@sergeykhliustin Have you tested integrating with ios_application in the rules_apple? I am getting an ObjcLink issue when trying to integrate an Objective-C apple_framework with a Swift application using rules_apple

I got the reason Swift doesn't support static link library here https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41210249/why-do-we-use-use-frameworks-in-cocoapods. So we must use the dynamic link (similar to use_framework! in the Cocoapods.

The reason seems more complex since I am deep into this blog. The modern Swift supports static links if we have the modular headers https://blog.cocoapods.org/CocoaPods-1.5.0/

I will re-open this issue and also continue to investigate this. If anyone is more savvy about please discuss it.

  • I downgrade Bazel 7 to the bazel 6.
  • Use ios_application from rules_ios instead of rule_apple

It seems everything works well now 🙏
