[swift-corelibs-dev] Building Foundation in Xcode

Taylor,
Funny you should mention that. The tests take a long time to run, and I don't really mind if a local toolchain I use has one or two failing tests. So I delete these two lines before building a toolchain: https://github.com/apple/swift/blob/a11e911f662c02c14e28286d76d154370ce5f5e1/utils/build-presets.ini#L711-L712
That disables the tests. Your toolchain builds much faster, but beware: you may have a bug or two in there! ;)

Brian,
I have also been having issues, so I tried your suggestions and I cannot even get a toolchain built on the Swift master branch. I also tried the swift-3-api-guidelines branch, assuming that is where the Swift 3 code lives.
Anyway, I get the error: Failing Tests (1): Swift :: Driver/filelists.swift
Does the build-toolchain script take certain parameters or have other prerequisites? Thanks for any help.

David,
The repository has been migrated to Swift 3. You'll need a Swift 3 .xctoolchain to build it. There isn't a snapshot available yet, but you can build your own using the script added to Swift in https://github.com/apple/swift/pull/1630.
Even using the Swift 3 toolchain, I encountered build errors related to NSRunLoop. Applying https://github.com/apple/swift-corelibs-foundation/pull/284 got everything working for me.
Hope that helps!

Ok, I’m also encountering errors, but many more than Pushkar: OS: OS X El Capitan Xcode: Version 7.3 beta 5 (7D162j) Toolchain: Xcode Swift DEVELOPMENT Snapshot 2016-03-01 (a) And the errors I’m getting seem to come from a mismatch with the Standard Library: Foundation/FoundationErrors.swift:10:48: Use of undeclared type ‘ErrorProtocol' Foundation/NSString.swift:1220:55: Use of undeclared type ‘CVarArg’ Foundation/NSData.swift:18:38: Use of undeclared type ‘OptionSet’ Foundation/NSNotification.swift:95:11: Use of undeclared type ‘Sequence' ... Any ideas what I’m doing wrong?

Brian, Philippe - Thanks for your prompt responses!
You were right, I was using the 2016-02-08 toolchain. Using the latest ( 2016-03-01) solved the problem :)

Hello Pushkar,
One idea that comes to mind: are you launching Xcode 7.2 using a recent Swift toolchain? To do so, follow the instructions on this page: https://swift.org/download/#latest-development-snapshots
Specifically, you'll want to launch Xcode using the xcrun launch-with-toolchain command.
Forgive me if this isn't the problem--I'm not at a computer right now, but that error message vaguely reminds me of what happens when one tries to build Foundatoon with an older version of Swift.

I am very new to Xcode and tried building Foundation and running TestFoundation in Xcode 7.2.1, using the instructions given here.
In step 3, Foundation doesn't build because Xcode reports a compilation failure in NSObjCRuntime.swift (please refer to the attached snapshot): Use of unresolved identifier '_typeByName'
I can see that this function is defined outside of the Foundation project, in the swift project (stdlib/public/core/Misc.swift). I think there are other functions defined in the stdlib and used in Foundation. I am not sure why this particular symbol causes a problem.
Could someone please tell me how the symbol could be imported so that Foundation could be compiled and linked?
