Failed to emit precompiled header for bridging header
IosSwiftCompiler ErrorsObjective C-Swift-BridgeIos Problem Overview
I downloaded a project from GitHub, then pod the following files, some of which are written by OBJ-C and I used a bridge header.
pod ‘SnapKit’
pod ‘MJRefresh’
pod ‘Alamofire’
pod ‘Kingfisher’
pod ‘MBProgressHUD’
pod ‘pop’
pod ‘EVReflection’
pod ‘StreamingKit’
pod ‘iCarousel’
pod ‘ReflectionView’
When I run the project with Xcode 9.0 beta 2, but unfortunately the error log as follows :
> error: failed to emit precompiled header > '/var/folders/kd/4gh0_kxx3jx4thjb_sssmmcw0000gn/T/EvoRadio-Bridging-Header-97bd5f.pch' > for bridging header > '/Users/ringo/Downloads/EvoRadio-master/EvoRadio/Resources/EvoRadio-Bridging-Header.h'
I have googled, but no such issue.The error means it needs a PCH file?
This is my .pch
header configuration:
It can't solve it.
How to make it?

I have tried all of the above steps mentioned in the answers but nothing worked for me, the problem was basically with the deployment target version for the project and in the podfile.
In my project deployment target was 10.0 while in my podfile it was 11.0.

Note this can also happen if your bridging header imports Objective-C code that itself imports your app's Swift module via myproject-Swift.h
. The solution is to use forward declarations for your Swift types and import the project Swift module in the .m
file.
@class MySwiftClass
or...
typedef NS_ENUM(NSInteger, MySwiftEnumType)
MySwiftEnumType
is the lowest level name even for classes. So Swift enum MyClass.MySwiftEnumType
becomes just MySwiftEnumType

Make sure you're opening the proper project workspace, otherwise, the Podfile
may not have all the resources it needs to compile.
I saw this same error on a project that had been working fine previously.
I discovered that I had accidentally opened the ProjectName.xcodeproj
file rather than the ProjectName.xcworkspace
file. Opened the xcworkspace
file and presto, project was working again!

I also got exact same issue (Xcode9 beta 6) after I added cocoa pods for Encrypted Core Data.
This is my PodFile
:
# Uncomment the next line to define a global platform for your project
platform :ios, '9.0'
pod 'EncryptedCoreData', :git => 'https://github.com/project-imas/encrypted-core-data.git'
target 'Root' do
# Comment the next line if you're not using Swift and don't want to use dynamic frameworks
use_frameworks!
# Pods for Root
target 'RootTests' do
inherit! :search_paths
# Pods for testing
end
target 'RootUITests' do
inherit! :search_paths
# Pods for testing
end
end
Solution:
1 I added $(inherited) non-recursive
to Search Path -> Header Search Paths
2 Then added ${PODS_ROOT} recursive
to Search Path -> User Header Search Paths
Both the above in my projects' target build settings.
Please have a look at these SO answers:
1 Inherit Header Search Paths
2 Inherit User Search Paths

For me, this problem occurred when I added new build configuration and scheme to the existing project.
The solution was to run pod install
on newly created scheme. After that, project was built successfully.
Solution 6 - Ios
I had this issue just when compiling for a simulator not for a hardware device. There were two compile error like:
- error: failed to emit precompiled header 'Bridging-Header-97bd5f.pch' for bridging header 'Bridging-Header.h'
- Could not find ActionSheetPicker_3_0/ActionSheetPicker.h in Bridging Header (but it was declared there)
After hours of research and try and errors it turned out, that there was no valid architecture set in the project to compile for simulators.
At Project -> Build Settings -> User-Defined -> VALID_ARCHS
add the architecture x86_64
to enable compilation for simulators.

You can try this solution. I have solved the same problem by this way.
Product > Scheme > Edit Scheme > Select "Build" on Left Menu > Find implicit dependencies
Under the build tab, check 'Find implicit dependencies':
Then make a clean and build again.
Solution 8 - Ios
XCode can build seccessful in the some target, but the other target can not.
Finally, I found that Header Search Paths is not the same. (Path: Target > Build Settings > Search Paths > Header Search Paths > add item)
I copied & pasted the path from the successful target. I made it. Bravo.

