Unfortunately this error is often caused by a glitch inside Swift's compiler. It is not always easy to find the reason. If cleaning doesn't work, my suggestion is to try to comment the last code you wrote (even the whole file if necessary). Usually commenting the last code you entered would restore the compilation and you'll get more meaningful errors. From there on you have to try to uncomment the code piece by piece until you get to the instruction which caused this error. The Swift compiler is still pretty young and from time to time it reports weird errors. These kind of errors are completely useless, because instead of helping the developers they only confuse them even more. I would suggest Apple to change the compiler to give more detailed information and avoid this annoying error from appearing anymore.
