UIKit-xxx.pcm' does not exist
Setting breakpoints in Xcode and debugging the program will output the following information in the console. The first breakpoint debugging is triggered every time you compile and run the program. Furthermore, loading variables during breakpoint debugging takes a very long time. Why is this information outputted? And why does it take so long warning: (arm64) /Users/xxx/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/MYApp-edwwubwxxruxpddmfzegvkdqhppk/Build/Products/Debug-iphoneos/XCFrameworkIntermediates/FBKVOController/FBKVOController.framework/FBKVOController(FBKVOController.o) '/var/folders/45/h0vrkd951jjbc538flwxctqc0000gn/C/clang/ModuleCache/2OX0YH8X0GZ6V/UIKit-HKJAGZJT5Z2N.pcm' does not existwarning: (arm64) Environment Xcode Version 16.4 (16F6) + any iPhone device

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.

Sandbox restriction Error 159: Tap to Pay integration in iOS app
Hi all, I am hope someone could assist me with the below error if you ever ran into this during Tap-to-Pay functionality integration on iOS/iPadOS devices. Pre-condition: I have received required entitlements for the Tap-to-Pay integration and created Sandbox test account to validate my development work. Used updated development profile with the new capabilities required for the Integration. When i try to test my flow, i keep receiving this error, with multiple sandbox accounts in developer portal. Error (refreshContext): proxy error handler [ Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=4099 "The connection to service named com.apple.merchantd.transaction was invalidated: failed at lookup with error 159 - Sandbox restriction."

Failure to build on some iOS simulators when app includes a call to WKWebView.find method
I have experienced problems with my app crashing on build (I believe it's while linking) with various combinations of Xcode version and iOS simulator version. It dates back to Xcode 16.3 in my testing, and continues through Xcode 16.4 and all Xcode 26 betas. This occurs whether the project running is UIKit-based or SwiftUI-based. Simply dropping a file with the following code into a project, without even needing to refer to its class anywhere else in the project, produces the crash. import Foundation import WebKit class WebBrowserController: NSObject, ObservableObject, WKNavigationDelegate { var webView: WKWebView override init() { self.webView = WKWebView() super.init() } func findString(_ string: String, completion: @escaping (WKFindResult) -> Void) { let configuration = WKFindConfiguration() webView.find(string, configuration: configuration) { result in completion(result) } } } With Xcode 26 beta 4 I am experiencing this issue with iOS 18.4 and iOS 18.5 simulators, but not with iOSW 18.3 or iOS 26 simulators. The complete history of my testing back to Xcode 16.3 and the problematic iOS versions is included Feedback #FB17737471.

Latest Xcode build giving multiple system level errors
with the latest Xcode version, i am getting all kinds of errors: few main ones: /Users/akashbhatia/MyApp/ios/Pods/Target Support Files/ReactCodegen/ReactCodegen-prefix.pch:2:9 Could not build module 'UIKit' /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneSimulator18.4.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/CFNetwork.framework/Headers/CFNetwork.h:18:10 Could not build module 'CoreFoundation' /Users/akashbhatia/MyApp/ios/Pods/Headers/Public/RCT-Folly/folly/portability/Config.h:20:10 'folly/folly-config.h' file not found I have reinstalled Xcode, removed derived data, installed pod over and over again, but I have realized from the first error here, that it has more to do with Xcode and React Native now.

Undefined symbol linker errors after upgrading to Xcode 16 with Flutter iOS integration
Dear Apple Developer Support, We are experiencing a critical issue after upgrading our development environment from Xcode 15 to Xcode 16 (beta). Our iOS application integrates Flutter via CocoaPods (install_all_flutter_pods and flutter_post_install) and uses plugins like webview_flutter. After the upgrade, our project started failing at the linking stage with the following errors: Undefined symbol: _XPluginsGetDataFuncOrAbort Undefined symbol: _XPluginsGetFunctionPtrFromID Undefined symbol: Plugins::SocketThreadLocalScope::SocketThreadLocalScope(int) Undefined symbol: Plugins::SocketThreadLocalScope::~SocketThreadLocalScope() Linker command failed with exit code 1 These symbols seem to originate from Flutter’s new native C++ plugin architecture (possibly via webview_flutter_wkwebview), and were previously resolving fine with Xcode 15. We have ensured the following: Added -lc++ and -ObjC to OTHER_LDFLAGS Cleaned and rebuilt Flutter module via flutter build ios --release Re-installed CocoaPods with pod install Verified Flutter.xcframework and plugin xcframeworks are present Despite this, the linker fails to resolve the mentioned symbols under Xcode 16. This suggests a stricter linker behavior or a compatibility issue with the new C++ plugin system Flutter uses. Can you confirm: If Xcode 16 introduces stricter C++/Objective-C++ linker constraints? Is there an official workaround or updated documentation for dealing with Plugins::SocketThreadLocalScope and related symbol resolution? Should these symbols be declared explicitly or provided in .xcframework format from plugin developers? We would appreciate guidance or clarification on how to proceed with Flutter plugin compatibility under Xcode 16. Thank you.

