WKWebView missing page parts
Hi guys, I've been struggling for a few days with this really weird behaviour. We made an app for our e-commerce website and found out that a part of the product page is missing. For any reason, the header and first blocks of the page and footer are displayed, but then a massive part of the content is missing. This content is not loaded through ajax; that's why I don't understand why it's not displayed. You can see here 2 screenshots of what the page should look like and what the page looks like with WKWebView. I've been inspecting this with Safari; there isn't any blocking error in the console, and html elements are just empty. There is the div with class row and nothing in it. The same website is working perfectly with native Android Webview. If anyone has any clue to find out what's going wrong

orientation transaction token
Hello Im having an error in swiftUI project of mine. I use fullscreencover to navigate through views. Normally it s been working but one point it doesn't. I go through MainMenu -> SomeOtherView -> GameView -> AfterGameView -> SomeOtherView -> MainMenu. When it comes to mainmenu at last, it s showing main menu for a glimpse of a look and then goes back to GameView. In console an error took my notice. > A new orientation transaction token is being requested while a valid one already exists. reason=Fullscreen transition (dismissing): fromVC=<_TtGC7SwiftUI29PresentationHostingControllerVS_7AnyView_: 0x10795ca00>; toVC=<_TtGC7SwiftUI29PresentationHostingControllerVS_7AnyView_: 0x1071c3400>;; windowOrientation=portrait; sceneOrientation=portrait; existingTransaction=<_UIForcedOrientationTransactionToken: 0x600001804a40; state: active; originalOrientation: portrait (1)> Cant really finding the solution. Need help asap I will release a bug update to Appstore.

error handling - Xcode shows error since Xcode Version > 15
Hello together, since Xcode Version > 15 the following error handling causes following error "Pattern of type 'DecodingError' cannot match 'Never' func getSupportedCountries() async { // fetch all documents from collection "seasons" from firestore let queryCountries = try? await db.collection("countries").getDocuments() if queryCountries != nil { self.countries = (queryCountries!.documents.compactMap({ (queryDocumentSnapshot) -> Country? in let result = Result { try? queryDocumentSnapshot.data(as: Country.self) } switch result { case .success(let country): if let country = country { // A country value was successfully initialized from the DocumentSnapshot self.errorMessage = nil return country } else { // A nil value was successfully initialized from the DocumentSnapshot, // or the DocumentSnapshot was nil self.errorMessage = "Document doesn't exist." return nil } case .failure(let error): // A Country value could not be initialized from the DocumentSnapshot switch error { case DecodingError.typeMismatch(_, let context): self.errorMessage = "\(error.localizedDescription): \(context.debugDescription)" case DecodingError.valueNotFound(_, let context): self.errorMessage = "\(error.localizedDescription): \(context.debugDescription)" case DecodingError.keyNotFound(_, let context): self.errorMessage = "\(error.localizedDescription): \(context.debugDescription)" case DecodingError.dataCorrupted(let key): self.errorMessage = "\(error.localizedDescription): \(key)" default: self.errorMessage = "Error decoding document: \(error.localizedDescription)" } return nil } })) } else { self.errorMessage = "No documents in 'countries' collection" return } } the interesting part of the code where XCODE shows an error is from "switch error" downwards. Does anyone of you have an idea what's wrong? Ay help appreciated ! Thx, Peter

Polynomial Coefficients calculation
How can I calculate polynomial coefficients for Tone Curve points: // • Red channel: (0, 0), (60, 39), (128, 128), (255, 255) // • Green channel: (0, 0), (63, 50), (128, 128), (255, 255) // • Blue channel: (0, 0), (60, 47), (119, 119), (255, 255) CIFilter: func colorCrossPolynomial(inputImage: CIImage) -> CIImage? { let colorCrossPolynomial = CIFilter.colorCrossPolynomial() let redfloatArr: [CGFloat] = [1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0] let greenfloatArr: [CGFloat] = [0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1] let bluefloatArr: [CGFloat] = [0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0] colorCrossPolynomial.inputImage = inputImage colorCrossPolynomial.blueCoefficients = CIVector(values: bluefloatArr, count: bluefloatArr.count) colorCrossPolynomial.redCoefficients = CIVector(values: redfloatArr, count: redfloatArr.count) colorCrossPolynomial.greenCoefficients = CIVector(values: greenfloatArr, count: greenfloatArr.count) return colorCrossPolynomial.outputImage }

Swift6 race warning
I'm trying to fix some Swift6 warnings, this one seems too strict, I'm not sure how to fix it. The variable path is a String, which should be immutable, it's a local variable and never used again inside of the function, but still Swift6 complains about it being a race condition, passing it to the task What should I do here to fix the warning?

