# Imported Obj-C class through automatically created Bridging header, Bridging header seems to find it but Swift class won't

Question

1. I added the files directly to my project from finder to Xcode.
2. Bridging header was automatically created by Xcode.
3. #import the Class into the Bridging header - no issues on the Bridging Header.

4. I try to instantiate Class var into swift class - "use of undeclared type" error shows up.

   • Notes: When I try to COMMAND + click on the #import I get the message "Symbol Not Found".

Answer 1

Turns out that file (A.swift) that was trying to reference the "other file" (B.swift) had "test target membership" selected! So I either had to add the "other file"(B.swift) to the test target membership or remove file (A.swift) from the test target membership. I hope that makes sense and that it is of help to someone.

Answer 2

You need to have your bridging filename set to the "Objective-C Bridging Header" field under the Swift Compiler section in Build Settings for it to be included by the Compiler.

"Symbol Not Found" is just an Xcode bug, I get that but I have no issues using bridged files.