Questions about Deployment Targets in Xcode
The “Deployment Targets” for iOS was IOS12 or higher in Xcode15, but is now listed as IOS15 or higher in Xcode16. https://developer.apple.com/support/xcode/ How does this change affect developers and users? For example, if a developer specifies less than iOS15 in the “iOS Deployment Target” on Xcode, how will this affect them? Also, will users under iOS 15 be unable to run the apps?

Most useless Xcode error message ever
Neither a google search, nor a search of the Apple forums give me a clue as to how to locate or fix the following message I get from Xcode. CLIENT: Failure to determine if this machine is in the process of shutting down, err=1/Operation not permitted This error message came from attempting to build and execute an iOS App which ran just fine the last time I built it. Now, that was actually a little over two years ago. This is an iOS app, which I've run successfully for more than a year on macOS, and that, "My Mac (Designed for iPad)", is what my build target for this run was. Any ideas? Anyone? If this is a "known condition", just why doesn't a friendly internet search or a search of the Apple forums NOT tell me what it means, or what causes the message. Of course, I've upgraded the OS a few times, and updated Xcode as well, but have just not had any time to monkey around with my pet code project. Now that I've gotten some time, and I want to see what's new since March of '23, I finally remember where I stashed my code repository and decided to take it for a spin. Sure, I expect(ed) to see Xcode tell me that the version of Swift has been updated, and maybe some code constructs need to be fixed. But, NO, the code compiles fine. The first build attempt told me that I needed to update my provisioning profiles, and sign-in and agree to the updated developer agreements, which I did. Not so unhelpful was the code window in the debugger: libswiftCore.dylib`swift_willThrow: -> 0x1aeb7b2a0 <+0>: pacibsp 0x1aeb7b2a4 <+4>: str x19, [sp, #-0x20]! 0x1aeb7b2a8 <+8>: stp x29, x30, [sp, #0x10] 0x1aeb7b2ac <+12>: add x29, sp, #0x10 0x1aeb7b2b0 <+16>: adrp x8, 365651 0x1aeb7b2b4 <+20>: add x8, x8, #0x88 ; _swift_willThrow 0x1aeb7b2b8 <+24>: ldapr x8, [x8] 0x1aeb7b2bc <+28>: cbnz x8, 0x1aeb7b2cc ; <+44> 0x1aeb7b2c0 <+32>: ldp x29, x30, [sp, #0x10] 0x1aeb7b2c4 <+36>: ldr x19, [sp], #0x20 0x1aeb7b2c8 <+40>: retab 0x1aeb7b2cc <+44>: mov x0, x21 0x1aeb7b2d0 <+48>: mov x19, x21 0x1aeb7b2d4 <+52>: blraaz x8 0x1aeb7b2d8 <+56>: mov x21, x19 0x1aeb7b2dc <+60>: b 0x1aeb7b2c0 ; <+32> Still not much to go on. I decide to see if it was a macOS vs. iOS issue, so did a clean build folder and tried running on an iPad simulator, "iPad (10th generation)". Now, I have a blank white screen on my simulator and not much to go on in the code window. import SwiftUI @main struct JottoApp: App { Thread1: Breakpoint 1.1 var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { ContentView() } } init() { UITableView.appearance().backgroundColor = UIColor.clear } } Any and all help with this error message will be appreciated.

