Xamarin.Forms: No valid iOS code signing keys found in keychain

Yesterday while creating a new Xamarin.Forms application,  it failed to build for iOS with the following error message:

No valid iOS code signing keys found in keychain

I first thought that there was something wrong with my iOS configuration, but when I tried to create a ‘traditional’ iOS application, it just worked.

On the Xamarin forums I found the following solution that worked for me:

  • Open your Xamarin.Forms projects.
  • Unload the iOS project in Visual Studio.
  • Open the csproj file and search for the following element

<PropertyGroup Condition=" '$(Configuration)|$(Platform)' == 'Debug|iPhoneSimulator' ">
    <CodesignEntitlements>Entitlements.plist</CodesignEntitlements>
</PropertyGroup>

  • Remove ‘Entitlements.plist’ from the ‘CodesignEntitlements’
<PropertyGroup Condition=" '$(Configuration)|$(Platform)' == 'Debug|iPhoneSimulator' ">
<CodesignEntitlements></CodesignEntitlements>
</PropertyGroup>

Podman– Command execution failed with exit code 125

After updating WSL on one of the developer machines, Podman failed to work. When we took a look through Podman Desktop, we noticed that Podman had stopped running and returned the following error message: Error: Command execution failed with exit code 125 Here are the steps we tried to fix the issue: We started by running podman info to get some extra details on what could be wrong: >podman info OS: windows/amd64 provider: wsl version: 5.3.1 Cannot connect to Podman. Please verify your connection to the Linux system using `podman system connection list`, or try `podman machine init` and `podman machine start` to manage a new Linux VM Error: unable to connect to Podman socket: failed to connect: dial tcp 127.0.0.1:2655: connectex: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it. That makes sense as the podman VM was not running. Let’s check the VM: >podman machine list NAME         ...

Cleaner switch expressions with pattern matching in C#

Ever find yourself mapping multiple string values to the same result? Being a C# developer for a long time, I sometimes forget that the C# has evolved so I still dare to chain case labels or reach for a dictionary. Of course with pattern matching this is no longer necessary. With pattern matching, you can express things inline, declaratively, and with zero repetition. A small example I was working on a small script that should invoke different actions depending on the environment. As our developers were using different variations for the same environment e.g.  "tst" alongside "test" , "prd" alongside "prod" .  We asked to streamline this a long time ago, but as these things happen, we still see variations in the wild. This brought me to the following code that is a perfect example for pattern matching: The or keyword here is a logical pattern combinator , not a boolean operator. It matches if either of the specified pattern...
