Why can't SwiftUI state be changed in the middle of view updates?
I have arrived at a certain architectural solution for my SwiftUI code which is helped by, in certain situations, modifying the state while the body is being evaluated. Of course, I am always open to realizing that a given solution may be creating difficulties precisely because it is fundamentally ill-advised. However, in this post I won't attempt to explain the details of my architecture or justify my reasoning regarding wanting to change the state in the middle of a view update. I just want to ask, why exactly is it prohibited? Is it not rather like normal recursion, which can of course produce infinite loops if done wrong but which is perfectly logically sound as long as the recursing function eventually stabilizes?

Passkey from my macOS Credential Provider Extension is not being offered by AutoFill
I am developing a Mac app which provides a Credential Provider extension and I'm having trouble with passkey integration. I wrote here about the issue I'm having with the iOS app. On the Mac I'm experiencing a different issue. As opposed to the iOS app (where I'm not even able to use my extension to create a new passkey in the first place) on the Mac I'm able to use my extension to create a passkey. I save the credential identity into the system AutoFill suggestions store without error. The problem is that when I attempt to authenticate on the same site the system does not offer my app's credential as a suggestion. Standard passwords are working fine. Can anyone help me understand how I can troubleshoot this type of problem? Thanks! -Jeremy

iOS Credential Provider Extension Not Offered When Creating Passkeys
I'm developing an iOS app that contains a Credential Provider Extension, and I want it to support passkeys. I've set the ProvidesPasskeys key to YES in the Info.plist of the extension, and in the CredentialProviderViewController I've implemented: func prepareCredentialList( for serviceIdentifiers: [ASCredentialServiceIdentifier] ) func provideCredentialWithoutUserInteraction( for credentialRequest: ASCredentialRequest ) func prepareInterfaceToProvideCredential( for credentialRequest: ASCredentialRequest ) func prepareInterface( forPasskeyRegistration registrationRequest: ASCredentialRequest ) Standard password autofill suggestions that I have added to the system store are presented to me when I arrive to the corresponding login page, and the autofill flow succeeds via my extension. When I attempt to create a new passkey on my iPhone, whether it be in Safari on a website that supports passkeys (e.g. google.com) or within a native app that supports the creation of passkeys (e.g. PayPal), I am not given the option to create a passkey using my extension. The only option that is provided to me is the builtin Keychain option. On the "Settings->Passwords->Password Options" page I have "AutoFill Passwords and Passkeys" switch on and in the section titled "USE PASSWORDS AND PASSKEYS FROM:". I have selected both my app and "iCloud Passwords & Keychain". If I uncheck "iCloud Passwords & Keychain" and then attempt to create a passkey then I am shown a system sheet which tells me to go to the settings page to "choose how to manage passkeys". Any ideas on how to troubleshoot this situation? Thanks very much! -Jeremy
