macos - Xcode 6 stuck at indexing in swift

Question

I seem to have hit a bug because everytime I open my project it tries to index the files but never gets done. When indexing I can see swift and SourceKitService high up in the Activity Monitor.

Answer 1

There is a bug in the Swift compiler / indexer. Some line or lines in your code is giving it difficulty. You will have to edit your code with some other text editor to comment out the offending line(s) before you will be able to open that project with Xcode. If you have no clue what the problem is, comment out all your code. Once you have the project open, you can start bringing back code little by little until the rise in CPU activity tells you that you've found the problem.