Potential Issue with SKStoreReviewController.requestReview API - Significant Drop in App Store Ratings
We are experiencing a significant issue with the SKStoreReviewController.requestReview(in: scene) API that may be affecting our app's rating collection on the App Store. Issue Details: Development Environment Behavior: The rating popup displays consistently in development builds (as expected per documentation) API calls are functioning correctly in our test environment Production Environment Issue: We have observed a major drop in App Store ratings received between January and July 2025 The same codebase that works in development is deployed to production Analytics Confirmation: Before calling SKStoreReviewController.requestReview() in production, we fire analytics tags to track API invocations Our analytics show no drop in the number of times this API is being called This confirms the API is being invoked correctly in production Discrepancy: Despite consistent API calls (confirmed by analytics), we see a major drop in actual ratings received on the App Store This suggests the rating popup may not be displaying to users in production, even though the API call is successful Questions: Are there any known issues with SKStoreReviewController.requestReview() API between January-July 2025? Are there any iOS version-specific issues that might prevent the popup from appearing in live app? What debugging steps do you recommend to identify why the API calls aren't resulting in visible rating prompts?

How to disable Stereo Spatialization in Apps
I have an App that has working audio for most devices except for iOS18 + Air pods pro connected. Eventually I realized that this is due to the Audio Spatialization which is enabled by default. I found a information property list key called AVGameBypassSystemSpatialAudio which can be enabled to true AVGameBypassSystemSpatialAudio and now the audio works for 90% of the game. However my game has a .MP4 which when it is played will be paused when the air pods are connected and after force skipping the video the Spatialization is now enabled and the app no longer has audio. I checked through the logs and found this part mediaplaybackd <<<< FigFilePlayer >>>> itemfig_establishedStereoAudioSpatializationPreferenceForAsset: <0x53451c000|I/OWH.01>: Stereo Spatialization allowed by default due to asset containing video After this line I can see the Spatialization being enabled. Does anyone know how to disable this auto setting of stereo Spatialization by default?

Proper includes into Package.swift
Ok, I have a bit of special problem. I want to use the "Swift Upcoming Feature Flags" in my packages. The problem is that we have quite a lot of Packages in a quite deep tree: at the root of the Package directory there are four dirs: AppA/ AppB/ Shared/ Temporary/ also the packages ExternalLibs and BuildPlugins. Temporary contains Packages that need rework and the other three subdirs each contain the subdirs: Features/ Utilities/ Services/ All in all there are over 100 packages. Now I would like to use definitions like https://github.com/treastrain/swift-upcomingfeatureflags-cheatsheet to use in the Package.swift files. And as you might guess, I do not want to copy those into each and every Package.swift file. It seems like SPM is only finding includes by itself if they are in the exact same directory as the Package.swift file 🙄 That's not at all helpful… Has anyone found a way to do useful includes into Package.swift files? Any help appreciated. Thank You Roddi

Xcode26 beta.2 build error
I am writing to report multiple issues encountered after updating to Xcode 26 Beta, which have significantly impacted my project's compilation and functionality. My project can run normally in Xcode16.3 version, Below are the specific problems, along with the steps I took to address them and the subsequent errors that arose: Symbol Not Found Error for _NSUserActivityTypeBrowsingWeb After updating to Xcode 26 Beta, my project failed to build with the error: "Symbol not found: _NSUserActivityTypeBrowsingWeb." To resolve this, I removed the MobileCoreServices framework from the Build Settings, as it appeared to be related. However, this led to a new error, indicating that this change introduced further complications. Clang++ Error: No Such File or Directory 'OpenGLES' Following the resolution of the first issue, I encountered a new error: "iOS clang++: error: no such file or directory: 'OpenGLES'." To address this, I added the OpenGLES.framework to the Build Phases. While this resolved the clang++ error, it triggered additional errors, suggesting that the underlying issue persists or new dependencies are conflicting. Recurring XIB File Compilation Errors My project uses XIB files, and every time I attempt to compile and run, Xcode reports errors related to different XIB files. Notably, when I open the reported XIB file, no errors are displayed within the Interface Builder. After saving or inspecting the file, the compilation error temporarily disappears, only for another XIB file to trigger the same issue in the next build. This creates a repetitive cycle. I have confirmed this is not a caching issue, as I clean the build cache (Product &gt; Clean Build Folder) before each run. If I skip cleaning the cache, the OpenGLES-related error (Issue 2) reappears, indicating potential interactions between these problems. These issues have made development with Xcode 26 Beta extremely challenging, as each attempted fix seems to introduce new errors, and the XIB issue creates a persistent loop. My setup includes: Xcode Version: 26.0 beta 2 (17A5241o) macOS Version:15.4.1 (24E263)

Custom font not support in Xcode 16.3
I'm experiencing an issue with a custom font not loading properly in Xcode 16.3. The font files are included in the bundle, listed in Info.plist, and verified for correct names using UIFont.familyNames, but they still don't appear at runtime. Has anyone else run into this with Xcode 16.3? Could this be related to recent changes in asset packaging or font catalogs?

