Please check your bridging header file path. – Whitsun

Ok I will check, is there any other issues – Grissel

99% i am sure, you didn't set properly, please refer this link : https://mcmap.net/q/1160805/-how-to-find-path-of-bridging-header-h-swift-xcode – Whitsun

I referred that answer but still, it's not working, same error, what can I do now? – Grissel

Can i ask your Xcode version? And also make sure all pod files available in swift 5 or not because you selected swift 5 and For Xcode 11, you need to use CocoaPods 1.8.4 and nothing older. – Whitsun

it's Xcode Version 11.3 (11C29) and I am also using CocoaPods 1.8.4 – Grissel

Disable batch mode by adding a user-defined build setting named SWIFT_ENABLE_BATCH_MODE and set it to NO. Go to your target's build settings and add this user-defined setting. – Whitsun

Ok, mam, I will check it and let you know, how it works – Grissel

Yes pod swift version and try batch mode, if not working than let me know..!! – Whitsun

I added user-defined setting and set it to no but I am unable to add this in target – Grissel

I have sent the screenshots on Linkedin – Grissel

Remove from your bridging header file path : /Users/sjainmac/Downloads/TrippyCarApp7M20 – Whitsun

ok I am going to check – Grissel

I did, I removed extra lines but still, it's not working same error – Grissel

whatever I am doing I am getting that same error again and again. – Grissel

any update mam. – Grissel

Yes i update you in linkedIn...! Thank you – Whitsun

Answer 1

I checked your problem and as per you selected project language project work properly in XCode 10.2 but you require changes for updated XCode 11.2.1

Please follow few things :

1. Make sure first your bridging header file path is proper in build settings.
2. You need to update razor pay pod because you add tag (pod 'razorpay-pod', '~> 1.1.1'), and pod updated in Swift 5.1 so please remove it and change pod name with pod 'razorpay-pod'
3. Please change your build settings. Set Build Library for Distribution in the build settings for the target framework to YES.

Hope it’s helpful to you.

It works fine now, Thank you so much Anjali mam. I and dont have that much reputation yet your ans works, made my day. Thank you so much. – Grissel

My header file has only 1 line #import "GeneratedPluginRegistrant.h". Is this correct? – Keramic

That would be SWIFT_OBJC_BRIDGING_HEADER. – Cohn

Answer 2

In my case, i had to follow these steps:

Step 1:

config.build_settings['BUILD_LIBRARY_FOR_DISTRIBUTION'] = 'NO'

in my Podfile under

...

post_install do |installer|
  installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|
    flutter_additional_ios_build_settings(target)
    target.build_configurations.each do |config|
      # Put it here (indent like this)
  ...

Step 2

• Select Runner on the left Panel
• Under Targets, select the target (usually "Runner")
• Select Build Settings from the top Menu
• Scroll down to Build Options and find the option "Build Libraries for Distribution"
• Set the value of "Build Libraries for Distribution" to NO (or set it for any particular build scheme)
• Clean Build Folder
• Delete flutter "build" folder, run flutter clean & flutter pub get

Dipole

Thank you so much, but make sure to add "end" after target.build_configurations.each do |config| otherwise you got an error – Ali

Answer 3

So I faced a problem with Razorpay swift version and following one of the suggested methodologies set Target>Build Libraries for Distribution to Yes.

Big mistake.

kept getting error: using bridging headers with module interfaces is unsupported

Finally fixed it by setting Build Libraries for Distribution Back to No [Razorpay issue was still not resolved so had to downgrade Flutter]

Answer 4

I have solved it in this way, Detailed steps are here, Solution to Xcode Error: using bridging headers with module interfaces is unsupported

Solution:

In your Project Level & Target level Build Settings tab, open the Build Options menu. And then set Build Libraries for Distribution option to No.

Final

The accepted answer says to set it to YES. This is confusing.. – Bicephalous

Not a solution. Plus, you're posting a link to your own blog or whatever instead of answering the question in here. – Vyborg

It is not a solution as if you need to prepare the lib for distribution you need to have this option as YES – Soso
