[swift-users] Swift 3.0 and Xcode 7.3.x

[Patrice Kouame]

Hi Jordan - thanks for the quick reply (especially in the middle of WWDC!) 

I suspected as much with 7.3.x (unfortunately), but I’ve heard of folks running a 3.0 toolchain (from swift.org <http://swift.org/>) with 7.3.x.  Besides an unsupported playground, what other types of side effects can I expect? Just trying to prepare for my worst case scenario where Xcode 8 remains flaky on El Capitan for a while.  

BTW: My Xcode 8 beta on 10.11.5 crashes repeatedly, very reproducible see my posts https://forums.developer.apple.com/thread/49000 <https://forums.developer.apple.com/thread/49000> 
and my open bug radar report # 26849825 “Xcode 8 beta IDE crashes consistently”.  I hope Apple can take a look at this.  This is my first beta that crashed out of the box. I hope this can get some traction.  I’m surely not the only one.

regards,
Patrice

That said, we (Apple) would definitely like to hear about issues running Xcode 8 on El Capitan; if you haven’t already, please file a bug report at bugreport.apple.com <http://bugreport.apple.com/>!
