why isn't my DEBUG preprocessor macro being recognized objective-c - ios

I took over a project that has several build schemes: demo, release, debug and production. throughout the code.. there are several preprocessor macro if statements ie
#ifdef DEMO
static NSString *const URL_SMART_TAXI = #"http://demo.theapp.com";
#elif PRODUCTION
static NSString *const URL_SMART_TAXI = #"http://prod.theapp.com";
#elif DEBUG
static NSString *const URL_SMART_TAXI = #"http://localhost:8000";
#else
static NSString *const URL_SMART_TAXI = #"http://dev.theapp.com";
#endif
for some reason, this always works when i'm building with a demo scheme or a production one.. but it just doesn't work for debug (whenever I change the scheme and run for debug.. it always skips the debug and goes for the wild card option)..
I looked all over the project and I don't see any special treatment given for demo or production that's not given for debug..
If I run grep -nri %environment% * this is the result:
grep -nri production *

any ideas?
update: + relevant parts of build settings

This is because you're doing "#elif", which is NOT the same thing as "#elifdef" (if such a thing exists).
You should define PRODUCTION, DEBUG and DEMO all at the same time, but set only one to "1" and the others to "0".

Xcode 14.2 producing multiple info.plist

I have a info.plist file I want to use inside my project.
The Location is set to Relative to project
The target membership is checked
I get this error
Multiple commands produce '...appname.app/Info.plist'
Under that I have two children items of that error
Target 'targetname' (project 'targetname') has copy command from 'my own folder/Info.plist' to '/Users/.../Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/project.../Build/Products/Debug-iphoneos/appname.app/Info.plist'
Target 'targetname' (project 'projectname') has process command with output '/Users/.../Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/.../Build/Products/Debug-iphoneos/appname.app/Info.plist'
I tried editing the other info.plist directly, it just gets regenerated
I tried deleting the derived data folder, it just gets regenerated
I added the info.plist to copy bundle resources there are no duplicates
There are no duplicates in compile sources either
Could it be something with

Initializing LwIP causes RTOS to stop working

Good day
The goal:
I am trying to configure FreeRTOS and LwIP so that I can set up MQTT.
I am using a STM32-NucleoF429ZI development board
What I have done:
I am using CubeMX to generate project files and I am using Visual Studio and VisualGDB for compiling and debugging.
I have set up FreeRTOS for the dev board using CMSIS_V2 and Heap_4.
I have set up LwIP with: Static IP and MEM_SIZE of 1024*10
I have kept all standard pinout (i.e. I have note cleared pinouts) of nucleo board
Ive set up an "Ethernet" thread and I am blinking and LED on the ethernet thread and the default thread.
Other than that no other setting has been changed. I did not set the MPU because as far as I can tell, this MCU does not have it.
The problem:
If I comment out the line MX_LWIP_Init();, (which cubeMX puts into the default thread), then the board runs fine and both LED's on both threads blink forever as far as I have tested. However, as soon as I leave MX_LWIP_Init();, FreeRTOS gets stuck as shown in the picture.
This occurs anywhere from 30 seconds to many minutes after powering the board
Please excuse the picture, but it shows where exactly the program is when I pause it. If I resume the debugger and pause it again, it always pauses in the same place.
I have tried moving MX_LWIP_Init(); into main.c with the other init functions and also into the ethernet thread where it should belong. All produce the same error at some point.
I can ping the board once I add MX_LWIP_Init();

I am not sure the cause of this problem, but I have changed from FreeRTOS CMSIS_V2 to CMSIS_V1 and it resolved the issue. I dont know if there is a configuration in CMSIS_V2 that was wrong, or if there is an actual bug, but CMSIS_V1 and LwIP works great now.