Xcode Test Pane for TDD and Unit Tests?
At the last place I worked it took roughly 5 minutes to do an application build. Which in turn made doing any sort of TDD or ever just regular Unit Tests extremely painful to do as the cycle time was simply too long. But that got me thinking. In recent versions of Xcode, Apple added Previews for SwiftUI Views that basically showed code changes to the View in real time. And Previews were made possible by extremely targeted compilation of the view in question. So... what if instead of a Preview pane in the Xcode IDE there was a Test pane the could be displayed such that Tests for a piece of code could be created and run almost immediately? Perhaps by adding a #Testing section to your code #Testing(MyService.self) // Define the entity to be tested. If you could drop the turnaround time AND provide a test playground for service level code that could speed development of such code greatly... and encourage interactive test development at the same time. What do you think?

Latest Xcode build giving multiple system level errors
with the latest Xcode version, i am getting all kinds of errors: few main ones: /Users/akashbhatia/MyApp/ios/Pods/Target Support Files/ReactCodegen/ReactCodegen-prefix.pch:2:9 Could not build module 'UIKit' /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneSimulator18.4.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/CFNetwork.framework/Headers/CFNetwork.h:18:10 Could not build module 'CoreFoundation' /Users/akashbhatia/MyApp/ios/Pods/Headers/Public/RCT-Folly/folly/portability/Config.h:20:10 'folly/folly-config.h' file not found I have reinstalled Xcode, removed derived data, installed pod over and over again, but I have realized from the first error here, that it has more to do with Xcode and React Native now. Any help will be appreciated.

Undefined symbol linker errors after upgrading to Xcode 16 with Flutter iOS integration
Dear Apple Developer Support, We are experiencing a critical issue after upgrading our development environment from Xcode 15 to Xcode 16 (beta). Our iOS application integrates Flutter via CocoaPods (install_all_flutter_pods and flutter_post_install) and uses plugins like webview_flutter. After the upgrade, our project started failing at the linking stage with the following errors: Undefined symbol: _XPluginsGetDataFuncOrAbort Undefined symbol: _XPluginsGetFunctionPtrFromID Undefined symbol: Plugins::SocketThreadLocalScope::SocketThreadLocalScope(int) Undefined symbol: Plugins::SocketThreadLocalScope::~SocketThreadLocalScope() Linker command failed with exit code 1 These symbols seem to originate from Flutter’s new native C++ plugin architecture (possibly via webview_flutter_wkwebview), and were previously resolving fine with Xcode 15. We have ensured the following: Added -lc++ and -ObjC to OTHER_LDFLAGS Cleaned and rebuilt Flutter module via flutter build ios --release Re-installed CocoaPods with pod install Verified Flutter.xcframework and plugin xcframeworks are present Despite this, the linker fails to resolve the mentioned symbols under Xcode 16. This suggests a stricter linker behavior or a compatibility issue with the new C++ plugin system Flutter uses. Can you confirm: If Xcode 16 introduces stricter C++/Objective-C++ linker constraints? Is there an official workaround or updated documentation for dealing with Plugins::SocketThreadLocalScope and related symbol resolution? Should these symbols be declared explicitly or provided in .xcframework format from plugin developers? We would appreciate guidance or clarification on how to proceed with Flutter plugin compatibility under Xcode 16. Thank you.

Questions about Deployment Targets in Xcode
The “Deployment Targets” for iOS was IOS12 or higher in Xcode15, but is now listed as IOS15 or higher in Xcode16. https://developer.apple.com/support/xcode/ How does this change affect developers and users? For example, if a developer specifies less than iOS15 in the “iOS Deployment Target” on Xcode, how will this affect them? Also, will users under iOS 15 be unable to run the apps?

