This is my first framework using Swift language and it's private framework. It's worked as expected until new Xcode 9.3 release. After upgrading newer Xcode got an issue like this Module compiled with Swift 4.0.3 cannot be imported in Swift 4.1.
After that only I realized framework doesn't support auto version (Xcode/Swift) upgrade, Did some search found there is a Universal or Fat Binary Framework single build instead of separate build for real device and simulator which I missed in previously.

At Edit Scheme -> Archive -> Post-Action -> Run Script
This time I am used Swift Compiler - Language -> Swift 3.3
And I got expected output this time too in Xcode 9.3 with Swift 4.1
When I try to run the project with this framework at Xcode 9.2 it's show error like this
Module compiled with Swift 4.1 cannot be imported in Swift 3.2.3:
Try to resolve with backward compatibility and I didn't find. How can I run this framework in Xcode 9.2
Framework support: Swift and Objective C, Min OS iOS 8.0
**Update**
Also got something like this error
compiled with newer version of Swift language (unknown ABI version 0x06) than previous files (4.0) file 'MAC location' for architecture armv7
And tried this to my project

After Archiving i am able to get the framework file but when i try to add that framework into the demo project it gives me multiple errors as follows:
dyld: Library not loaded: #rpath/TestIOS.framework/TestIOS

or else any library names comes in the picture.
and whenever i try to create the xcframework file i get the following error
Failed to build module from its module interface; it may have been damaged or it may have triggered a bug in the Swift compiler when it was produced
i am on a crucial stage to solve this error. Anyone if facing the same issue or faced the same along the way they created framework Please Help me out
XCode Version - 12.5.1
In your target project, did you try to embed the Framework ?
(Old XCode screenshot of mine here)
I have an Xcode 10 - iOS12 swift project that links against My own framework (also Xcode 10 + iOS12).
The app project is referencing my framework project as a sub-project reference.
My Framework project references PromiseKit.framework (a universal framework - fat library), made using the following build script:
# Merge Script
# 1
# Set bash script to exit immediately if any commands fail.
set -e
# 2
# Setup some constants for use later on.
FRAMEWORK_NAME="PromiseKit"
# 3
# If remnants from a previous build exist, delete them.
if [ -d "${SRCROOT}/build" ]; then
rm -rf "${SRCROOT}/build"
fi
# 4
# Build the framework for device and for simulator (using
# all needed architectures).
xcodebuild -target "${FRAMEWORK_NAME}" -configuration Release -arch arm64 only_active_arch=no defines_module=yes -sdk "iphoneos"
xcodebuild -target "${FRAMEWORK_NAME}" -configuration Release -arch x86_64 only_active_arch=no defines_module=yes -sdk "iphonesimulator"
# 5
# Remove .framework file if exists on Desktop from previous run.
if [ -d "${SRCROOT}/${FRAMEWORK_NAME}.framework" ]; then
rm -rf "${SRCROOT}/${FRAMEWORK_NAME}.framework"

When I go to archive my Parent App Project using Xcode 10 (And also 9.4.1) with Bitcode ON (that contains My Framework reference, and PromiseKit Fat library), I get the following error on the Signing stage: (Failed to verify bitcode in PromiseKit.framework/PromiseKit: error Cannot extract bundle from /var/folders..../(x86_64) - which suggests that it's simulator slice related)
If I turn the "Rebuild from Bitcode" option in the Organizer to OFF, then I get a different error: (Code signing "PromiseKit.framework" failed)
However, if I use Xcode 9.4.1 With Bitcode OFF, then it exports and signs fine.
Why is it trying to individually re-sign sub frameworks, and what can I do to alleviate the issues? I need the archiving to work normally with Xcode 10, along with any future third party dependencies being added to my framework target. (This is the first dynamic framework dependency added to my Framework target. Before I was "baking in" - in-boarding all 3rd parties for ease of development purposes, but PromiseKit is difficult to inboard due to extensive dependencies on Objective-c).
The Xcode Archive log is:
{
code = 330;
description = "Failed to resolve linkage dependency PromiseKit x86_64 -> #rpath/libswiftFoundation.dylib: Unknown arch x86_64";
info = {
};
level = WARN;
},
{
code = 330;
description = "Failed to resolve linkage dependency PromiseKit x86_64 -> #rpath/libswiftObjectiveC.dylib: Unknown arch x86_64";

