Cannot convert value of type 'String' to expected argument type 'StaticString' under Xcode 7.3b2/Swift 2.2

[ratkins]

Compiling under Xcode 7.3 beta 2 I get:

Bot Issue for My Bot (error in NimbleXCTestHandler.swift:25)
Assertion: Cannot convert value of type 'String' to expected argument type 'StaticString'
File: [...]/Carthage/Checkouts/nimble/Nimble/Adapters/NimbleXCTestHandler.swift:25

(also NimbleXCTestHandler.swift:9)

[briancroom]

Thanks for the report @ratkins. To verify, you are actually using Xcode 7.3 beta 2, correct?

This is because Xcode is now shipping with betas of Swift 2.2, which includes swiftlang/swift#888

@jeffh it may be necessary to introduce a Swift 2.2 branch to accommodate this breaking change.

[ratkins]

(ja, sorry—7.3)

Ah, life on the bleeding edge! I'm thankful we now get to see these changes propagate in apple/swift and apple/swift-corelibs-xctest before users encounter them on the latest Xcode beta. 😇

I've merged this on to master. I'll cut a release soon.

[jeffh]

Also, @briancroom. The changes looked compatible enough to just bump the major version and not have to warrant cutting a separate branch. That sounds ok?

[briancroom]

@jeffh yes, I do believe that I managed to achieve compatibility with those changes 👍

[Hout]

beta 3 has the same issue

Hi

I've merged this on to master. I'll cut a release soon.

any update on this? It would be nice to have a release or beta with Siwft 2.2 in CocoaPods

[briancroom]

@jeffh were there any outstanding items you were hoping to get in before a release? If it's just a time issue, I'd be more than happy to give it a go myself.

I had initially been thinking it would make sense to wait until #261 could be merged, but now it looks like the next snapshot is going to include breaking changes related to Swift 3, so I'd say let's go for it!

[jeffh]

Go for it! I usually just do some manual verification before cutting a
release. If you have some missing permission, let me know.

Hey @jeffh I got started writing up release notes but realized I don't have pod trunk access to Quick or Nimble. Could you add me as a maintainer there? Thanks!

[modocache]

@briancroom Done! I added you to Quick and Nimble.

[briancroom]

Sorry for the delay, but the release has been made now! Let me know if you have any issues: https://github.com/Quick/Nimble/releases/tag/v3.2.0

[briancroom]

I'm going to go ahead and close this now that the release is out. Thanks everyone!
