Newbie - can GRDB run on iPadOS Swift Playgrounds

[gojyuan]

My apologies if this post is too much detail.

I am a programmer with 37 years experience - only 12 months learning Swift. I started with iPAD ( main device ) Swift Playgrounds and wanted my app to run on both iPAD and iPhone. Initial apps were using SwiftData but I had reasonable experience with Sqlite so wanted to upgrade

Purchased MacMini and installed Xcode and GRDB - works very well. Having issues getting a Developer License so had to go back to iPAD Playgrounds.

I cannot import the GRDB Package. Have tried with different versions 7.6.1 being the latest. Sometimes I get the message - Could not resolve package graph. Cannot continue.
Then sometimes Three options are presented - GRDB, GRDB-Dynamic and GRDBSqlite. I have tried each option separately and also combined ( with GRDBSqlite) and get message —Swift Package Target GRDB is linked as a static library…—

I am running the latest releases on both MacOS and iPadOS.

Any help much appreciated
Regards
Linda

Hello @gojyuan,

I have tried each option separately and also combined ( with GRDBSqlite) and get message —Swift Package Target GRDB is linked as a static library…—

You have truncated the only interesting part: the error message. 🤷‍♂️

Anyway, I'm not sure GRDB can run on iPad Playgrounds: #467, #1115, maybe other issues (search for iPad, for example).

Thank you for your fast response.
I did see the earlier message but it was for different modules so I thought it may not apply. I do understand it may not work for Swift Playgrounds.

i have attached the full message but it is deceiving about what option was selected - the same error seemed to appear when each of the options was individually selected ie GRDB / GRDB-Dynamic or GRDBSqlite

Sorry as a sidenote, there is only a toggle in Playgrounds to turn off which version is not included.

Well, I don't know what's happening. Anyway, you should pick only one GRDB module, not multiple ones.

Thank you, I understand that I cannot use GRDB in Playgrounds.

Just to confirm, I only selected one GRDB mode and the same message was displayed regardless of the option selected.

I won’t pursue this any more. Your help and support is very much appreciated.

Yes, sorry there wasn't any progress on that side. You can still report the missing feature at https://feedbackassistant.apple.com. Maybe Apple will finish their job one day.