Swift 6 and 5 - Strict concurrency: complete and WKNavigationDelegate decidePolicyFor not being called.
decidePolicyFor delegate method: import WebKit @objc extension DocumentationVC { func webView(_ webView: WKWebView, decidePolicyFor navigationAction: WKNavigationAction, decisionHandler: @escaping (WKNavigationActionPolicy) -> Void) Being called just alright in swift 5 minimal concurrency. Raising concurrency to complete with swift 5 or swift 6. Changing the code to avoid warnings: @preconcurrency import WebKit @objc extension DocumentationVC { func webView(_ webView: WKWebView, decidePolicyFor navigationAction: WKNavigationAction, decisionHandler: @escaping (WKNavigationActionPolicy) -> Void) { The delegate method is not being called. Changing back to swift 5 concurrency minimal - it is called. Looking at WKNavigationDelegate: WK_SWIFT_UI_ACTOR @protocol WKNavigationDelegate <NSObject> - (void)webView:(WKWebView *)webView decidePolicyForNavigationAction:(WKNavigationAction *)navigationAction decisionHandler:(WK_SWIFT_UI_ACTOR void (^)(WKNavigationActionPolicy))decisionHandler WK_SWIFT_ASYNC(3); Changing the delegate method to: func webView(_ webView: WKWebView, decidePolicyFor navigationAction: WKNavigationAction, decisionHandler: @escaping @MainActor (WKNavigationActionPolicy) -> Void) { And it is called across swift 5 concurrency minimal to complete to swift 6. I thought, the meaning of @preconcurrency import WebKit was to keep the delegate without @MainActor before the (WKNavigationActionPolicy) still matching regardless the swift concurrency mode? My point is - this can introduce hidden breaking changes? I didn't see this documented anyhow at: https://www.swift.org/migration/documentation/migrationguide/. decidePolicyFor is an optional method - so if signature 'mismatches' - there will be no warning on not-implementing the delegate method. How do we catch or diagnose irregularities like this? Is it something @preconcurrency import WebKit should be ensuring and it is not? Is this delegate mismatch a bug on swift side or something we should be taking care of while migrating? If it is on us, how do we diagnose these potential mismatches?

How do I locate and this Bundle Error
❌ Could not find email_ai.py in the app bundle. Available files: [] The error above is what I’m encountering. I’ve placed the referenced file both in the project directory and inside the app. However, every time I remove and reinsert the file into the folder within the app, it prompts me to designate the targets—I select all, but this doesn’t resolve the issue. I’m unsure how to properly reference the file so that it is recognised and included in the bundle. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. this is my build phase: #!/bin/sh set -x # Prints each command before running it (for debugging) pwd # Shows the current working directory echo "$SRCROOT" # Shows what Xcode thinks is the project root ls -l "$SRCROOT/EmailAssistant/EmailAssistant/PythonScripts" # Lists files in the script folder export PYTHONPATH="/Users/caesar/.pyenv/versions/3.11.6/bin" /Users/caesar/.pyenv/versions/3.11.6/bin/python3 "$SRCROOT/EmailAssistant/EmailAssistant/PythonScripts/email_ai.py" echo "Script completed."

Why Actor-isolated property cannot be passed 'inout' to 'async' function call?
Considering below dummy codes: @MainActor var globalNumber = 0 @MainActor func increase(_ number: inout Int) async { // some async code excluded number += 1 } class Dummy: @unchecked Sendable { @MainActor var number: Int { get { globalNumber } set { globalNumber = newValue } } @MainActor func change() async { await increase(&number) //Actor-isolated property 'number' cannot be passed 'inout' to 'async' function call } } I'm not really trying to make an increasing function like that, this is just an example to make everything happen. As for why number is a computed property, this is to trigger the actor-isolated condition (otherwise, if the property is stored and is a value type, this condition will not be triggered). Under these conditions, in function change(), I got the error: Actor-isolated property 'number' cannot be passed 'inout' to 'async' function call. My question is: Why Actor-isolated property cannot be passed 'inout' to 'async' function call? What is the purpose of this design? If this were allowed, what problems might it cause?

autoreleasepool with async await
I ran into a problem, I have a recursive function in which Data type objects are temporarily created, because of this, the memory expands until the entire recursion ends. It would just be fixed using autoreleasepool, but it can't be used with async await, and I really don't want to rewrite the code for callbacks. Is there any option to use autoreleasepool with async await functions? (I Googled one option, that the Task already contains its own autoreleasepool, and if you do something like that, it should work, but it doesn't, the memory is still growing) func autoreleasepool&lt;Result&gt;(_ perform: @escaping () async throws -&gt; Result) async throws -&gt; Result { try await Task { try await perform() }.value }

