xcode 7.1 swift framework app builds but not archiving

Question

I have created a sample Framework in Swift, xcode 7.1. The framework is then built for Profiling, released version. Released framework then added(embedded) to an iOS test ap

Answer 1

xcode requires that bitcode for all embedded frameworks is generated during archiving.

Copying the release build of framework/dylib isn't enough

do
archive the framework and THEN use the archived version of the framework from then on.

to get xcode to archive a framework (normally it only archives apps), set the build setting 'skip install' to NO for the framework target!
