macCatalyst app: Sentry >= 8.11 hangs on launch

[gabors]

Platform

macOS

Installed

Swift Package Manager

Version

8.11

Steps to Reproduce

Create a UIKit macCatalyst app with Xcode 14 or Xcode 15.
Make sure Notifications are disabled for this app in macOS Settings.
Add Sentry Swift Package v 8.11 or 8.12. 8.10 still works fine.
Integrate Sentry to start on app launch.
Launch the app.

App hangs on launch.

`SentrySDK.start { options in
options.dsn = Configuration.sentry.dsn
options.environment = Configuration.sentry.env
options.releaseName = BuildInfo.current.version.description
options.maxBreadcrumbs = 128
options.attachStacktrace = true
options.enableSwizzling = false
options.enableNetworkTracking = false
options.enableAutoPerformanceTracing = false
options.enableCoreDataTracing = false
options.enableAppHangTracking = false
options.enableWatchdogTerminationTracking = false
options.enableCaptureFailedRequests = false
}

    if let user {
        let su = Sentry.User(userId: user.id.description)
        su.email = user.email
        su.username = user.displayName
        SentrySDK.setUser(su)
    }

    SentrySDK.configureScope { scope in
        scope.setTags(self.createSentryTags())
    }`

Expected Result

Expecting to launch

Actual Result

Hangs if Notifications are disabled.
If Notifications are enabled, app launches fine.

Duplicate of #3277.
Please follow the other issue for updates.

@brustolin is there a workaround currently so we can use Sentry 8.11 and newer?

[gabors]

@brustolin I do not think this is necessarily the same issue as #3277
When I run the iOS target of my app, which shares the same code base as the macCatalyst app I do not get the app hanging on startup. App starts up just fine on iOS 17 sim with Sentry SDK 8.12

Hello @gabors,

Does the app hang for a while but eventually resume running, or does it freeze forever?
#3277 was an edge case that also doesn't happen all the time. Maybe this is why you haven't seen it happening on the device simulator.

In any case, I'll take another look at this one

The catalyst app freezes every launch and does not eventually unfreeze. Just stays hanging.
Thanks for looking into this.

Hello @gabors.
Can you update to the new SDK version 8.13.0 to see if the problem persist for you?

Hi @brustolin Just tried 8.13 and so far so good! Mac Catalyst app no long hangs on launch!

Awesome. I will close this issue. Let me know if this happens again.
