    var value = 0

    func setRandomValue() {
        value = Int.random(in: 0 ... 10)

    func printAppModelFoo() {
        print("FooBar printAppModelFoo: \(appModel.value)")
    }
}

final class ContentViewModel: ObservableObject {
    @Injected(\.appModel) var appModel: AppModel

    func printAppModelAddress() {
        print("ContentViewModel printAppModelAddress: \(addressOf(appModel))")
    }

    func addressOf(_ o: some AnyObject) -> String {

            Text("\(appModel.value)")

            Text("\(contentViewModel.addressOf(appModel))")

            Button("Next") {
                appModel.setRandomValue()
                contentViewModel.printAppModelAddress()
                fooBar.printAppModelFoo()

/**
 @Injected Implementation
 */

public protocol InjectionKey {
    /// The associated type representing the type of the dependency injection key's value.
    associatedtype Value

    /// The default value for the dependency injection key.
    static var currentValue: Self.Value { get set }
}

/// Provides access to injected dependencies.
struct InjectedValues {
    /// This is only used as an accessor to the computed properties within extensions of `InjectedValues`.
    private static var current = InjectedValues()

    /// A static subscript for updating the `currentValue` of `InjectionKey` instances.
    static subscript<K>(key: K.Type) -> K.Value where K: InjectionKey {
        get { key.currentValue }
        set { key.currentValue = newValue }
    }

    /// A static subscript accessor for updating and references dependencies directly.
    static subscript<T>(_ keyPath: WritableKeyPath<InjectedValues, T>) -> T {
        get { current[keyPath: keyPath] }
        set { current[keyPath: keyPath] = newValue }
    }
}

@propertyWrapper
struct Injected<T> {
    private let keyPath: WritableKeyPath<InjectedValues, T>
    var wrappedValue: T {
        get { InjectedValues[keyPath] }
        set { InjectedValues[keyPath] = newValue }
    }

    init(_ keyPath: WritableKeyPath<InjectedValues, T>) {
        self.keyPath = keyPath
    }
}

If in the code above I convert this:

final class ContentViewModel: ObservableObject {
    @Injected(\.appModel) var appModel: AppModel

    func printAppModelAddress() {
        print("ContentViewModel printAppModelAddress: \(addressOf(appModel))")
    }

    func addressOf(_ o: some AnyObject) -> String {
        let addr = unsafeBitCast(o, to: Int.self)
        return String(format: "%p", addr)
    }
}

into this:

@Observable
final class ContentViewModel {
    @Injected(\.appModel) var appModel: AppModel

    func printAppModelAddress() {
        print("ContentViewModel printAppModelAddress: \(addressOf(appModel))")
    }

    func addressOf(_ o: some AnyObject) -> String {
        let addr = unsafeBitCast(o, to: Int.self)
        return String(format: "%p", addr)
    }
}

I get the following errors:

Property wrapper cannot be applied to a computed property.
Invalid redeclaration of synthesized property '_appModel'
Ambiguous reference to member '_appModel'

Why is that? According to Apple's documentation Migrating from the Observable Object protocol to the Observable macro, it looks like I should be able to do just that... except that I can't.

What am I missing?

Thanks to Jon Duenas for the comments and suggestions:

Can’t use property wrappers with Observable macro. You’ll have to mark it @/ObservationIgnored and then you obviously lose out any any observation benefits.

This works:

@Observable
final class ContentViewModel {
    @ObservationIgnored
    @Injected(\.appModel) var appModel: AppModel

    func printAppModelAddress() {
        print("ContentViewModel printAppModelAddress: \(addressOf(appModel))")
    }

    func addressOf(_ o: some AnyObject) -> String {
        let addr = unsafeBitCast(o, to: Int.self)
        return String(format: "%p", addr)
    }
}

Obviously, @ObservationIgnored has some intended effects which could affect future implementations, but at least I know now what's going on.
