridging as this is C/C++) targeting the iPad. I understand that it is required to embed these dylibs into frameworks as iOS doesn't allow dylib. Is it necessary to generate one framework for each dylib? If so, how are dependencies between the libraries (and their frameworks) managed? Or, is it possible to generate only one framework embeding all the dependencies?

AR Camera Freezes in Split View on iPad (Vuforia + Unity + iOS 16+)
Hi everyone, We're developing an AR app using Unity with Vuforia for object detection. Our app works well in full-screen mode, including detection and post-detection phases. However, we're facing a specific issue in iPad Split View multitasking mode. Problem: The AR camera (Vuforia-based) freezes during object detection if another app is opened in Split View. Post-detection, everything works fine in Split View. The problem only occurs during detection. Testing Environment: iPadOS 16+ Unity with Vuforia plugin Using EnableMultitaskingCameraAccess() method with AVFoundation to support camera multitasking AR scene is set up properly with detection capabilities in full-screen

Very hard Watch communication after update of Xcode, MacOs, Watch OS ?
I have a swift project with a Watch companion. Since the update of Xcode in 16.3 version after updating MAcOs , Watch OS, iOS to the latest version . It is quasi impossible for me to make Xcode work with my series 10 Watch. I have a lot of alert box, messages in the "device & Simulator" tool like this Previous preparation error: A connection to this device could not be established.; Timed out while attempting to establish tunnel using negotiated network parameters. And many message telling me that Xcode is preparing the Watch , then that it has lost the connexion. I have to wait some minutes after EACH run of the App to test it again. This is very annoying . Some of the alerts I have : And the best to know , is that I can run the APP outside of Xcode , it works, Connects to the iPhone, fetch data and so. the iPhone sees the Watch without and problem. Reboots can solve for a few minutes the problem. But that is not a solution.

Xcode JSONDecoder playground fails with 'The LLDB RPC server has crashed.
If I create a playground project that uses a JSONDecoder I get the following error. The LLDB RPC Server has crashed. The crash log is located at ~/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports and has a prefix 'lldb-rpc-server'. Please file a bug and attach the most recent crash log. I have raised feedback for this, FB17702087, but I hope that there may be a workaround. The code I am using to try and get this to work is from The Apple Developer Documentation - JSON Decoder var greeting = "JSON Test 3" struct GroceryProduct: Codable { var name: String var points: Int var description: String? } let json = """ { "name": "Durian", "points": 600, "description": "A fruit with a distinctive scent." } """.data(using: .utf8)! let decoder = JSONDecoder() let product = try decoder.decode(GroceryProduct.self, from: json) print(product.name) // Prints "Durian" A screenshot of the playground showing the error The crash log (the file type has been changed to txt as ips file types cannot be selected for upload. lldb-rpc-server-2025-05-28-140832.txt
