Nimble linker issues with Objective-C++

[aboedo]

• [X] I have read CONTRIBUTING and have done my best to follow them.

What did you do?

Created a .mm file in which to add unit tests using nimble macros / functions.

What did you expect to happen?

No compiler issues.

What actually happened instead?

Compiler issues appear as soon as you add expect, to or any other nimble stuff. Note that quick functions like context, describe or it will work correctly.

Environment

List the software versions you're using:

• Quick: 1.1.0
• Nimble: 7.0.1
• Xcode Version: 8.3.3 (8E3004b)
• Swift Version: Xcode Default

Please also mention which package manager you used and its version. Delete the other package managers in this list:

• Carthage: 0.24.0 (Use carthage version in Terminal)

Project that demonstrates the issue

Just try modifying the extension of any Objective-C file that uses quick/nimble to .mm.

Hey @aboedo,

Thanks for filling an issue. Unfortunately, Nimble currently uses Swift's interop with Objective-C which currently doesn't support Objective-C++.

For now, I have a hacky proof-of-concept that simply carries the swift-bridged types over to ObjC on my branch. Let me know if that works.

Hey @aboedo! This issue is nearly 5 years old at this time! Thank you for your patience, but I'm going to close it.
