Xcode 15.3 frameworks built now references SwiftUI

Question

After updating our build server to Xcode 15.3, the frameworks (e.g. CCIeNewsNetworking) we build and release seems to reference SwiftUI.

Our deployment target is iOS11.

Customers have complained when running on iOS12:

dyld: Library not loaded: /System/Library/Frameworks/SwiftUI.framework/SwiftUI
  Referenced from: /private/var/containers/Bundle/Application/81538A25-464A-46E0-BC4D-6E1C002C82F0/Test.app/Frameworks/CCIeNewsNetworking.framework/CCIeNewsNetworking
  Reason: image not found

and I can see that "import SwiftUI" now appears in arm64-apple-ios.private.swiftinterface:

diff CCIeNewsNetworking.xcframework-7.3*/ios-arm64/CCIeNewsNetworking.framework/Modules/CCIeNewsNetworking.swiftmodule/arm64-apple-ios.private.swiftinterface

>   @objc public func removeOperation(issueIdentifier: Swift.String, fileName: Swift.String)

I don't recall having changed anything in the project settings, so where does "import SwiftUI" come from, and how can I avoid it ?

If I were in your shoes I’d temporarily rip everything out of your framework target and see if the problems persists.

I tried replicating this here with a new framework containing just this code:

import Foundation

public struct Waffle {

    public init(finish: String) {
        self.finish = finish
    }
    
    public var finish: String
}

and the results were pretty much what I expected:

% cat "Test749860 15-04-2024"*".xcarchive/Products/Library/Frameworks/Test749860.framework/Modules/Test749860.swiftmodule/arm64-apple-ios.swiftinterface"
// swift-interface-format-version: 1.0
// …
// …
import Foundation
import Swift
@_exported import Test749860
import _Concurrency
import _StringProcessing
import _SwiftConcurrencyShims
public struct Waffle {
  public init(finish: Swift.String)
  public var finish: Swift.String
}

So clearly this doesn’t happen all the time, so there’s something in your code that’s triggering it. Remove all the code and then slowly add stuff back in until you see what’s triggering it.

Share and Enjoy
