Swift Concurrency is a significant topic covered in various sessions at WWDC 2024. Here are some key points and sessions related to Swift Concurrency:
-
Migrate your app to Swift 6:
- This session discusses the transition to Swift 6, focusing on concurrency improvements. It highlights how Swift 6 helps protect against race conditions and introduces data race safety by default, turning potential issues into compile-time errors. The session also covers the use of actors and async/await to manage concurrency effectively.
- Migrate your app to Swift 6 (08:58) discusses concurrency issues and solutions when adopting Swift's concurrency features.
-
A Swift Tour: Explore Swift’s features and design:
- This session provides an overview of Swift's concurrency model, including tasks, async/await, and actors. It emphasizes the importance of data race protection and how Swift 6 enhances concurrency handling.
- A Swift Tour: Explore Swift’s features and design (22:32) covers the basics of writing concurrent code in Swift.
-
What’s new in Swift:
- This session highlights the advancements in Swift 6, particularly focusing on data race safety and concurrency improvements. It explains how Swift 6 achieves data race safety by default, improving app security and reducing debugging time.
- What’s new in Swift (26:11) discusses data race safety and concurrency in Swift 6.
These sessions provide a comprehensive understanding of Swift Concurrency, especially with the new features and improvements introduced in Swift 6.
Go further with Swift Testing
Learn how to write a sweet set of (test) suites using Swift Testing’s baked-in features. Discover how to take the building blocks further and use them to help expand tests to cover more scenarios, organize your tests across different suites, and optimize your tests to run in parallel.
Migrate your app to Swift 6
Experience Swift 6 migration in action as we update an existing sample app. Learn how to migrate incrementally, module by module, and how the compiler helps you identify code that’s at risk of data races. Discover different techniques for ensuring clear isolation boundaries and eliminating concurrent access to shared mutable state.
What’s new in Swift
Join us for an update on Swift. We’ll briefly go through a history of Swift over the past decade, and show you how the community has grown through workgroups, expanded the package ecosystem, and increased platform support. We’ll introduce you to a new language mode that achieves data-race safety by default, and a language subset that lets you run Swift on highly constrained systems. We’ll also explore some language updates including noncopyable types, typed throws, and improved C++ interoperability.
