Apple Watch App - Invalid Swift entry point data

For iOS 14 and watchOS 7.0, I completely recoded and modernized my app using Swift (was Objective C). I am almost done and am most proud of the job, but I have this issue that I need to fix on the Apple Watch app. I am not able to transfer data to the Apple Watch from the iPhone and get the following console messages. (The [***:xxxxxx] are my modification of the console messages.). I am guessing that the first 2 messages are the thing I need to fix and I need to fix this issue before I submit the app.

Well, I fiddled with it and it works now. I'm not exactly sure what I did, but the Watch App component of my app is working. Also, I cancelled my request for tech help.

I am also getting this same error message - Invalid Swift

Code Block 2020-09-25 19:35:46.281502-0400 XXXX WatchKit Extension[1012:18958] [default] lookupMainFuncAddressInMachHeader:71: Invalid Swift entry point data

lookupMainFuncAddressInMachHeader:77: Swift entry point addres could not be determined.

And when the program then tries to access the WatchKit ExtensionDelegate I get nil

Perhaps this is a bug. I have a code request made to Apple for help. Used one of my 'get out of jail cards' to do it. We'll see what happens.

Do you have WKExtensionDelegateClassName with value $(PRODUCT_MODULE_NAME).ExtensionDelegate in your extension's Info.plist file? And the delegate adaptor in the App:

Code Block @main
struct Mypp: App {
   @WKExtensionDelegateAdaptor(ExtensionDelegate.self) var extensionDelegate

Latter produces a SwiftLint warning though:

Code Block Weak Delegate Violation: Delegates should be weak to avoid reference cycles. (weak_delegate)

Adding weak produces an error. Don't know what to do with this, so currently I have to live with the warning.

AndyJJ, yes, I have WKExtensionDelegateClassName with value $(PRODUCTMODULENAME).ExtensionDelegate in the extension's Info.plist, but I do not have the delegate adaptor in the AppDelegate. I created a project from scratch and added the watch target and it didn't generate a delegate adaptor. I'm not sure where that comes from. I am not using SwiftUI, just Swift.

Same here. My app is built by objective-c and it used to work well.

Same error here:

lookupMainFuncAddressInMachHeader:77: Swift entry point addres could not be determined.

Only started occurring since upgrade to Xcode 12.

hey, SpaceMan, how did you fiddle it to make it work? can you share your solution? I think this suppose a serious issue because many ppl stuck with this after upgrading to watchOS 7 and Xcode 12.

Any updates how to solve it? Any workaround?

I resolved the console messages by adding the new watchOS 7 App struct. The WKExtensionDelegate protocol conformance isn't required, but I added it for completeness. Move code from your extension delegate to your new App struct.

Code Block import SwiftUI
@main
structMyWatchApp: App {
  @WKExtensionDelegateAdaptor(MyWatchAppDelegate.self) var myWatchAppDelegate
   
  @SceneBuilder var body: some Scene {
    WindowGroup {
      ContentView()
    }
  }
}
class myWatchAppDelegate: NSObject, WKExtensionDelegate {  
}

Hey guys, I had this same issue but referred to https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/53659 , after which the Watch app works as expected. I still get the entry point error but it doesn't seem to affect anything.
