Next, click File->Add Packages…-> add CodeScannerDependency into Package Dependencies.

Debugging&Troubleshooting

In order to prevent the occurence of

“Cannot assign value of type ‘ScanResult’ to type ‘String’ “ error

at

self.scannedCode = code

we need to use

self.scannedCode = code.string 

instead to make the value types compatible.

Done Committing. NOTE: To retain each commit to Github Repositories: Must save -> resume -> rebuild on Simulator -> push both hierarchical and flat modified files and assets remotely to the Github origin/main.
