macOS Metal Issue - App Crashes Immediately

I have no issues building and running my wxWidgets project with Xcode 14 on 
macOS 12.7. However, when building it and running it with Xcode 15 on macOS 
14.4, the app crashes once it gets to this line: wxIMPLEMENT_APP(myApp);

I first thought the crash was due to an outdated wxWidgets build, so I 
rebuilt it with the following commands, but that didn't fix it.

git clone --recurse-submodules 
https://github.com/wxWidgets/wxWidgets.git ./configure --disable-sys-libs 
--enable-macosx_arch=x86_64,arm64 make -j5

The stack trace shows that the crash comes from an instruction in 
MTLInputStageReflectionReader::deserialize(id<MTLDeviceSPI>, 
NSObject<OS_dispatch_data>*, NSObject<OS_dispatch_data>) (), which is is a 
Metal library.

Does anyone have any ideas where I should start looking to fix this issue?

Also, I should mention that on the newer Mac, I'm able to build (from the 
command line) all the wxWidgets OpenGL samples and the wxWidgets minimal 
sample and run them without issue.
