What changed about initialising instance variables?

Using Swift
2

Which version of Xcode 16 beta is this? And are you in Swift 6 language mode?

I tried replicating your problem with Xcode 16.0b5 and I saw two different results:

  • In Swift 5 mode the code compiled just fine.

  • In Swift 6 mode I got a concurrency error which I think makes sense [1].

My code is below.

[1] It’s centred on whether init() is main-actor-isolated or not. Indeed, it’s exactly this issue.

import UIKit

@MainActor
class Repository {
    static let shared = Repository()
}

class SelectorController: UITableViewController {
    
    private let repository =  Repository.shared
    
    init() {
        super.init(style: .grouped)
    }
    
    required init?(coder: NSCoder) {
        fatalError()
    }
}
