In the Xcode 12 betas I'm seeing an issue with importing Swift modules with @objc annotations.

Given two Swift modules which expose classes of the same name:

Code Block 
// FrameworkOne
@objc
public class Thing: NSObject {
    public override init() {}
    @objc
    public func doSomething() {}
}


Code Block 
// FrameworkTwo
@objc
public class Thing: NSObject {
    public override init() {}
    @objc
    public func doSomethingElse() {}
}


And if I have imported both of the frameworks into an ObjC file and interact with the classes in either of them:

Code Block 
#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
@import FrameworkOneObjC;
@import FrameworkTwoObjC;
@interface Example : NSObject 
@end
@implementation Example
- (void) example
{
    Thing *thing = [[Thing alloc] init];
}
@end


Then I'm seeing this build error:
Code Block 
'Thing' has different definitions in different modules; first difference is definition in module 'FrameworkOne.Swift' found method name 'doSomething'
But in 'FrameworkTwo.Swift' found method name 'doSomethingElse'


Is this expected behaviour? If so, is there any way to opt out?

In my case FrameworkOne & FrameworkTwo are external dependencies, and I'm unable to change the names of the classes.

Same issue for me, we have got 2 different pods which contain same class names.
From Xcode 12 beta 5, the project can't compiled and gives same build error:
'X' has different definitions in different modules; first difference is definition in module 'Y' found method name 'Z'

I think that build process has been changed at Xcode 12 beta 5. I'm looking for a solution.

Also seeing this issue in Xcode 12 beta 6. Reported a bug (FB8591101). To me this seems to be a regression as separate modules should be allowed to contain same type names in Swift and this worked in previous Xcode versions.

Following this, I'm still having this issue with XCode 12.0 Beta 6. Is there any official response from Apple regarding this? If it's deemed as an expected behaviour in the future, we need to plan a big code update...

Same here. The only workaround I've found is to rename one of the realisations

Hi! I had the same issue. I solve it by doing this:

  1. Close Xcode

  2. On command line write pod deintegrate and then pod install

  3. Open Xcode and problem should be solved.

Sorry for my english :p
Hope it helps!
