Descripción
Description
Even if ccache is enabled for iOS builds, it's never actually used. The issue seems to originate from this PR:
https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/48257
The CCACHE_BINARY user-defined setting was added to Xcode, which the shell scripts will try to use as an env var. However, none of the user-defined settings become an env var, therefore ccache is never invoked (as of Xcode 26.2).
You can test the env vars by adding the following line to ccache-clang.sh:
env > ~/ccache.log
Steps to reproduce
- Install ccache
brew install ccache - Zero the ccache stats
ccache -z - Check out the minimal repro project
- Set up iOS dependencies
cd ios && bundle install && bundle exec pod install - Build iOS using
npm run iosor by opening the Xcode project
Expected outcome:
ccache is used and ccache -s contains stats
Actual outcome:
ccache is never called

Stacktrace or Logs
The ccache stats don't show any information other than size because it has never been hit:
Local storage:
Cache size (GiB): 0.3 / 5.0 ( 5.80%)
Expected stats:
Cacheable calls: 0 / 1 ( 0.00%)
Hits: 0
Direct: 0
Preprocessed: 0
Misses: 0
Uncacheable calls: 1 / 1 (100.0%)

Línea de trabajo
Comienza con packages/react-native/scripts/xcode/ccache-clang.sh e inspecciona cómo se consume CCACHE_BINARY durante la compilación de iOS. Ejecuta el reproducer obligatorio, compila con npm run ios o Xcode y comprueba ccache -s; el trabajo está terminado cuando la compilación invoca ccache y las estadísticas muestran llamadas al compilador.
