September 13, 2024​

Updated language and framework support​

iOS​

Veracode has released version 0.5.0 of Gen IR, the iOS packaging tool, to GitHub and Homebrew. It includes the following new features and improvements:

  • Added PIFSupport library that integrates the Project Interchange Format (PIF) into Gen IR. This new library allows Veracode to better interact with project models from Xcode and SPM, offering a more structured and publicly documented alternative to PBXProject. With this change, Veracode can now discover and decode the PIF cache, which allows Gen IR to better parse and reason about complex project structures and dependencies between targets in a project. Benefits of this change include:

    • Simplified project parsing: PIF’s structure is easier to consume and more robust.
    • Enhanced compatibility: improved handling of dependencies and other existing issues.
    • Future-proofing: aligns with modern development tools and workflows in Xcode and SwiftPM.

  • Support for projects built or generated with Xcode 16.

If you need to downgrade to the previous version, use a new Homebrew formula:

To upgrade your installed Gen IR to the new version, run brew update && brew upgrade