How to compile two versions of metal files

I want to support both 10.13 and 10.14 however I want to support fast math on 10.14. I am only able to compile project if I force #define __CIKERNEL_METAL_VERSION__ 200 but this means on 10.13 it will crash. How do I configure the project so it creates 2 metal libraries? So far the result file is default.metallib (compiling using Xcode)
BOOL supportsMetal;
#if TARGET_OS_IOS
supportsMetal = MTLCreateSystemDefaultDevice() != nil; //this forces GPU on macbook to switch immediatelly
#else
supportsMetal = [MTLCopyAllDevices() count] >= 1;
#endif
if (#available(macOS 10.13, *)) {
//only 10.14 fully supports metal with fast math, however there are hackintoshes etc...
if (supportsMetal) {
_kernel = [self metalKernel];
} else {
_kernel = [self GLSLKernel];
}
} else {
_kernel = [self GLSLKernel];
}
if (_kernel == nil) return nil;
METAL file
#include <metal_stdlib>
using namespace metal;
//https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_monochrome_and_RGB_palettes
//https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_luminance
//https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grayscale
//<CoreImage/CIKernelMetalLib.h>
//only if you enable fast math (macOS10.14 or iOS12) otherwise fall back to float4 instead of half4
//forcing compilation for macOS 10.14+//iOS12+
#define __CIKERNEL_METAL_VERSION__ 200
constant half3 kRec709Luma = half3(0.2126, 0.7152, 0.0722);
constant half3 kRec601Luma = half3(0.299 , 0.587 , 0.114);
//constant float3 kRec2100Luma = float3(0.2627, 0.6780, 0.0593);
#include <CoreImage/CoreImage.h>
extern "C" { namespace coreimage {
float lumin601(half3 p)
{
return dot(p.rgb, kRec601Luma);
}
float lumin709(half3 p)
{
return dot(p.rgb, kRec709Luma);
}
half4 thresholdFilter(sample_h image, float threshold)
{
half4 pix = unpremultiply(image);
float luma = lumin601(pix.rgb);
pix.rgb = half3(step(threshold, luma));
return premultiply(pix);
}
}}
XCode 11 supports Metal libraries.
Add a new build target to your project.
Add metal files in compile sources
If you use Core Image add these linker flags. Change deployment targets (ios12+ ) and check for fast math.
To your original project target add new dependencies and copy script
cp "${BUILT_PRODUCTS_DIR}"/*.metallib "${METAL_LIBRARY_OUTPUT_DIR}"
Optional:
Avoiding hard coded strings everywhere in project. Add xconfig file to project
MY_METAL_LIBRARY_NAME_10_13 = Metal_10_13_aaa
MY_METAL_LIBRARY_NAME_10_14 = Metal_10_14_bbb
GCC_PREPROCESSOR_DEFINITIONS = $(inherited) MY_METAL_LIBRARY_NAME_10_13='#"$(MY_METAL_LIBRARY_NAME_10_13)"' MY_METAL_LIBRARY_NAME_10_14='#"$(MY_METAL_LIBRARY_NAME_10_14)"'
Add xconfig as configuration (don't set it for project cause you will end up with double import)
Change PRODUCT_NAME variable of each metal library to a variable
Use preprocesor variables in code
static NSString *const kMetallibExtension = #"metallib";
NSString *const kMetalLibraryOldTarget = MY_METAL_LIBRARY_NAME_10_13; //#"Metal_10_13";
NSString *const kMetalLibraryFastMathTarget = MY_METAL_LIBRARY_NAME_10_14; //#"Metal_10_14";
+ (NSString *)metalLibraryName
{
if (#available(macOS 10.14, *)) {
return kMetalLibraryFastMathTarget;
} else {
return kMetalLibraryOldTarget;
}
//use default
//return #"default";
}

How to implement a compile-time [dispatch] table for AVR?

I have the same prerequisites as Dave Durbin in How can I implement a dynamic dispatch table in C... except my target is AVR. Here are my constraints:
modules are to be picked in a list, much like Linux compiled-in kernel modules
the number of C (can be C++) modules is known at compile-time
modules are to be statically linked (obviously)
I want the table in program memory, not in SRAM
Typically, the table should comprise items of this type:
typedef struct jump_item {
uint16_t function_id;
void (*callback)(void);
} jump_item_t;
I have tried using custom sections as suggested in the answer but then the linker throws an error for an unknown symbol __start_myownsection (whatever section name I use though). Of course since the code targets Linux/GCC. But I think I'm close because avr-gcc actually can use sections, just that I haven't been able to figure out yet how to stack symbols in a user-defined section and actually pointing to the beginning of the table, as well as determine the length of the table at run-time.
How could Art's answer be adapted to AVR?
* EDIT *
I can see at least two ways to achieve what I want using sections, either with functions "attached" to a user-defined section or tables of structures (as defined above) that all will stack up in the user-defined section. My current issues are:
unused variables are optimized away at compile-time!
unused functions are optimized away at link-time due to linker argument -gc-sections, which I need to clean unused functions.
I prefer the second option, something similar to this:
module1.c:
const jump_item_t module1_table[] __attribute__((__progmem__, section("tbl_dispatch"))) =
{
{ 0x02, func11 },
{ 0x03, func12 },
...
};
module2.c:
const jump_item_t module2_table[] __attribute__((__progmem__, section("tbl_dispatch"))) =
{
{ 0x12, func21 },
{ 0x13, func22 },
...
};
Note: indices aren't to be considered relevant.
When all modules define such variables, they're optimized away as there's nowhere any reference to these. They need to stack up in section tbl_dispatch though. So my question falls back to:
How can I tell the compiler from removing variables it "thinks" are unused but only with specific C/C++ modules?
The global command line I'm using so far is as follows:
avr-gcc -g -Wall -mcall-prologues -fshort-enums -Os \
-DF_CPU=8000000 -Wl,-relax -mmcu=... \
*.cpp *.c -o main
* EDIT *
To my disappointment, PROGMEM and custom sections don't go together. I've tried to combine them but I get disseminated jump tables in program memory... when I get these included at all. Fact is not even all tables appear in program memory.
Giving up.
Any idea welcome.
You can definitely make a module system if you write your own custom linker script, and copy what was done for constructors and destructors (ctors and dtors). The linker script below was based on avr5.x from AVR GCC, but I added the dispatch stuff to it.
If you look at the output of the build script in the shell session below, you can see that the dispatch table is set up correctly and has symbols pointing to the start and end of it. The shell session includes all the source code and build scripts that I used to compile this example.
$ ls
avr5-x-modules.ld build.sh kernel.c kernel.h module_foo.c

