NavigationPath(_items: SwiftUI.NavigationPath.(unknown context at $7ff84b690a28) Representation.eager([SwiftUI.(unknown context at $7ff84b6907f0).C

I tried to use navigationstack, and it works. but couldn't print the path, and with the message: " NavigationPath(_items: SwiftUI.NavigationPath.(unknown context at $7ff84b690a28).Representation.eager([SwiftUI.(unknown context at $7ff84b6907f0).CodableItemBox<Swift.String>]), subsequentItems: [], iterationIndex: 0). "

`import SwiftUI

var toDos: [String] = [ "list1", "list2", "list3" ]

struct ContentView: View { @State private var path = NavigationPath()

var body: some View {
    
    NavigationStack(path: $path) {
        List {
            ForEach(toDos, id:\.self) { toDo in

                Button(action: {
                    path.append(toDo)
                    print(path)
                }, label: {
                    Text("go to " + toDo)
                })
            }
        }
        .navigationDestination(for: String.self) { toDo in
            Text("page for " + toDo)
        }
    }
}

}

#Preview { ContentView() }` I tried navigationlink and simulator still works fine, but cannot print anything of path

If this is just for debugging purposes, you can use dump(path) instead of print(path).

This gives an output like this:

 ▿ SwiftUI.NavigationPath
    ▿ _items: SwiftUI.NavigationPath.(unknown context at $10a94b020).Representation.eager
        ▿ eager: 1 element
            ▿ SwiftUI.(unknown context at $10a94ade8).CodableItemBox<Swift.String> #0
                ▿ super: SwiftUI.NavigationPath_ItemBoxBase
                    - isDoubleDispatchingEqualityOperation: false
                - base: "list1"
    - subsequentItems: 0 elements
    - iterationIndex: 0

The actual elements in the path are listed under ▿ eager: 1 element. There are quite a lot of noise in the output, but at least you do see the elements being printed.

If the NavigationPath only consists of Codable elements, you can encode the path to a JSON string.

let json = try! JSONEncoder().encode(path.codable!)
print(String(data: json, encoding: .utf8)!)

This gives an output like this:

["Swift.String","\"list1\""]