Most useless Xcode error message ever
Neither a google search, nor a search of the Apple forums give me a clue as to how to locate or fix the following message I get from Xcode. CLIENT: Failure to determine if this machine is in the process of shutting down, err=1/Operation not permitted This error message came from attempting to build and execute an iOS App which ran just fine the last time I built it. Now, that was actually a little over two years ago. This is an iOS app, which I've run successfully for more than a year on macOS, and that, "My Mac (Designed for iPad)", is what my build target for this run was. Any ideas? Anyone? If this is a "known condition", just why doesn't a friendly internet search or a search of the Apple forums NOT tell me what it means, or what causes the message. Of course, I've upgraded the OS a few times, and updated Xcode as well, but have just not had any time to monkey around with my pet code project. Now that I've gotten some time, and I want to see what's new since March of '23, I finally remember where I stashed my code repository and decided to take it for a spin. Sure, I expect(ed) to see Xcode tell me that the version of Swift has been updated, and maybe some code constructs need to be fixed. But, NO, the code compiles fine. The first build attempt told me that I needed to update my provisioning profiles, and sign-in and agree to the updated developer agreements, which I did. Not so unhelpful was the code window in the debugger: libswiftCore.dylib`swift_willThrow: -> 0x1aeb7b2a0 <+0>: pacibsp 0x1aeb7b2a4 <+4>: str x19, [sp, #-0x20]! 0x1aeb7b2a8 <+8>: stp x29, x30, [sp, #0x10] 0x1aeb7b2ac <+12>: add x29, sp, #0x10 0x1aeb7b2b0 <+16>: adrp x8, 365651 0x1aeb7b2b4 <+20>: add x8, x8, #0x88 ; _swift_willThrow 0x1aeb7b2b8 <+24>: ldapr x8, [x8] 0x1aeb7b2bc <+28>: cbnz x8, 0x1aeb7b2cc ; <+44> 0x1aeb7b2c0 <+32>: ldp x29, x30, [sp, #0x10] 0x1aeb7b2c4 <+36>: ldr x19, [sp], #0x20 0x1aeb7b2c8 <+40>: retab 0x1aeb7b2cc <+44>: mov x0, x21 0x1aeb7b2d0 <+48>: mov x19, x21 0x1aeb7b2d4 <+52>: blraaz x8 0x1aeb7b2d8 <+56>: mov x21, x19 0x1aeb7b2dc <+60>: b 0x1aeb7b2c0 ; <+32> Still not much to go on. I decide to see if it was a macOS vs. iOS issue, so did a clean build folder and tried running on an iPad simulator, "iPad (10th generation)". Now, I have a blank white screen on my simulator and not much to go on in the code window. import SwiftUI @main struct JottoApp: App { Thread1: Breakpoint 1.1 var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { ContentView() } } init() { UITableView.appearance().backgroundColor = UIColor.clear } } Any and all help with this error message will be appreciated.

Potential Issue with SKStoreReviewController.requestReview API - Significant Drop in App Store Ratings
We are experiencing a significant issue with the SKStoreReviewController.requestReview(in: scene) API that may be affecting our app's rating collection on the App Store. Issue Details: Development Environment Behavior: The rating popup displays consistently in development builds (as expected per documentation) API calls are functioning correctly in our test environment Production Environment Issue: We have observed a major drop in App Store ratings received between January and July 2025 The same codebase that works in development is deployed to production Analytics Confirmation: Before calling SKStoreReviewController.requestReview() in production, we fire analytics tags to track API invocations Our analytics show no drop in the number of times this API is being called This confirms the API is being invoked correctly in production Discrepancy: Despite consistent API calls (confirmed by analytics), we see a major drop in actual ratings received on the App Store This suggests the rating popup may not be displaying to users in production, even though the API call is successful Questions: Are there any known issues with SKStoreReviewController.requestReview() API between January-July 2025? Are there any iOS version-specific issues that might prevent the popup from appearing in live app? What debugging steps do you recommend to identify why the API calls aren't resulting in visible rating prompts?

