David Smith<p>Bridging non-ASCII NSMutableStrings from ObjC will be slower at the point of bridging, *but* the String produced as a result will be much faster.</p><p>One particular case this tradeoff can end up not paying off in is if you then bridge the resulting String back to ObjC. If you're in that situation the recommendation is to not double-bridge strings if you can avoid it.</p><p>If you're in any other situation and this tradeoff is impacting your perf, please file a feedback.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/swiftlang" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>swiftlang</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/wwdc25" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>wwdc25</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/objc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>objc</span></a></p>
David Smith<p>Two obscure Swift changes I want to note:</p><p>ASCII String literals bridged to ObjC will produce a different type in the beta OSs. This should generally have no impact (other than greatly improved performance), but code incorrectly treating `NSString *` as `char *` may need to change (e.g. %s format strings). </p><p>A message will be logged in any situation we're applying compatibility workarounds for this, and the workaround will be disabled if you use the latest SDK version.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/swiftlang" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>swiftlang</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/wwdc25" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>wwdc25</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/objc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>objc</span></a></p>
Johannes Brakensiek<p>What kind of worries me is the observation that many <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/GObject" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GObject</span></a> / <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/GNOME" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GNOME</span></a> projects are in a somewhat abondoned state since the overwhelming use of mobile apps and web services around 2012 to 2014. There are some great exemptions like the <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Evolution" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Evolution</span></a> support by <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/RedHat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RedHat</span></a> and all the tools by <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@linuxmint" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>linuxmint</span></a></span>.</p><p>Same is to apply to the <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/ObjC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ObjC</span></a> ecosystem which has seen few new projects since 2015 or so.</p><p><a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/ecosystem" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ecosystem</span></a></p>
