iCloud has become a real nightmare when I try to build something in Swift Playground and open it also on Xcode on a Mac. On iPad I was constantly reminded of conflicts, saying that the file is edited elsewhere, while in fact it was just I leave the Xcode window open. Sometimes it just revert to an older version. It is really annoying.
- threeseed 3y agoThis has nothing to do with iCloud. It's an issue with Xcode/Swift Playground not supporting concurrent access to a shared project. Any app on any platform that doesn't support this use case will exhibit similar behaviour.
- andybak 3y agoYeah. But also no. iCloud most definitely adds to the problem.
- threeseed 3y agoYou would have exactly the same issue with Google Drive or Dropbox. Changing a shared resource in two apps at the same time will usually cause conflicts unless the app has been specifically designed to support this collaborative style use case.
- andybak 3y agoThere's different ways to handle a failure.