SORT(*)(.dispatch)
The only practical way I can think of since all my attempts have failed so far is through makefile scripts and menus, much like building Linux Kernel modules: you pick up a series of modules to compile-in and the make script generates header/source files with the dispatch table.
The generated source file is built so as to include references to all of the required functions and variables, preventing the garbage collector from ripping them off at link time. I don't have the details of the implementation, this is just a hint that I might follow though not the simplest form.
A custom section will work, but do not use PROGMEM.
With avr-gcc, PROGMEM adds a section attribute.
Adding another will cause problems.
Unless you work at it, the new section will go into program memory.
You do not need to replace the default linker script,
but you need to add to it to get the start and size of the new section.
In the ld manual, see 3.10.9 Builtin Functions ADDR and SIZE,
3.11 Implicit Linker Scripts, 3.5.4 Source Code Reference.

Removing Logs when releasing iOS app

Currently I am building two apps for my project one in release & another in debug (the only thing that changes are provisioning profiles used to sign and the endpoints) . Because of some policies, I shouldn't be creating ipa files locally. So I use maven to build these two versions (release & debug), based on a script. Because of the same policies, output should be complete removed from the application (NSLog, printf...). I am aware of the preprocessor macros, but I don't want to rely on them, since someone (without knowing) might change them and jeopardise what I want to achieve. So what I want is:
Be able to logout anything I want when I am using my simulator or when I run directly on a real device
When I use maven to build my applications, it will make sure the NSLogs are stripped or disabled.
Maven relies on what's in a remote repository to actually make the build, so if there is a way of disabling this logs during the remote repo commit, it's a solution as well..
Use this macro it will automatically off log on release mode.
Just replace all NSLog with DLog and in future use DLog for logging.
Example : DLog(#"Text : %#",sometext);
#ifdef DEBUG
# define DLog(fmt, ...) NSLog((#"%s [Line %d] " fmt), __PRETTY_FUNCTION__, __LINE__, ##__VA_ARGS__);
#else
# define DLog(...)
#endif
It's an interesting request, but feasible if you're willing to accept a bit of function-call overhead for each log that gets skipped. There is a nice feature inside of the EtPanKit framework that checks if the files that are trying to call the log function match an array of pre-defined classes in your Info.plist file. In addition to being a great debug filter, all you'd have to do at Release time is remove all the keys from the plist or specify a different one in your Release build with no values associated with the LEPLogEnabledFilenames key.
In the interest of preventing link-rot, here's the function itself and the associated macros that make it a bit prettier to call:
#define LEPLogStack(...) LEPLogInternal(__FILE__, __LINE__, 1, __VA_ARGS__)
#define LEPLog(...) LEPLogInternal(__FILE__, __LINE__, 0, __VA_ARGS__)
#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
#import <libgen.h>
#import <time.h>
#import <sys/time.h>
#include <execinfo.h>
#include <pthread.h>
static NSSet * enabledFilesSet = nil;
static pthread_mutex_t lock = PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER;
void LEPLogInternal(const char * filename, unsigned int line, int dumpStack, NSString * format, ...)
{
va_list argp;
NSString * str;
NSAutoreleasePool * pool;
