Do you have the ability to update to 10.14? If you're doing regular Xcode work it's probably worth it, we're going to get new Xcode betas in a few weeks (WWDC) and they'll likely require 10.14, so might be worth upgrading now?

Definitely would be worth it.
Except, I can't. It's a long story, but...
My mac is a mid-2007 iMac. It's not allowed to run anything above El Capitan.
But I was able to upgrade the CPU and WiFi card, and then use the High Sierra Patcher tool to upgrade to High Sierra.
Then I tried upgrading to Mojave...
There is a macOS Mojave patcher tool, which I tried, but this computer has a pre-metal graphics card, so the graphics are absolutely terrible.
But there was some sort of patch on Github that I used, and it looked pretty good.
Until I realized that my computer stopped being able to turn on, at which point I just went back to High Sierra.

This seems to be an Xcode 10.1 <-> Swift 5 issue, not one w/ Xi editor. Could this issue be closed?
(I don't mean to be dismissive, sorry! Just trying to look through a few issues to contribute to, and moving back a performance target from a year-old issue seems to be a bit out of scope.)

Xcode Version is 10.1
from xi-mac.
Ah I see, I was confused. The problem is the inverse; we're using Swift 5, which requires Xcode 10.2, which requires macOS 10.14+.
Unfortunately, there isn't a real workaround outside of upgrading macOS, or reverting #464. :(
from xi-mac.
Oh, I see now. I'm trying to figure out a workaround by downloading the Swift 5 toolchain.
from xi-mac.
Never mind, it's going to take too much hacking of Xcode, which I don't want to mess around with as an iOS developer.
I'll try reverting #464
from xi-mac.
I understand!
What I would suggest is that you just locally revert #464, which should let everything build as usual.

same, i think?

Forcing users to have the newest, fanciest Mac is bad. Graceful downgrading (like to old xcode) is good.
from xi-mac.
I broadly agree; if we were distributing binaries I Would want to support back several OS versions. For development, however, I'm okay with keeping up with "latest - 1".
That said, I will concede that the move to 5.0 might have been a bit premature, it's annoying that we don't work on high sierra. š
from xi-mac.
Yea, a lot of that blame can probably go to Apple for making things obsolete so quickly. The weird divide between El Capitan and Sierra was a big hurdle for me. Now I need to figure out a way to upgrade to Mojave with a graphics card that doesn't support Metal...
And now they're getting ready to release macOS Catalina?
from xi-mac.
Since xi-mac does compile with Swift 5, Iām going to close this issue.
