Hi,I've a CKQuerySubscription to monitor specific changes in the public database.I've set the notificationInfo.shouldBadge = true to increment the badge value whenever the corresponding push notification is delivered.However, I couldn't find a way to decrement the badge value as the notification is read.Since iOS 11, both CKMarkNotificationsReadOperation and CKModifyBadgeOperation are deprecated, but the documentation doesn't specify a replacement.How can I mark the notification as read and decrement the badge value?Thanks.

Hi,
On iPadOS, for three column layouts, is it possible to change the display mode in SwiftUI, like in the session "Build for iPad" (at 4'51)?
Also, is it possible to have 3 active columns on 9.7-inch iPad in landscape (with a narrower middle column so that the righthand column has enough room for content)?
Thanks
Hi,
I have configured my UISplitViewController to show three columns next to each other when the iPad is in landscape mode:
[...]
splitViewController.preferredDisplayMode = .twoBesideSecondary
splitViewController.preferredSplitBehavior = .tile
However, when the iPad is in portrait mode, I'd like the same behavior as the .automatic display mode and split behavior.
Right now, it shows the three columns even in portrait mode, which doesn't look right. Is it a bug or is there some way to set the display mode and split behavior for different iPad orientations?
Thanks.
Hi,
Xcode warns me that NSPersistentContainer, NSManagedObjectContext, NSPersistentHistoryTransaction and NSPersistentHistoryToken are non-Sendable types and therefore cannot cross actor boundaries.
These warnings occur even when I use @preconcurrency import CoreData (only works with Xcode 14.0 Beta, in Xcode 13.4.1, it says '@preconcurrency' attribute on module 'CoreData' is unused)
I understand that types in Core Data have yet to be marked as Sendable when it makes sense.
Although NSPersistentHistoryTransaction, and NSPersistentHistoryToken are reference types, they should qualify to be marked as Sendable in the future since these are immutable types, am I right?
NSPersistentContainer provides variables and methods like viewContext and newBackgroundContext(). It would make sense that this type is thread-safe. However, I'm not sure about it, especially regarding its loadPersistentStores(completionHandler:) method. Is NSPersistentContainer (and its subclass NSPersistentCloudKitContainer) thread-safe and should it be marked as Sendable in the future?
The case of and NSManagedObjectContext confuses me the most. Indeed, it has both thread-safe methods like perform(_:) and thread-unsafe methods like save(). Still, it should be possible to cross actor boundaries. Would such a "partially thread-safe" type quality to be marked as Sendable? If not, how can it cross actor boundaries?
The reason I'm asking these questions is that I have a CoreDataStack type.
It has mutable variables, such as var lastHistoryToken: NSPersistentHistoryToken?, needs to perform work without blocking the main thread, such as writing the token to a file, has async methods, uses notification observers, and needs to be marked as Sendable to be used by other controllers running on different actors.
Since this type is related to back-end work, I made it an Actor. This type exposes the persistent container, and a method to create new background threads.
However, I need to explicitly annotate all methods using await context.perform { ... } as nonisolated in this actor. Not doing so causes a data race to be detected at runtime. Is this a bug, and is making a Core Data stack an Actor the proper way to do it or is there a better solution?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
