Hi, not sure if this was already notified but Xcode 15.0.1 contains a linker bug that affects C++ projects https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode-release-notes/xcode-15_1-release-notes#Linking at runtime on macOS <= 12. This caught us by surprise, refs https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/219893#issuecomment-2209313109. We are now forcing the agents to use >= 15.1 that contains the fix.
Image rollout completed. 15.2 is now the default Xcode on macOS 13.
Breaking changes
Default Xcode will be changed to 15.2 on macOS 13 Ventura
Target date
The propagation will start on July, 15 and take 2-3 days
The motivation for the changes
New minor Xcode releases for this version are no longer expected; the most popular among users is the latest available version of the IDE. We would like to provide images with the latest stable updates as default ones and removed old patch version as per our guidelines.
Possible impact
If you use the default Xcode version and your project is not compatible with Xcode 15.2 your build can be broken.
Platforms affected
Runner images affected
Mitigation ways
Please consider switching Xcode in runtime to the version that you need to build an app. The following snippet can be used to switch Xcode:
