Hi
in delphi 12 show this error

[DCC Error] E2597 ld: file not found: /usr/lib/swift/libswiftUIKit.dylib

Which framework do I need to add?

Delphi 12 , XCODE 13.4

Thanks

There's some instructions for adding Swift support, here. You will also need to ensure you have the Linker Options configured correctly in Project Options as per these instructions.

I have just noticed you have a version of Xcode that may not even have the Swift support mentioned earlier. Delphi 12 is able to use Xcode 15.1, so I suggest updating. If your Mac is too old to update macOS/Xcode, I suggest watching this part of this video.

I did the same thing. It works fine with Delphi 11. I thought maybe it's from XCODE. The Mac is old and I couldn't update it.

I'll take a look right now. I hope it helps. Thank you.

---Edit---
I watched this webinar online, but I am not sure if it will be helpful. I will watch it again.

You might need to provide more information, then - perhaps a test project that reproduces the error?

It should be helpful if you have an older Mac and are unable to update macOS/Xcode. The link I posted is for the exact moment that @Ian Barker discusses how to solve the macOS/Xcode upgrade issue.

Did you follow and/or check the instructions in my earlier reply?

I created the folders in the paths that it couldn't find. ("PrivateFrameworks" and "AppTrackingTransparency.framework\AppTrackingTransparency")
Now it only shows this error:
[DCC Fatal Error] F2588 Linker error code: 3221226505 ($c0000409)
I couldn't find a solution for this.

You should not have to manually create missing folders. Even if you did, the files that the compiler needs would not be there. If there was a missing PrivateFrameworks folder, you may have to re-import the SDK using these steps:

1. In the folder C:\Users\(username)\Documents\Embarcadero\Studio\SDKs, where (username) is the logged in user name, delete the relevant iPhoneOS SDK folder (e.g. iPhoneOS17.2.sdk)
2. Delete the SDK from the SDK Manager in Delphi
3. On the Mac, in the ~\PAServer\scratch-dir folder, remove any folders starting with cache-dir
4. In Delphi, re-add the iOS SDK
5. Repeat the steps mentioned earlier for importing Swift frameworks, ensuring that you also follow the manual step involving copying of folders.

I am very grateful for your guidance.
I had done this before, but I had not emptied the "cache" folder on my Mac.
I will empty the "cache" folder on my Mac and try again.
My Mac is just very slow and it takes about 3 hours to transfer files!
I will let you know if it was successful or not after it is finished.

I followed the steps, it didn't make a difference, it gives an error

[DCC Error] E2597 ld: file not found: /System/Library/Frameworks/AppTrackingTransparency.framework/AppTrackingTransparency

If your project requires AppTrackingTransparency, you also need to add that framework to the SDK, as per these instructions.

[kabiri 3]

I have previously compiled the program without this framework in Delphi 11 .
I have no idea what AppTrackingTransparency is used for.
But I added it to the frameworks and it no longer gives an error.

Which program? What libraries is your program using?

I only used admob (from kastri)

Which has changed in the last few weeks, and is now dependent on AppTrackingTransparency. See the updated readme.

I apologize, I had only paid attention to this part.
