We created Framework in Objective c, It's work Perfect.

By Follow Below Simple Steps to create Framework

1) Create new framework as ,

In xcode select

 file =>New =>Project =>cocoatouchframework =>Next =>GiveframeworkName =>Create  

2) Add .h and .m files in project, which is used for create Framework.

3) Add files in Public Headers in build phases, this file will display in your framework.

4) Click on project name DemoFramework then select + button then select

Cross-platform =>Aggregate 

5) Add Run Script

6) Add below code in Run script to Aggregate(marge)iPhone and simulator framework.

   #  ============Script Start==============
   if [ "${ACTION}" = "build" ]
   then
   # Set the target folders and the final framework product.
   INSTALL_DIR=${SYMROOT}/DemoFramework.framework
   DEVICE_DIR=${SYMROOT}/Debug-iphoneos
   SIMULATOR_DIR=${SYMROOT}/Debug-iphonesimulator

  # Create and renews the final product folder.
  mkdir -p "${INSTALL_DIR}"
  rm -rf "${INSTALL_DIR}"
  rm -rf "${INSTALL_DIR}/DemoFramework"

 # Copy the header files to the final product folder.
 ditto "${DEVICE_DIR}/DemoFramework.framework/Headers" 
 "${INSTALL_DIR}/Headers"

 # Copy the info.plist file to the final product folder
 ditto "${DEVICE_DIR}/DemoFramework.framework/info.plist" 
"${INSTALL_DIR}"

# Copy the ResoureBundle.bundle file to the final product folder
ditto "${DEVICE_DIR}/DemoFramework.framework/ResourceBundle.bundle" 
"${INSTALL_DIR}/ResourceBundle.bundle"

# Use the Lipo Tool to merge both binary files (i386 + armv6/armv7) 
 into one Universal final product.
 lipo -create "${DEVICE_DIR}/DemoFramework.framework/DemoFramework" 
"${SIMULATOR_DIR}/DemoFramework.framework/DemoFramework" -output 
"${INSTALL_DIR}/DemoFramework"
 fi
 #  ============Script End==============

7) Now build the project in Three steps