char * filenameCopy;
char * lastPathComponent;
struct timeval tv;
struct tm tm_value;
//NSDictionary * enabledFilenames;
pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init];
pthread_mutex_lock(&lock);
if (enabledFilesSet == nil) {
enabledFilesSet = [[NSSet alloc] initWithArray:[[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] arrayForKey:LEPLogEnabledFilenames]];
}
pthread_mutex_unlock(&lock);
NSString * fn;
fn = [[NSFileManager defaultManager] stringWithFileSystemRepresentation:filename length:strlen(filename)];
fn = [fn lastPathComponent];
if (![enabledFilesSet containsObject:fn]) {
[pool release];
return;
}
va_start(argp, format);
str = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:format arguments:argp];
va_end(argp);
NSString * outputFileName = [[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] stringForKey:LEPLogOutputFilename];
static FILE * outputfileStream = NULL;
if ( ( NULL == outputfileStream ) && outputFileName )
{
outputfileStream = fopen( [outputFileName UTF8String], "w+" );
}
if ( NULL == outputfileStream )
outputfileStream = stderr;
gettimeofday(&tv, NULL);
localtime_r(&tv.tv_sec, &tm_value);
fprintf(outputfileStream, "%04u-%02u-%02u %02u:%02u:%02u.%03u ", tm_value.tm_year + 1900, tm_value.tm_mon + 1, tm_value.tm_mday, tm_value.tm_hour, tm_value.tm_min, tm_value.tm_sec, tv.tv_usec / 1000);
//fprintf(stderr, "%10s ", [[[NSDate date] description] UTF8String]);
fprintf(outputfileStream, "[%s:%u] ", [[[NSProcessInfo processInfo] processName] UTF8String], [[NSProcessInfo processInfo] processIdentifier]);
filenameCopy = strdup(filename);
lastPathComponent = basename(filenameCopy);
fprintf(outputfileStream, "(%s:%u) ", lastPathComponent, line);
free(filenameCopy);
fprintf(outputfileStream, "%s\n", [str UTF8String]);
[str release];
if (dumpStack) {
void * frame[128];
int frameCount;
int i;
frameCount = backtrace(frame, 128);
for(i = 0 ; i < frameCount ; i ++) {
fprintf(outputfileStream, " %p\n", frame[i]);
}
}
if ( outputFileName )
{
fflush(outputfileStream);
}
[pool release];
}
I understand you don't want to rely pre-processor macros, but there is a simple way to remove any NSLog statements using the pre-processor:
Add to your prefix header the following:
#ifndef DEBUG
#define NSLog(...)
#endif
If DEBUG is not defined, then all NSLog statements will removed by the pre-processor throughout the app code.
If DEBUG is not added automatically in your build settings, you can simply add a #define DEBUG statement and comment it out when your build for release.
The same can be done for printf() statements.
I've used this successfully in an app I've released for getting rid of NSLog for release.
You can add a complete log system like this:
#ifndef Logs_h
#define Logs_h
/* Log levels */
#define LOG_LEVEL_NO_LOG 0
#define LOG_LEVEL_ONLY_ERRORS 1
#define LOG_LEVEL_ERROS_AND_WARNINGS 2
#define LOG_LEVEL_LOG_ALL 3
/* Log levels */
#ifdef DEBUG
#define LOG_LEVEL LOG_LEVEL_LOG_ALL /* <-- Change The Log Level here */
#else
#define LOG_LEVEL LOG_LEVEL_NO_LOG /* No logs on release now */
#endif
/* Logs Macros */
#if LOG_LEVEL >= LOG_LEVEL_LOG_ALL
#define DebugLog(fmt, ...) NSLog(#"[Debug] %s [Line %d]: " fmt, __PRETTY_FUNCTION__, __LINE__, ## __VA_ARGS__)
#else
#define DebugLog(...) /* */
#endif
#if LOG_LEVEL >= LOG_LEVEL_ERROS_AND_WARNINGS
#define WarnLog(fmt, ...) NSLog(#"[Warning] %s [Line %d]: " fmt, __PRETTY_FUNCTION__, __LINE__, ## __VA_ARGS__)
#else
#define WarnLog(...) /* */
#endif
#if LOG_LEVEL >= LOG_LEVEL_ONLY_ERRORS
#define ErrorLog(fmt, ...) NSLog(#"[Error] %s [Line %d]: " fmt, __PRETTY_FUNCTION__, __LINE__, ## __VA_ARGS__)
#else
#define ErrorLog(...) /* */
#endif
#endif
