Archive fails for watchOS framework

[patrickniepel]

I'm currently trying to archive my watchOS framework (watchOS 7.4) that uses the GRDB static library. (Integrated via SPM)

Archive command:

xcodebuild archive -scheme $PROJECT_NAME -sdk watchos -archivePath "archives/ios_devices.xcarchive" BUILD_LIBRARY_FOR_DISTRIBUTION=YES SKIP_INSTALL=NO | xcpretty

The archive fails with the following errors:

❌  /Users/user/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/SDK-artnrqluokcqtjglhehcaaywwymm/Build/Intermediates.noindex/ArchiveIntermediates/WatchSDK/IntermediateBuildFilesPath/GRDB.build/Production-watchos/GRDB.build/Objects-normal/arm64/GRDB.swiftinterface:12:8: no such module 'GRDBSQLite'

I appreciate the help!

Hello @patrickniepel,

Thank you for the report. It's been a long time I haven't archived a watchOS app. I'll have a look, but please first answer a few questions that you ignored when you were presented the issue submission form (please do not ignore issue submission forms from now on):

• Which GRDB version are you using? Is it through SPM or another technique?
• Which Xcode version are your using?
• Is it a regression (something that used to work and stopped working at some point)?

[patrickniepel]

Thanks for responding, won't happen again :)

• I'm using the most recent version v7.6.1, integrated via SPM
• Xcode 16.4
• It's not a regression. This is the first time I'm using GRDB

@groue did you have time to look into this or do you maybe have an idea how we could work around this? 🙂