Compiler - method linking issue.
Issue: During app execution, the intended method is not being called; instead, the method preceding (written above the intended method) is being executed. For Example: //In my case the ViewController class is at 3rd level of inheritance. class ViewController: UIViewController { func methodA() { print("methodA") } func methodB() { print("methodB") } } let vc = ViewController() vc.methodB() Output: //"methodA" Expected: //"methodB" Observations: Recent code changes have revealed that enabling the below Swift-6 flag leads to this linking issue. When this flag is commented out, the problem disappears. .enableUpcomingFeature("InternalImportsByDefault") Additionally, moving the intended method into an extension of the same class resolves the issue when the flag is enabled. Conclusion: To resolve the issue: Comment out the Swift-6 flag. Alternatively, move the method into an extension of the same class, which addresses the issue for this specific case. I had similar issue in other class where it crashes with message "method not found", but actually the method is there. When moving the method into an extension of same class resolve this issue. Any help is much appreciated. Thanking you..

Swift / C++ Interop with Storekit - actor isolated structure cannot be exported to C++
I can't find a viable path to call StoreKit from C++ right now and would love some ideas. I'm implementing the code exactly as shown at 4:09 in https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2023/10172/ However when I add any StoreKit functionality in I immediately get "Actor isolated structure cannot be exposed in C++" This makes me think I can't create a StoreKit view and call it from C++? Am I missing a better way? I don't think I can have another structure that holds the storeChooser in it because it will have the same problem (I assume, although I will check). Part of the issue seems to be that my app is C++ so there is no main function called in the swift for me to open this view with either, I was going to use the present function Zoe described (as below). I've tried a lot of alternative approaches but it seems to be blocking async functions from showing in C++ as well. So I'm not sure how to access the basic product(for:) and purchase(product) functions. import Foundation import StoreKit import SwiftUI public struct storeChooser: View { public var productIDs: [String] public var fetchError: String //@State //Note this is from the UI @State public var products: [Product] = [] // @State private var isPresented = true // weak private var host: UIViewController? = nil public init() { productIDs = ["20_super_crystals_v1"] products = [] self.fetchError = "untried" } public var body: some View { VStack(spacing: 20) { Text( "Products") ForEach(self.products) { product in Button { //dont do anything yet } label: { Text("\(product.displayPrice) - \(product.displayName)") } } }.task { do { try await self.loadProducts() } catch { print(error) } } } public func queryProducts() { Task { do { try await self.loadProducts() } catch { print(error) } } } public func getProduct1Name() -> String { if self.products.count > 0 { return self.products[0].displayName } else { return "empty" } } private func loadProducts() async throws { self.products = try await Product.products(for: self.productIDs) } /* public mutating func present(_ viewController: UIViewController) { isPresented = true; let host = UIHostingController(rootView: self) host.rootView.host = host viewController.present(host, animated: true) } */ }

Image Not Displaying on Some Devices – Same Code, Inconsistent Behavior
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!

Ambiguous use of 'textField' in Xcode 26
func textField( _ textField: UITextField, shouldChangeCharactersIn range: NSRange, replacementString string: String ) -&gt; 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?

Exposing Objective-C API to Swift inside a Framework (Private Framework API)
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?

Swift Package Manager – Support for Multiple Targets with Distinct Localization Files
I am an SDK provider working with Swift Package Manager (SPM) to deliver libraries for iOS developers. My SDK currently uses SPM targets to modularize functionality. However, SPM enforces strict resource bundling, which prevents me from efficiently offering multiple targets—each with a different set of localization files—in a single package. Current Limitation: When multiple SPM targets share the same source and resource directory but require distinct sets of .lproj localization folders (for app size or client requirements), SPM raises “overlapping sources” errors. The only workaround is to manually split resource directories or have clients prune localizations post-build, which is inefficient and error-prone. Feature Request: Please consider adding native support in Swift Package Manager for: Defining multiple targets within a single package that can process overlapping source/resource directories, Each target specifying a distinct subset of localization resource files via the exclude or a new designated parameter, Enabling efficient modular delivery of SDKs to clients needing different localization payloads, without redundant resource duplication or error-prone manual pruning. Support for this feature would greatly ease SDK distribution, lower app sizes, and improve package maintainability for iOS and all Swift platforms.

Adding days to a date using the result of a division operation
var testTwo: Double = 0 testDouble = 80 testTwo = 200 var testThree: Int = 0 testThree = Int(testTwo/testDouble) var testDate: Date = .now var dateComponent = DateComponents() dateComponent.day = testThree var newDate: Date = Calendar.current.date(byAdding: dateComponentwith a thread error , to: testDate)! This code works in a playground. However, when I try to use it in Xcode for my app it fails with the following error: Thread 1: Fatal error: Double value cannot be converted to Int because it is either infinite or NaN I printed the value being converted to Int and it was not NAN or infinite.
