I have a framework, which depends on a library (GPGME) to do its actual encryption. As a consequence of using this external library, there are header files which have GPGME types in them... @interface E3Gpgme : NSObject ... /*****************************************************************************\ |* Call GPGME to sign \*****************************************************************************/ - (int) signWithMode:(gpgme_sig_mode_t)mode userId:(NSString *)signingKeyOrEmail srcStream:(E3Stream *)src dstStream:(E3Stream *)dst error:(NSError **)error; ... @end . This means the E3Gpgme class header file has to #import <gpgme.h> to get those type definitions. That is then proving problematic because the framework modularisation fails, with <e3gpgme.h> obviously not being a part of the framework, so the project refuses to build. I can see a few ways around this: Just don't run the modularisation check. That doesn't sound like a fantastic option import the GPGME headers (there's only 2) into the project and bundle them as if they were project ones. Again, not a great option, I don't expect GPGME to change its API but it runs the risk of there being a mismatch in future if the library code itself remains external. So what's the best-practice for requiring a dependency on a library, not a framework ? Is there a way to copy the library binary into a folder inside the framework folder and make sure you link with that ? Assuming that's the shared library it ought to still be ok for the LGPL licensing... Is there a better way ? I'm sure I'm not the first person to run into this :)

I've been trying to add my Github Account to Xcode, but even with my user name and access token, all I get is a spinning wheel. No error message, no feedback. Nothing. I'm going to do it from terminal but this seems just poor. Especially, since there's no feedback from XCode on what the problem is. Any help would be nice.

Hello! I'm using the new Xcode 26.3 RC and it's new MCP server: However, I am repeatedly prompted to give access to Codex (both the new macOS app and the CLI). And I'm seeing duplicates in the Xcode dropdown: It's pretty blocking in my workflow as I have to keep Allowing over and over again.

Is there a way to change the model to Opus it's using sonnet. I have a claude code max x2 subscription.

Hi! I have a Catalyst app that embeds command line utility. So the project has two targets: Catalyst target, this target depends on #2 and embeds it into its bundle. macOS target, the command line tool. Both targets have package dependency to the same package. I used this to embed the CMD tool. Everything builds, runs and works fine until I try to archive the project. Archiving stops early with such error: error: Multiple commands produce '/Users/kse2/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/PkgTest-clngkndczxoprpdlwefqqiqlryjt/Build/Intermediates.noindex/ArchiveIntermediates/PkgTest/IntermediateBuildFilesPath/UninstalledProducts/macosx/MacrosForSwift.o' note: Target 'MacrosForSwift' (project 'MacrosForSwift') has a command with output '/Users/kse2/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/PkgTest-clngkndczxoprpdlwefqqiqlryjt/Build/Intermediates.noindex/ArchiveIntermediates/PkgTest/IntermediateBuildFilesPath/UninstalledProducts/macosx/MacrosForSwift.o' note: Target 'MacrosForSwift' (project 'MacrosForSwift') has a command with output '/Users/kse2/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/PkgTest-clngkndczxoprpdlwefqqiqlryjt/Build/Intermediates.noindex/ArchiveIntermediates/PkgTest/IntermediateBuildFilesPath/UninstalledProducts/macosx/MacrosForSwift.o' What I have tried to fix archiving: Changing PkgTestCMD target to be on Catalyst/iOS instead of macOS. This works but I'm not sure how to properly run CMD tool with iOS SDK (if this correct at all): I need the main thread to be 'unblocked' and be active while background tasks exist. Adding an aux framework that act as container for the package. Doesn't work. Splitting targets into different projects, making workspace and cross-project reference. Doesn't work. My understanding is that archiving attempts to produce .o files for both Catalyst and macOS simultaneously, due to PkgTest being Catalyst and PkgTestCMD being macOS targets. How to archive such a project? Is there a way to separate archiving of CMD and main app? Maybe separate .o files into different directories. Simple building and running the project works, why archiving doesn't want to? I have a test project for the issue: PkgTest. main branch is the source project, DepFramework contains attempt #2, Workspace—#3. Thank you!

I've installed Xcode 26.3 on Sequoia 15.7.3 but I'm not seeing any of the AI options showing in Xcode that I see in usage/example videos. For example that AI icon in the top left hand corner isn't visible, and if I select Settings there is no Intelligence section, yet there is in all the demo videos. Why am I not seeing any of these new features?

I have the new Xcode 26.3 running on an Intel MBP macOS 26.2 I have clicked to download Codex in the Xcode settings, then under the Intelligence section I select Codex but where it says "ChatGPT Account" there is a spinner that never ends. I suspect it is meant to show a Sign In button. I don't see any documentation to suggest this shouldn't work on Intel, so what gives? My "ChatGPT in Xcode" section is successfully signed in, and i've tried signing that out.

