flutter inappwebview warning in flutter - ios

Question

i'm implementing a youtube player in my flutter app and when i run it the build will fail and it throws deprication error.
i'm currently using macbook mid 2012, so i can not use latest version of x code. my current version is at Version 12.4 . so in order to use flutter for ios i'm using flutter 2.5.
so now when i try to use youtube player it doesn't build the app.
Xcode build done. 43.0s
Failed to build iOS app
Error output from Xcode build:

Could not build the application for the simulator.
Error launching application on iPhone 12 Pro Max.
the package i'm using is youtube_player_flutter: ^8.0.0. the message indicates to in app web view.
if #available(iOS 10.0, *) {
configuration.ignoresViewportScaleLimits = options.ignoresViewportScaleLimits
var dataDetectorTypes = WKDataDetectorTypes.init(rawValue: 0)
for type in options.dataDetectorTypes {

}
configuration.dataDetectorTypes = dataDetectorTypes
configuration.mediaTypesRequiringUserActionForPlayback = options.mediaPlaybackRequiresUserGesture ? .all : []
} else {
// Fallback on earlier versions
configuration.mediaPlaybackRequiresUserAction = options.mediaPlaybackRequiresUserGesture
}
and in app web view options
if #available(iOS 10.0, *) {
realOptions["mediaPlaybackRequiresUserGesture"] = configuration.mediaTypesRequiringUserActionForPlayback == .all
realOptions["ignoresViewportScaleLimits"] = configuration.ignoresViewportScaleLimits
realOptions["dataDetectorTypes"] = Util.getDataDetectorTypeString(type: configuration.dataDetectorTypes)
} else {
realOptions["mediaPlaybackRequiresUserGesture"] = configuration.mediaPlaybackRequiresUserAction
}
i uncommented the platform: ios, '9.0' and replace at the end with
post_install do |installer|
installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|
flutter_additional_ios_build_settings(target)
target.build_configurations.each do |config|
config.build_settings['IPHONEOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET'] = '9.0'
end
end
end
replacing these worked the other error (which is not included in this question) but it doesn't seem to work for these. how can i fix this? i haven't used xcode before so.

Answer 1

I'm facing this issue since last 2 days.
You don't need to download the X-code-14 version.
just open X-code and run the project it's showing an error then click on the
error and tap fix.

Answer 2

If you cannot have update the Xcode just replace every part of code inside ios/Classes/MyCookieManager.swift:
if #available(iOS 16.0, *) {
domain = domainUrl.host()
} else {
domain = domainUrl.host
}
with
domain = domainUrl.host

Answer 3

You just need to update your xcode version to 14 and that's all :)