How to disable Stereo Spatialization in Apps
I have an App that has working audio for most devices except for iOS18 + Air pods pro connected. Eventually I realized that this is due to the Audio Spatialization which is enabled by default. I found a information property list key called AVGameBypassSystemSpatialAudio which can be enabled to true AVGameBypassSystemSpatialAudio and now the audio works for 90% of the game. However my game has a .MP4 which when it is played will be paused when the air pods are connected and after force skipping the video the Spatialization is now enabled and the app no longer has audio. I checked through the logs and found this part mediaplaybackd <<<< FigFilePlayer >>>> itemfig_establishedStereoAudioSpatializationPreferenceForAsset: <0x53451c000|I/OWH.01>: Stereo Spatialization allowed by default due to asset containing video After this line I can see the Spatialization being enabled. Does anyone know how to disable this auto setting of stereo Spatialization by default?

Proper includes into Package.swift
Ok, I have a bit of special problem. I want to use the "Swift Upcoming Feature Flags" in my packages. The problem is that we have quite a lot of Packages in a quite deep tree: at the root of the Package directory there are four dirs: AppA/ AppB/ Shared/ Temporary/ also the packages ExternalLibs and BuildPlugins. Temporary contains Packages that need rework and the other three subdirs each contain the subdirs: Features/ Utilities/ Services/ All in all there are over 100 packages. Now I would like to use definitions like https://github.com/treastrain/swift-upcomingfeatureflags-cheatsheet to use in the Package.swift files. And as you might guess, I do not want to copy those into each and every Package.swift file. It seems like SPM is only finding includes by itself if they are in the exact same directory as the Package.swift file 🙄 That's not at all helpful… Has anyone found a way to do useful includes into Package.swift files? Any help appreciated. Thank You Roddi

Xcode26 beta.2 build error
I am writing to report multiple issues encountered after updating to Xcode 26 Beta, which have significantly impacted my project's compilation and functionality. My project can run normally in Xcode16.3 version, Below are the specific problems, along with the steps I took to address them and the subsequent errors that arose: Symbol Not Found Error for _NSUserActivityTypeBrowsingWeb After updating to Xcode 26 Beta, my project failed to build with the error: "Symbol not found: _NSUserActivityTypeBrowsingWeb." To resolve this, I removed the MobileCoreServices framework from the Build Settings, as it appeared to be related. However, this led to a new error, indicating that this change introduced further complications. Clang++ Error: No Such File or Directory 'OpenGLES' Following the resolution of the first issue, I encountered a new error: "iOS clang++: error: no such file or directory: 'OpenGLES'." To address this, I added the OpenGLES.framework to the Build Phases. While this resolved the clang++ error, it triggered additional errors, suggesting that the underlying issue persists or new dependencies are conflicting. Recurring XIB File Compilation Errors My project uses XIB files, and every time I attempt to compile and run, Xcode reports errors related to different XIB files. Notably, when I open the reported XIB file, no errors are displayed within the Interface Builder. After saving or inspecting the file, the compilation error temporarily disappears, only for another XIB file to trigger the same issue in the next build. This creates a repetitive cycle. I have confirmed this is not a caching issue, as I clean the build cache (Product &gt; Clean Build Folder) before each run. If I skip cleaning the cache, the OpenGLES-related error (Issue 2) reappears, indicating potential interactions between these problems. These issues have made development with Xcode 26 Beta extremely challenging, as each attempted fix seems to introduce new errors, and the XIB issue creates a persistent loop. My setup includes: Xcode Version: 26.0 beta 2 (17A5241o) macOS Version:15.4.1 (24E263)

Custom font not support in Xcode 16.3
I'm experiencing an issue with a custom font not loading properly in Xcode 16.3. The font files are included in the bundle, listed in Info.plist, and verified for correct names using UIFont.familyNames, but they still don't appear at runtime. Has anyone else run into this with Xcode 16.3? Could this be related to recent changes in asset packaging or font catalogs?

Xcode Test Pane for TDD and Unit Tests?
At the last place I worked it took roughly 5 minutes to do an application build. Which in turn made doing any sort of TDD or ever just regular Unit Tests extremely painful to do as the cycle time was simply too long. But that got me thinking. In recent versions of Xcode, Apple added Previews for SwiftUI Views that basically showed code changes to the View in real time. And Previews were made possible by extremely targeted compilation of the view in question. So... what if instead of a Preview pane in the Xcode IDE there was a Test pane the could be displayed such that Tests for a piece of code could be created and run almost immediately? Perhaps by adding a #Testing section to your code #Testing(MyService.self) // Define the entity to be tested. If you could drop the turnaround time AND provide a test playground for service level code that could speed development of such code greatly... and encourage interactive test development at the same time. What do you think?