I'm running Xcode 26.2 (17C52). After deleting all simulators and creating new ones, SwiftUI Preview stopped working. Xcode reports: “Simulator [D774B214-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXX8288] failed to boot and may have crashed.” However, when I list all available simulators using xcrun simctl list, there is no simulator with that identifier. It seems Xcode is still referencing a previously deleted simulator. I have tried: Deleting all simulators again Creating new simulators Restarting Xcode and the system But the issue persists and Preview still fails to launch. Has anyone encountered this issue or knows how to clear the cached simulator reference used by SwiftUI Preview?

I have got 26.3 running, signed in with calude max account and open ai plus account, but codex and claude agent "get " button is greyed out. I have apple intelligence turned on.. I can only use sonnet 4.5 inside xcode. anyone has an idea about whhy>?

I use Claude Code with AWS Bedrock models. I see that Xcode 26.3 has a way to add model providers but I don't see the URL or API key in use with Claude Code. Is it possible, or are the protocols different and I have to convince my company to pay for an Anthropic subscription

I need to use Xcode version 16 for a college project. However, I cannot install it on my mac. M2Pro - ios Tahoe 26.2. Is there any workaround for this? Is my best option to downgrade to Sequoia? I'm a little apprehensive about this but willing to give it a try. Can anyone recommend a good, reliable video for this?

I work on some proprietary codebases and can only use private AI services with them (currently MiniMax M2.1 and GLM 4.7). It all works great with both Claude Code and OpenCode agents, and I'd like to leverage the new agentic capabilities that are now in Xcode 26.3. I'm not seeing any option to connect to OpenCode, and both the Anthropic and OpenAI providers require an enterprise account (which I don't have access to). Are there any options that I'm missing here?

My project is complete, I successfully compile the application, but when I try to run it on my simulator it gives an error, stating that the architecture is incorrect, even though it is parameterized for ARM architecture. Note: the application runs on my iPhone. Has anyone else had this problem?

Hello! I started to develop a Mac application in Xcode 15, under MacOS 13. I made several commits in this environment. Later, I switched to another Mac and continued the development in Xcode 26.2, under MacOS 26. Since then, I haven't been able to make commits. I staged the changes, inserted the message, but the commit button is inactive (non-clickable), as shown in the picture. Can anyone help me to get it to work again? Thank you in advance.

I have a Xcode project with two apps that have a separate MainMenu.nib file. Both are different apps with different source trees.. Why am I seeing resources in interface builder from one app in another? I am a bit old school and using the AppDelegate rather than view controllers to capture events... but that should work fine Thanks ahead of time.

Hey folks, Looking for some assistance with using an API key with xcodebuild commands to archive/export builds on our Enterprise developer account. The goal here is to allow Xcode to completely manage signing/certificates with our cloud distribution certificate, since these builds are happening in CI and we don't want to be manually handling user sessions/certificates on these machines. This is working great with our App Store account, but with our Enterprise account we're getting errors both archiving and exporting the builds. Here's an example of an export command that is giving errors: xcodebuild -exportArchive -exportOptionsPlist /path/to/exportOptions.plist -archivePath /path/to/archive.xcarchive -exportPath /path/to/export -authenticationKeyID *** -authenticationKeyIssuerID *** -authenticationKeyPath /path/to/key.p8 -allowProvisioningUpdates I've put some example values there, but we've double/triple checked the real values when this is actually running. These are the errors we're getting: 2026-02-02 12:30:04.022 xcodebuild[59722:1854348] DVTServices: Received response for 0794248F-E534-474D-ABBF-40C1375B6590 @ <https://appstoreconnect.apple.com/xcbuild/QH65B2/listTeams.action?clientId=XABBG36SBA>.

I’m attempting to install the Metal toolchain in Xcode, but the installation keeps hanging. Through Xcode, it stops at the “Processing” step, and via the terminal, it never goes past “Beginning asset download…”.

While debugging a Swift application in Xcode, LLDB crashes with an assertion failure related to LLDBMemoryReader and pointer authentication. The issue occurs during normal debugging (e.g. inspecting variables or stack frames), and causes the debugger to become unusable.

Hello, I created a code in Xcode on my Mac. Once it was debugged I tried to run it on a simulator. Every time I run it on a simulator I get the white screen with the spinning red box. I'm very new at this and I am creating this app for my own child. As a teacher I couldn't stand the other math fact apps. You'll have to talk to me like an infant.

If you add a new string in your app (for example String(localized: "contact_support_message", defaultValue: "Please contact support")), then later you change that default value and rebuild, the string catalog updates to match as expected. But once that string is translated, changing the default value in code and rebuilding does not update the catalog. You seemingly have to go manually change the default value for English in the catalog to match the code (which marks the translation as Needs Review). Is there a better way? Or is there a way to determine what strings have default values in code that do not match the catalog values to see if any were missed as wording was tweaked over time?
