I have a target that contains Objective-C source files and builds a static
library for iOS. It works fine. I just tried adding a single Swift file to it,
and now it fails to build, with a strange link-time error:
libtool: unknown option character `X' in: -Xlinker
which sounds like Xcode is using a command-line flag that libtool doesn’t
understand. A bug in Xcode, maybe? (I’m using the latest beta of 6.3: 6D554n.)
If I remove the .swift file from the target, it builds file. Re-add it, I get
the error. I’ve checked the target build settings and there’s no custom
“-Xlinker” flag defined, so this must be something Xcode came up with on its
own.
Here’s the entire command line generated by Xcode, and the entire error message:
