Xcode 8.3中损坏的游乐场

Question

Since I started working Xcode 8.2 (and 8.3 lately), playgrounds are completely broken for me.

When opening a playground I see the message "Failed to launch process. Error returned in reply: Connection Interrupted"

Complete re-installation of Xcode or removing / re-creating /private/tmp folder (as suggested by some other posts) did not help.

Did someone encounter a similar problem? Are there other known work-arounds? ( http://www.openradar.me/31296836 )

Here is some sample output from CoreSimulator.log

Answer 1

Note by the creator of Timing: this issue no longer occurs as of Timing 1.8.1 and Timing 2.0.

iOS playgrounds work ok in Xcode 8.3.x on my MacBook, but I got the launching simulator errors on my MBP. The MacBook is for travelling, so has a minimal set of apps. In particular, it has fewer app icons in the status menu bar.

So on my MBP, I quit all of those that aren't on the MB, and hey presto, playgrounds ran! I started the apps one by one, and it was Timing that brought back the launching simulator error — closing the menu bar icon fixed it again, even though Timing app itself was still running.

Not picking on Timing especially; could be any quick-access app in your menu bar.

Before this, I had reinstalled Sierra, but not a clean install. That would've been the next step.

退出Xcode defaults write com.apple.dt.xcode IDEPlaygroundDisableSimulatorAlternateFramebuffer -bool YES后，苹果工程师在终端下面的命令下运行时提供的解决方法， defaults write com.apple.dt.xcode IDEPlaygroundDisableSimulatorAlternateFramebuffer -bool YES

Answer 3

Have you tried deleting your derived data via XCode?

Shift+Alt+Command+K

OR the fastest way is open terminal and past the following:

rm -rf ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData

Also ensure that there are no simulators or other versions of a playground running in the background.

Answer 4

（不幸的是）我通过全新安装macOS解决了这个问题（当然，这不是解决问题的正确方法，但我需要尽快让游乐场工作）。

Answer 5

tl;dr My problems went away after checking if all simulators were installed (in Xcode Settings > Components), closing all projects which were heavily using IBDesignable and restarting the playground.

I don't know if this helps in any way but might as well post it;

The first thing I checked was if I had all iOS simulators installed in Xcode. Surprisingly updating to Xcode 8.3 also removed my iOS 10.0 simulator; reinstalled the simulator and reopened Xcode.

Afterwards did a search on google and found a similar question .

After reading the question I remembered I had an other project open in which I was heavily using IBDesignable for testing purposes. Closing this project and restarting the playground solved my problems.

This might have had nothing to do with the playgrounds, but it did fixed my problems.
