Xamarin.iOS : “Failed to compile the generated registrar code” on Visual Studio for Mac
This content has 2 years. Some of the information in this post may be out of date or no longer work. Please, read this page keeping its age in your mind.If you have recently upgraded your XCode version to 14.0, and installed the XCode command line tools too, you will probably notice some error messages when trying to run your Xamarin.Forms, or iOS application from Visual Studio for Mac. What actually helped me, is this:Navigate to https://developer.apple.com/download/all/ and search for Command Line Tools for Xcode 13.4 and Xcode 13.4. Both downloads are big, the XCode itself around 10GB and the CL Tools are around 1GB, so definitely do not do this on metered connections. Once the downloads are ready, open the XCode.XP file with the Package Archiver, let it extract to downloads, then move it to Applications folder. After that, install CL tools. Follow the installer’s instructions. Boom, it’s solved. Issue reported at: https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-macios/issues/15954

This is probably because the default value of the FontImageSource Color property is white, and you probably want to draw it white. Check if you are giving an explicit value to the Color property. If not, try it.

Please, read this page keeping its age in your mind.Just as Xamarin.Forms is changing to a .NET MAUI, banditoth.Forms.RecurrenceToolkit will also undergo a change. As of today, I do not plan to develop any new functionality in the aforementioned package. Some parts of the package will be developed for .NET MAUI compatibility. You will be able to find the new packages in the future with the banditoth.MAUI prefix, which will also be available on GitHub.I would like to thank you for the more than 2700 downloads.Bug fixes will continue to be made, so if someone actually uses this for a live application, in that case no worries. Let’s look at some statistics. The most popular package was MVVM with a total of 623 downloads. This was followed by the Logging package with 459 downloads. The Multilanguage and Converters packages were similarly successful, with around 430 downloads. I will be back soon with MAUI packages 😉
