Suddenly the source code stopped compiling into the release build

[alex-dubatov]

Suddenly the source code stopped compile release build's.
Even those source code commits that were compiled before.
There may have been some kind of software update.

Now the compilation of the release build ends with errors such as:

/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS17.0.sdk/usr/include/simd/matrix.h(25,25): Error G3127DA5A: use of undeclared identifier 'vzip1q_f32'; did you mean 'vzipq_f32'? (G3127DA5A) (FF.Mobile.iOS)

/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS17.0.sdk/usr/include/simd/matrix.h(17,17): Error G6D89C99D: no viable conversion from 'float32x4x2_t' to 'simd_float4' (vector of 4 'float' values) (G6D89C99D) (FF.Mobile.iOS)

Changing used XCode to version 14.3.1 propagate another error:

/Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/External/xbuild/Xamarin/iOS/Xamarin.Shared.targets(3,3): Error: strip exited with code 72:
xcrun: error: sh -c '/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/xcodebuild -sdk /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk -find strip 2> /dev/null' failed with exit code 16384: (null) (errno=Invalid argument)

[Jones-Abramoff]

I have exactly the same problem you mentioned about XCode 15 with the latest XCode, mac OS, and Visual Studio for mac.
If you build against iOS 16.4 simulator instead of iOS 17, it builds.
But I can't build a release version.

[Jones-Abramoff]

I couldn't wait for the fix so I renamed Xcode.app to Xcode1501.app, downloaded XCode 14.3.1, and followed the instructions at https://stackoverflow.com/questions/76958016/is-there-a-way-to-run-xcode-14-on-macos-sonoma.

I have no problems building it on local workstation (Intel) xcode15/macOS 13.5

[yaliashkevich]

I have no problems building it on local workstation (Intel) xcode15/macOS 13.5

That is not true actually, if you try to make release build with linking it fails.
Looks like here is a workaround
#19228

[yaliashkevich]

And it looks to be fixed in xcode 15.1, works well on beta without applying workaround above.

[rolfbjarne]

Error G3127DA5A: use of undeclared identifier 'vzip1q_f32'; did you mean 'vzipq_f32'?

This happens because Xcode 15 has broken header files when it comes to compiling for armv7.

See #19257 (comment) for more info.

The fix/workaround is to remove ARMV7 from the MtouchArch property in your project file.

Closing as a duplicate of #19257.

[alex-dubatov]

@rolfbjarne For ARMV7s also build failed. So I just set only ARM64 and then build succeeded.

[Vlasenkoip]

It turns out that neither Mac nor xcode can be updated to support xamarin applications?
This is very sad.
Last time I downloaded version 14.2 separately from the latest one only for xamarin, now neither it nor 14.3.1 allows you to build iOS applications..

Now I'm losing my time and money because I once trusted Microsoft...