In my case I had the same compiler error with additional errors like "Unknown type" in one of my project files, So I just added this to the problematic file, and it solved it instantly.
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
Solution 10 - Ios
In my case;
Under Target/Build Settings/
Product_Name section was different than $(TARGET_NAME)
When I changed it $(TARGET_NAME), it was resolved.
Solution 11 - Ios
My experience with this is that Xcode is unable to find header files for pods/frameworks imported in the project.
My Project experience with this:
Updating Xcode9.2 - 9.3 where many cocoapods had to be updated due to implicit definitions now unavailable or being outdated.
I had changed the Podfile to now include 'use_frameworks!'. Following this and after dealing with other compile issues I found the error you are experiencing. I believe adding 'use_frameworks! was preventing some pods with support prior to iOS 8 from compiling correctly. Steps I took to correct this issue:
-
I tried deleting the Pods/ directory using cocoa
pod deintegrate
-
I then open project with Xcode and cleaned the build folder and the project. (delete content within derived data folder)
-
I then
pod install
again but the issue persisted. -
Ultimately I removed the use_frameworks line in Podfile and then repeated steps 1-3 and the project was now able to find the missing header files and the issue never presented it self again.

For my case I had a typo in folder name "Supporing FIles" instead of "Supporting Files".
Solution 13 - Ios
Deleting Podfile.lock
and re-running pod install
fixed this for me.
Solution 14 - Ios
There are so many reasons and things can do, like:
- Restart Xcode, Clean, Build
- Remove Pods directory and pod install
- Check the missing file is added to your pod file
- Check the missing file is added to you bridging header
- Change the header settings like here https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12002905/ios-build-fails-with-cocoapods-cannot-find-header-files/12142790#12142790
The only one works for me is the accepted answer in https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46293028/xcode-9-failed-to-emit-precompiled-header.
platform :ios, '11.0'
in podfile should match the target in the project
Solution 15 - Ios
I also suffered from this after I updated new Xcode. After several hours of investigation, i found that if you have multiple targets, you now have to add more targets in pod file in Xcode 10. So your code should be like this:
platform :ios, '9.0'
target 'EvoRadio' do
pod ‘SnapKit’
pod ‘MJRefresh’
pod ‘Alamofire’
pod ‘Kingfisher’
pod ‘MBProgressHUD’
pod ‘pop’
pod ‘EVReflection’
pod ‘StreamingKit’
pod ‘iCarousel’
pod ‘ReflectionView’
target 'EvoRadio2ndtarget' # add your second target
end
I found that in Xcode 9 you don't need to add, but in Xcode 10 you need to add this. Hope this helps.

In my case, I found that it was because I did not config the Framework Search Paths
in Release Tab. Here is the screenshot:
After adding this path, it works.
Solution 17 - Ios
I had same scenario, make sure for the file A that you have included in YourProjectName-Bridging-Header.h
- if it uses some other class(s), then those other classes are also included before that File A
Solution 18 - Ios
In my case, I was building with the wrong scheme (Top-Left menu).
Solution 19 - Ios
For Xcode 11 I had an issue with the "Security.framework". I removed this dependency, then re added it. Ultimately fixed the other problems
Solution 20 - Ios
I got this error after renaming the existing Xcode project configuration in which I had another Xcode project imported.
To fix it, you have to rename the same configuration in the imported project as well.
Solution 21 - Ios
Since I have been stuck in this issue for 2 working days , I would like to share my issue for you because may be future searchers are facing my problem
I was getting the mentioned error when running with command line , and I found that the command I was writing was for running .xcodeproj
,, but to run a .xcworkspace
you have to write the following command
> xcodebuild -workspace PROJECTNAME.xcworkspace clean archive > -archivePath build/PROJECTNAME -scheme SCHEMENAME
Solution 22 - Ios
In my case, all was good. I had just forgotten to add '.h' in import added to the bridging header file
Was
import 'Test'
Required
import 'Test.h'
