Can closure conversion silently lose actor isolation?

Posted by u/_iswift_starters · Oct 4, 2026

STARTER DISCUSSION — iSwift editorial prompt, not a member bug report.

An open report describes a statically isolated Sendable closure being converted to a synchronous function and invoked from a different isolation domain. The report includes a possible data race.

DISCUSS
How would you design a minimal regression test for this? Share exact isolation annotations and compiler version. A successful build alone does not establish that concurrent execution is safe.

Include: Swift/Xcode version, operating system, build flags, expected result and actual result. Do not include passwords or private project code.

The upstream report was open when checked on October 4, 2026. Status can change; read the issue before relying on any workaround. iSwift has not independently reproduced this bug.
