AppCode 2022.2 helps you analyze the structure of your application by generating UML class diagrams for Objective-C and Swift. It also improves code documentation, generation, and formatting, and is aligned with the latest Xcode versions and new Swift language features. The Kotlin Multiplatform Mobile plugin for AppCode expands the variety of the supported projects to help you develop applications for Android and iOS more productively.
AppCode lets you generate UML diagrams for Objective-C and Swift. The diagrams help you analyze the structure of your application by showing types, along with their connections, methods, and fields.
A set of features added in Swift 5.5 for concurrency interoperability with Objective-C are now supported in AppCode 2022.2. From the user’s perspective, this means:
_Nullable_result
and __attribute__((swift_async_error(...)))
are handled correctly.
AppCode 2022.2 comes with support for
existential any
from Swift 5.6. This includes:
There's now enhanced modules handling in AppCode 2022.2:
extern
modules are now resolved correctly.extern
module map are now supported.AppCode 2022.2 improves code documentation rendering. It removes incorrect formatting, fixes content ordering, no longer loses data, and removes redundant spaces and empty lines.
AppCode 2022.2 now applies basic syntax highlighting when showing documentation comments in the Quick Documentation popup or in reader mode.
AppCode 2022.2 can generate initializers for Swift actors
.
Actor-isolated properties are no longer suggested when auto-generating
equals
and hash
in an actor
’s extension.
The inspection settings in Preferences | Editor | Inspections now visualize the highlighting style. When you want to change how an inspection appears in the editor, you can set it up using the new Highlighting in editor drop-down menu, which conveniently displays all available highlighting styles.
The Kotlin Multiplatform Mobile (KMM) plugin for AppCode helps you develop applications for Android and iOS using the unified Gradle project model. The new update expands the variety of the supported projects.
Previously, AppCode only worked with CocoaPods KMM projects. In this version, projects with the KMM framework attached via the :<kmm_library_name>:embedAndSignAppleFrameworkForXcode
Gradle task are also supported.
Either approach will make the cross-resolve from Swift to Kotlin available for the linked KMM libraries. The unified project view for such projects correctly displays both Gradle and Xcode projects in one common tree.
