Unable to load standard library with Tauri

[lok52]

When building a Tauri project I get the following error:

Caused by:

Looks like something is wrong with environment setup and probably completely related to Tauri itself. But, maybe someone knows how to solve it?

Can you make a reproduction repo? I'm not quite sure what's going on here.

I followed the official guide using create-tauri-app with default template. You can reproduce these commands locally:

projects > yarn create tauri-app --alpha
yarn create v1.22.19

success Installed "create-tauri-app@3.2.1" with binaries:
      - create-tauri-app
✔ Project name · tauri-test
✔ Choose which language to use for your frontend · TypeScript / JavaScript - (pnpm, yarn, npm)
✔ Choose your package manager · yarn
✔ Choose your UI template · Svelte - (https://svelte.dev/)
✔ Choose your UI flavor · TypeScript
✔ Would you like to setup the project for mobile as well? · yes

Template created! To get started run:
  cd tauri-test
  yarn
  yarn tauri android init
  yarn tauri ios init

For Desktop development, run:
  yarn tauri dev

For Android development, run:
  yarn tauri android dev

For iOS development, run:
  yarn tauri ios dev

✨  Done in 19.74s.

Then just:

  cd tauri-test
  yarn
  yarn tauri ios init
  yarn tauri ios dev

And the error appears

[Brendonovich]

It works fine for me - probably because my Rust target is aarch64-apple-ios-sim. Gonna talk about this with the Tauri team.

[lok52]

Did you use a machine with M1 chip?

[Brendonovich]

Yeah M1 pro

Looks like I found the problem. The following command invoked by swift-rs produced the error:

ios-api > swift build -c debug --scratch-path /Users/leonidtyurin/projects/tauri-test/src-tauri/target/x86_64-apple-ios/debug/build/tauri-b8a991d93d8a93f2/out/swift-rs/Tauri -Xswiftc -sdk -Xswiftc /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS16.2.sdk -Xswiftc -target -Xswiftc x86_64-apple-ios16.0

But, if I change sdk path variable (/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS16.2.sdk -> /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneSimulator16.2.sdk) everything works fine:

Build complete! (8.52s)

So, I guess problem is somewhere here in the build.rs file.

[lok52]

So, it incorrectly infers SDK path for simulator

[lok52]

I think this PR fixes the issue, but the Tauri does not include it, yet :)

[Brendonovich]

Looks like this is rectified over on Tauri's end :)
