6.0 Strict Concurrency Warning when KeyPath marked as Sendable

Using Swift

Hi! I'm working with some KeyPath types and Strict Concurrency. I'm seeing some warnings and trying to following along with SE-0418[1]… but I'm not sure I understand how I can make the compiler happy.

Here is a (simple) example:

struct User {
  var name: String
}

let name: KeyPath<User, String> & Sendable = \.name
// warning: Type 'WritableKeyPath<User, String>' does not conform to the 'Sendable' protocol; this is an error in the Swift 6 language mode

My understanding (from SE-0418) is this explicit adoption of Sendable should be ok… is there something I am missing here?

This is building from Xcode 16.0 beta (16A5171c). My swift package requires 6.0 and adds enableExperimentalFeature("StrictConcurrency").

It sounds like the upcoming feature from SE-0418 is not enabled. Try adding .enableUpcomingFeature("InferSendableFromCaptures") to your package manifest

Ahh… correct! That fixes the warning. Thanks!
