Im trying to wrap my head around the Realm API in Swift which looks extremely promising. I'm trying some demo code in their documentation and I keep getting the same error.I have a Dog.swift file with the following:

In my main ViewController.swift, I have the following to create an instance of Dog and try to save it. The issue is that the realm.add line is not compiling because it "Cannot convert value of type 'Dog' to expected argument type 'Object'"


I am currently setting up an environment where I have a set of Solaris and Linux machines, using a dedicated Krberos 5 realm (MIT, on Solaris 11, krb5-config --version returns: Solaris Kerberos (based on MIT Kerberos 5 release 1.6.3)). We also have an Active Directory (Windows 2003) server for a separate realm.


What could be the cause of this, and how can I figure out what is actually going on? In particular, it would be very helpful to know exactly what encryption type it's trying to use which the KDC has no support for. It would also be useful to know which KDC that sent the error.


As far as I can tell, what happens is that the MIT KDC uses the most secure encoding type when sending the ticket to the AD server. The AD server is unable to handle that encoding and thus replied with the error that the encryption type is not supported. By only having a single encoding type for the principals, the MIT server will use that type when talking to the AD server.


The game is playable because addons exist.

For 20 years blizzard has been ignoring UX and the UI has been as bad as it gets. Recently they started doing some work on it, but it is nowhere near at the level you can comfortably play without it getting in the way.


They will not just throw away all the work addon developers do to make the game better, when they can just disable specific functions for addons when they do not like something (like restricting certain api functions, or using private auras).


These realms would need a hard mechanical difficulty reduction, blizzard has often stated that endgame content is designed with the knowledge that people use addons

that is their design borderline expects you to use them to succeed.


Your realm's region is determined by the region of your World of Warcraft account. If your World of Warcraft account is American, you will be offered a selection of American realms. If your World of Warcraft account is European, you will be offered a selection of European realms. If you want to play on a Korean/Taiwan realm, you will select Asia as the region in the Battle.net app.


To suit players from different time zones and who speak different languages, the Americas and Europe regions have multiple realms divided by zones or by language. For example, the Americas region has Oceanic realms for players in Australia and New Zealand, and Latin American realms for the Spanish or Portuguese speaking communities.


On an RP realm other players may expect you to develop a backstory for your character, to stay in character when interacting with others, and to contribute to the fantasy immersion of the realm's community as a whole.


A realm is an instance of the World of Warcraft (WoW) game world. Realms are hosted on physical devices called server blades (for this reason, the terms "realm" and "server" are often used interchangeably). This prevents any one realm from becoming too crowded and overwhelming its associated server, provides for better connection times by allowing players to connect to local servers, allows for localized communities based on language, and allows different play-styles for different groups of users. Each realm also has its own name, generally taken from an important character, location or group within the Warcraft universe.


To play WoW, you must first choose a realm to play on. You then connect to this realm over the Internet. Blizzard has servers in the US, Europe, China, and Korea. For a list of all realms, see realms list.


Each realm is a complete version of the game world but has its own player characters who are tied to that particular realm. Players can interact with all the characters on their current realm but cannot generally interact with players on other realms. This includes communicating, forming parties and guilds, sending mail, trading and directly interacting. Each realm is a discrete instance of the game world, and as such events that take place on one realm will not affect other realms, including world progression such as the Isle of Thunder, and realm first achievements.


A character must be created on a specific realm, and can only be played by selecting that realm. Players may create characters on any number of realms up to a maximum of sixty characters per WoW account.


Characters cannot move between realms via in-game means. However, players may take advantage of free character migrations (FCMs) or paid Character Transfers to move characters between realms. It is not possible to move characters between different regions.


Exceptions to the above rules include Connected Realms, where multiple realms function as a single cohesive realm; cross-realm zones, where certain zones may feature characters from several different servers; and battleground, Dungeon Finder and arena instances, which may feature characters from separate servers. One notable exception is the RealID and BattleTag systems, which allow players to invite other players from other realms to join their party. All characters in the party will be moved to the realm of the current leader and will function fully in that realm, including queuing for arena and instances.


There are currently four main types of realm available to players: Player vs. Environment (PvE), Player vs. Player (PvP), Roleplaying (RP), and Roleplaying Player vs. Player (RP-PvP). Each type of realm features a slightly different ruleset. While PvE realms are the basic option, PvP and RP-PvP realms allow for increased world PvP, while RP and RP-PvP realms are designed to facilitate roleplaying, and accordingly have certain requirements and expectations of their players. Test realms are a special type of realm available for players to test features from coming patches.


Abbreviated PvE, the player versus environment realm allows for a more relaxed style while in the world. PvE realms focus on player versus environment (PvE) play and depending on the location within the world, it is more difficult to initiate player versus player (PvP) combat on these realms. This type of realm is also referred to as a "normal" realm. PvE realms are generally recommended for new players, since there is no risk of unwanted PvP combat or ganking from other players.


Abbreviated PvP, the player versus player realm differs from the normal realm. PvP realms have an increased amount of player versus player combat, in the form of World PvP; entering any contested or enemy territory automatically flags the character being used for PvP combat, and the character cannot be unflagged while in these zones. The player will remain flagged for five minutes after having left a contested or enemy territory. PvP realms are generally recommended for those who enjoy knowing that they could be attacked at any time.


Not a normal option for character creation, Test Realms are special realms that are periodically made available, in which players can try experimental features in development before they get released as general patches. Test realms often exist in both PvE and PvP varieties.


As with all World of Warcraft play, servers are divided into regions. The current regions are Americas & Oceania, Europe, China, Taiwan and Korea. World of Warcraft accounts are region-specific and only allow for use of features related to that region, including access to servers.


Characters cannot be transferred to realms in other regions, and a player cannot communicate with or invite players from other regions. Cross-realm features such as cross-realm zones and battleground instances do not function cross-region. Currently, all leaderboards and ladders (eg Challenge Mode) are region- or realm-specific.


European realms are divided up by which language is primarily spoken on them, each realm having a specified language. Fully localized realms also feature game text and names in the specified language.


Each realm has a population listed on the realm selection screen. Each realm is characterized as having Recommended, Low, Medium, High, or Full population. Recommended realms are realms that Blizzard Entertainment feels will give a new player the best experience, while the rest are categorized based on how many players are currently logged into the realm. Players cannot create a character on a Full realm unless they already have characters on that realm. Full realms are deemed 'full' by Blizzard and as such, their 'full' status does not fluctuate like a 'high' population realm's might. There is no reason to wait until off-peak times to see if you will be allowed to create a character on a 'full' realm.


A realm's population impacts its play experience in many ways. Higher population server boasts far more players with whom to communicate, trade and group, but may feature waiting times simply to log into the game, and users may experience lag and server stress problems at peak times. On lower population servers there are fewer other players to group with, making non-cross-realm features such as an arena, trading and serious end-game play much harder to achieve. However, players do not have to queue to play the game, and lag and server problems are minimal.


The population can also affect play within the larger game world. High population servers may feature far more competition for resources and quest mobs, and an increased chance of griefing or world PvP, especially on PvP servers. In extreme cases, high numbers of players in busy areas can cause long queues to complete quests, or even cause the server to crash. Lower population servers typically feature little such competition, but also make it harder to find other players with whom to interact. However, in extremely low population areas, the cross-realm zones feature may act to mitigate these differences by introducing players from other realms. This feature does not affect capital cities or most end-game zones but may improve the experience while leveling on lower population servers. While server population affects many areas of the game world, it has little impact on cross-realm aspects of the game, such as non-rated battlegrounds or dungeons queued for through the Dungeon Finder.
