MacOS 15 / Xcode 16: asyncWrite chokes at compile time

[mmcnamara-oliveriq]

How frequently does the bug occur?

Always

Description

The use of asyncWrite makes Xcode 16 unhappy upon compilation. This seems to be the case whether using Swift 5 or 6. Simple example:

func asyncDeleteAllDevices(config: Realm.Configuration) async throws {
        let realm = try await Realm(configuration: config)

        try await realm.asyncWrite {
            let allDevices = realm.objects(Device.self)
            realm.delete(allDevices)
        }
}

Presumably it's some fallout from the new concurrency checks. Swap to .write and no problems compiling.

Naive workaround that circumvents the compile problem:

extension Realm {
    func asyncWrite<T>(_ block: @escaping (Realm) throws -> T) async throws -> T {
        return try await withCheckedThrowingContinuation { continuation in
            DispatchQueue(label: "xx.yy.zz").async {
                do {
                    let realm = try Realm(configuration: self.configuration)
                    try realm.write {
                        let result = try block(realm)
                        continuation.resume(returning: result)
                    }
                } catch {
                    continuation.resume(throwing: error)
                }
            }
        }
    }
