Swift: Xcode 16 - Library not loaded: @rpath/libSwiftSyntax.dylib

[weisunOW]

We recently updated our iOS project to build with Xcode 16, swift 5 mode (SWIFT_VERSION = 5). However our Azure CodeQL pipeline started to fail on database creation with Library not loaded: @rpath/libSwiftSyntax.dylib error for both WidgetExtension and IntentsExtension.

We've tried different CodeQL versions: 2.18.0, 2.19.1, 2.19.2, all failed with the same error. The same command worked when we built with Xcode 15.4, unfortunately we cannot fallback to Xcode 15.4 now.

Here is the database create command, please note that .codeql.yml is currently empty.
codeql database create -l swift codeql-database --threads 0 --codescanning-config .codeql.yml --command \"${WORKSPACE_DIR}/Scripts/ci/az-build-for-codeql.sh\"

The --command build script runs xcodebuild command below, the build script itself builds correctly without CodeQL cli.
xcodebuild -workspace App.xcworkspace -scheme Application -derivedDataPath Build/DerivedData -destination "OS=18.0,name=iPhone 16 Pro Max"

Here is the failure part of the build log, sorry we cannot share the full log due to our policy. The log suggests that libSwiftSyntax.dylib cannot be found in the listed paths, however I'm sure that libSwiftSyntax.dylib come as part of Xcode 16 under /Application/Xcode.app/Content/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/lib/swift/host. Please advise if we have missed anything?

@weisunOW thanks for reporting this!
Currently we do not support scanning Swift code when using Xcode16, but we are working on adding support. We are currently investigating this and will post an update when we have something you can test.

[weisunOW]

Hi @coadaflorin, I tried the new v2.20.0 CodeQL CLI, I'm still seeing the same error.

[coadaflorin]

Hi @weisunOW, we had to accelerate the release of 2.20.0 to get some updates out and that meant we did not get a chance to merge in the changes that add support for Xcode 16 / Swift 6.0. We will add these in the next release which is currently estimated shortly after the new year. Thank you for your patience and feel free to tag me if you have more questions on the topic.

[cbieniakTU]

Hi @coadaflorin, We're seeing the same issue on Xcode 16 using 2.20.1.

[weisunOW]

Hi @coadaflorin @cbieniakTU, we confirmed that the workaround github/codeql-action#2506 (comment) by @jsm174 worked for us.

[redsun82]

Hi all! I was able to reproduce this locally and I am working on a solution. In the meantime, the workaround mentioned above is probably the best way to get around this issue.

[redsun82]

Sorry, I closed this by mistake. We do however have a change that should fix this coming up in the next release later this week, so stay tuned 👍

[stefanrenne]

@redsun82 any update on this issue? is resolving this issue also in scope for microsoft devops?

[redsun82]

A fix for what we were able to reproduce is included in the latest 2.20.3 release that was made available on the 24th of January.

[coadaflorin]

@stefanrenne yes, they both use the same CodeQL engine, so as soon as the devops platform picks up the latest version as suggested above, the problem should be fixed.

[coadaflorin]

@stefanrenne can you confirm if this fixed your problem? I will close this issue as I haven't seen any follow-up from anyone that things are not working. If you are still seeing this issue on a recent version feel free to reopen this ticket.

[jsm174]

I just attempted to remove the hack from our pipeline, and it failed as well with the same error. It looks like it pulled 2.20.4.

[stefanrenne]

@coadaflorin I just tried 2.20.5 on devops and it gives me the same error as before, see attached logs

[redsun82]

👋 I'm sorry this was not fixed the first time around 🙇

Our first fix consisted in skipping tracing for the appintentsnltrainingprocessor which is what seemed causing the problems in our internal reproduction tests. However, the problem persisted for the related appintentsmetadataprocessor binary.

We've now added on our main branch a fix that adds the new offending binary (and another related appshortcutstringsprocessor one) to our exclusion list of tracing on macOS, and also introduced a configuration mechanism for it, by providing regex patterns in a CODEQL_TRACER_RELOCATION_EXCLUDE environment variable. This will allow to exclude further binaries this problem may arise with.

The above will land in a release around the 4th of April. In the meantime, the workaround described in github/codeql-action#2506 (comment) is your best bet.

[stefanrenne]

@redsun82 just tested codeql bundle 2.21.0 with Xcode 16.2 in ADO and it still fails for me, as requested by @aegilops I created a new issue -> #19284
