So after spending almost a week trying to build swift and core libraries (mainly xctest) during the end of May un-successfully, I made up my mind to give another attempt today.
I checkout the latest code from swift repo. Since the xctest documentation says, "Confirm you're able to build the Swift project using utils/build-script -R", that's where I started. Unfortunately, build-script -R gives the below error. <unknown>:0: error: Swift does not support the SDK 'MacOSX10.11.sdk' My active developer directory is '/Applications/Xcode-beta.app/Contents/Developer'. The toolchain is 'Xode 8.0' The build is taken in Mac OSX El Capitan 10.11.4 Let me know whether I miss anything? I assume getting the build working for the first time is the hardest, but there I am! Any help is appreciated! Regards, Madhu On Mon, May 30, 2016 at 8:32 AM, Madhu Samuel <madhusam...@gmail.com> wrote: > Wow, that was a quick response.
