How do I bridge Swift with Objective-C code?

To bridge Swift with Objective-C code, you need to create a bridging header that allows Swift to understand and use Objective-C code. This is essential for incorporating existing Objective-C libraries into your Swift project or when you prefer to use existing Objective-C code.

Steps to create a bridging header:

  1. Create a new file by selecting File > New > File.
  2. Choose Header File and name it (e.g., YouProjectName-Bridging-Header.h).
  3. In your bridging header, import your Objective-C headers. For example:
// YouProjectName-Bridging-Header.h #import "YourObjectiveCClass.h"

Lastly, set the bridging header path in your Build Settings under Objective-C Bridging Header.
