IOS 13 Combine Framework - @Published not working ("Unknown attribute 'Published'")

Question

I watched the WWDC 2019 session "Combine in Practice" (https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2019/721/).

In the video they used the following syntax to create a publisher:

@Published var someName: String = ""

They did this so that someName becomes a publisher. However, Xcode doesn't like this syntax and gives me an error:

Unknown attribute 'Published

I have no idea why. I'm using the Xcode 11 beta on macOS Catalina.

Any ideas?

The following Foundation and Grand Central Dispatch integrations with Combine are unavailable: KeyValueObserving, NotificationCenter, RunLoop, OperationQueue, Timer, URLSession, DispatchQueue, JSONEncoder, JSONDecoder, PropertyListEncoder, PropertyListDecoder, and the @Published property wrapper.