},

info = {
};
level = ERROR;
type = "malformed-payload";
}
);
Some other solutions I tried was using a Project Reference to PromiseKit, instead of a Framework reference, however this doesn't work - in that I still need a framework reference from my main project, because I will get "library not loaded" error at runtime, if running without a FW reference. Same issue occurs when archiving while using a project reference.
Try this! It worked for me and many other people:
Goto
Build phases > Add > New Run Script Phase
The code should work for any default shell, but I recommend just using /bin/sh
and include the following code:
# Type a script or drag a script file from your workspace to insert its path.
# skip if we run in debug
if [ "$CONFIGURATION" == "Debug" ]; then
echo "Skip frameworks cleaning in debug version"
exit 0
fi
APP_PATH="${TARGET_BUILD_DIR}/${WRAPPER_NAME}"
# This script loops through the frameworks embedded in the application and
# removes unused architectures.
find "$APP_PATH" -name '*.framework' -type d | while read -r FRAMEWORK
do
FRAMEWORK_EXECUTABLE_NAME=$(defaults read "$FRAMEWORK/Info.plist" CFBundleExecutable)
FRAMEWORK_EXECUTABLE_PATH="$FRAMEWORK/$FRAMEWORK_EXECUTABLE_NAME"
echo "Executable is $FRAMEWORK_EXECUTABLE_PATH"
EXTRACTED_ARCHS=()
for ARCH in $ARCHS
do
echo "Extracting $ARCH from $FRAMEWORK_EXECUTABLE_NAME"
lipo -extract "$ARCH" "$FRAMEWORK_EXECUTABLE_PATH" -o "$FRAMEWORK_EXECUTABLE_PATH-$ARCH"
EXTRACTED_ARCHS+=("$FRAMEWORK_EXECUTABLE_PATH-$ARCH")
done
echo "Merging extracted architectures: ${ARCHS}"
lipo -o "$FRAMEWORK_EXECUTABLE_PATH-merged" -create "${EXTRACTED_ARCHS[#]}"
rm "${EXTRACTED_ARCHS[#]}"
echo "Replacing original executable with thinned version"
rm "$FRAMEWORK_EXECUTABLE_PATH"
mv "$FRAMEWORK_EXECUTABLE_PATH-merged" "$FRAMEWORK_EXECUTABLE_PATH"
done
It seems hat some frameworks ship architectures, that will not be used in the application.
Xcode will refuse to sign them. The above script removes unused architectures.
Credits: Some guy at GitHub, I can't find the exact source anymore.
Same issue here. The only workaround I've found is to use static library instead of framework.
In case you are not able to use static library, you'd better file a bug report to Apple.
This is what worked for me,
I have application and 2 in-house built frameworks, say A $ B.
Application needs A, but A needs B and since Apple doesn't recommend nesting frameworks, so both A and B had to be included in the app.
This is what my Xcode project looks like.
SOLUTION
In the application, under Frameworks, Libraries and Embedded Content, select Embed & Sign for all necessary frameworks. (as shown below)
But for all the custom framework projects, under Frameworks and Libraries section, select Do Not Embed. (as shown below)
This fixed the issue for me
I am facing this issue on Xcode 9.4.1
I tried with
github "Hearst-DD/ObjectMapper" ~> 3.1.0 //(tried with 3.3.0)
but this error.
Module compiled with Swift 4.2 cannot be imported in Swift 4.1.2 comes every-time.
I tried below things:
Deleting the .resolved file
Deleted the build and checkout folder
Deleted the framework folder from builds inside cathage
tried with carthage bootstrap --platform iOS.
Updated: Below error keep on coming.

You need to do carthage bootstrap --no-use-binaries to make Carthage compile the frameworks locally, using the Swift 4.2 compiler that your project uses.
To fix what I did, I was having success build in Jenkins Server I kept the the same version and copied the build project and framework for the same. then run
carthage bootstrap platform iOS
I know this something hack, but this is how I am able to solve.
I've built a framework in Swift. The framework uses Cocoapods, one of the pods is written in Objective C.
I also use a custom script to make the framework a fat framework so it supports 32/64 bit systems. (This runs in a separate target on the project and I'm wondering if that has something to do with it?)

When I create this fat framework and put it into a project I'd like to use it on the compiler always fails b/c the project can't see the objective C cocoa pod module.
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
ld: framework not found Pusher for architecture x86_64
It is not found for any architecture when I change the build platform.
Any solution where I can produce a framework that I can use in a separate Xcode project (for all iOS or OS X) would be awesome.
You can't run xcodebuild with -target when using CocoaPods. When you use -target, Xcode will only consider the active project and fail to pull in the Pod dependencies, similar to if you just opened the project file in Xcode and tried building.
You should be running xcodebuild -workspace "${PROJECT_NAME}.xcworkspace" -scheme "${PROJECT_NAME}" ..., assuming that CocoaPods generated the workspace and Xcode generated a scheme using the target name. You will also need to make sure your scheme is marked as shared if running this on another device.
Once your framework is built you will need to include it and the frameworks it depends on in apps that will be using it. For your framework, that means including it in General > Embedded Binaries and General > Linked Frameworks and Libraries. For frameworks you depend on, (e.g. AlamoFire), you could instruct users to include it in their Podfile, you could package it and ship it along with your framework, or you could do both and let the user do what works for them.
Apparently you are missing the 64bit architecture for Simulator.
When you build a target from Xcode, depending on what kind of simulator you have selected - the produced library will contains i386 or x86_64 respectively for selected 32bit or 64bit version of the simulator.
I guess that the cli build is producing only i386 version.
You can try to set the architectures in the script:
xcodebuild -target "${PROJECT_NAME}" ARCHS="i386 x86_64" -configuration ${CONFIGURATION} -sdk iphonesimulator ONLY_ACTIVE_ARCH=NO BUILD_DIR="${BUILD_DIR}" BUILD_ROOT="${BUILD_ROOT}" clean build
As an alternative You can try to build by hand using 64bit simulator (iPhone 5S +), then extract the missing architecture and then put it into the final library using lipo command.
I've been trying to build a static library and then create a binding project from it in Xamarin. Everything was working fine until iOS 7 hit. I had to grab the latest version of the native library and try and build it in XCode 5, but it's been giving me all kinds of problems. I think it might be related to the build process or possibly some changed setting in XCode 5 (vs. 4) but I'm not sure.
I was using this script to build a universal binary which is based of work in this question:
Build fat static library (device + simulator) using Xcode and SDK 4+
One thing I did notice is that previous, in the old iOS 6.1 version of my binary (built in XCode 4), my binary was about 24 Mb, now with XCode 5 it's ballooned to almost 50 Mb! Which is leading me to think that there is something wrong with the compiling and linking step.
Any ideas? Has anybody else encountered problems with universal binaries in XCode 5 (vs 4)?
I'm using the makefile below for my library and it works flawless even with XCode 5 and the iOS7 SDK.

Here's a link to a Makefile with the tabs, and I made a little change to separate out the target name from the library name. Thanks very much for this! This solved my problem!
