Xcode crashes when installing/importing text files to physical device after build succeeds (RangeException)

Question

My app contains over 200 text files (all 62 MB). After build succeeds and Xcode tries to install the project on my physical device (iPhone 6), it quits suddenly when it begins to transfer the text files (I know because they appear on the Xcode top status bar). When trying to run the project with fewer files (6 text files), it does not crash.

I tried to delete the project derived data, restart xcode and macbook, and delete the app on the iPhone, but the same always happened. Also, I have more than 11 GB available in my iPhone.

However, it runs with no problems on Simulater.

Error Code:      0x02000148
Trap Number:     133

The exception thrown is RangeException, though it builds successfully and begin to install it on the connected device, during which the crash took place.

Any Idea to prevent this?

Report it to Apple: https://bugreport.apple.com/web/ This is an excellent use case and you should have no trouble sending Apple a reproducible example. — matt, Jul 18 '18 at 21:37
@matt Thanks. I did as you told, but I don't think they will response or react soon. — Ali_Habeeb, Jul 21 '18 at 15:30
They probably won't, but the point is, this is not a question we can answer, it's an issue in Xcode itself. For now, the only solution is, don't do that. I can think of various experiments you might try as workarounds, but so can you, and none of them would be an answer because I'd just be guessing something to try. — matt, Jul 21 '18 at 15:36
First thing I'd try is updating to Xcode 10 beta. Does the problem still exist there? — matt, Jul 21 '18 at 15:37
Second thing I'd try is arranging the text files in some other way. You have not said how they are arranged now, so it's impossible for me to specific (in fact, your question gave basically no info about your project: "contains over 200 text files" is very vague). For example, are they at the base level of your app bundle? If so, don't do that; put them in a folder reference so that only _one_ thing needs to be copied (the folder). Here's how to make a folder reference: https://stackoverflow.com/a/48758433/341994 — matt, Jul 21 '18 at 15:39
@matt I have updated Xcode to 9.4.1 yesterday, and the problem still persists. In fact, It seems to be slower! Regarding the text files, I was just thinking of the way they are stored that this might be the problem. They are basically data files (Arabic text, each ranging from few KB to nearly 2 MB in size) from which I can retrieve information to put in a tableView. I put them in a blue folder instead of yellow one (I thought it might be easier to loop through them this way, and add more similar files manually). — Ali_Habeeb, Jul 21 '18 at 17:55
I still think that number of the files matters, because the app runs peacefully when they are less than 10 files. My account is free, so maybe the other paid accounts have more advantages over the free ones (allow for more files, for example)? — Ali_Habeeb, Jul 21 '18 at 17:59

It turns out that the filenames of the text files were too long (most have more than 80 characters). I changed the filenames to shorter ones, and everything was OK. I got the clue from the Exception thrown from the report (RangeException).

Still do not know why it is installed without problems on simulator. (device-related bug?)

I still think that it is a bug in Xcode, little bug that cost me more than a month to figure out the problem.

Xcode crashes when installing/importing text files to physical device after build succeeds (RangeException)
