It gives errors when using Swift Static library with Objective-C project

Question

I need to make swift static library for my requirement. I made swift static library which uses swift and Obj-c code. I have included Obj-c files via bridge file. I am able to compile swift static library without any error and get libMySwift.a file. I use Xcode9.3 with Swift4 to compile library.

I include libMySwift.a in obj-c project and also included obj-c compatible header to access my lib in the project. When I try to compile the project it give below warning and more than 200 errors.

Auto-Linking library not found for -lswiftSwiftOnoneSupport Auto-Linking library not found for -lswiftCore Auto-Linking library not found for -lswiftQuartzCore Auto-Linking library not found for -lswiftCoreImage Auto-Linking library not found for -lswiftCoreGraphics Auto-Linking library not found for -lswiftObjectiveC Auto-Linking library not found for -lswiftDispatch Auto-Linking library not found for -lswiftMetal Auto-Linking library not found for -lswiftFoundation Auto-Linking library not found for -lswiftUIKit Auto-Linking library not found for -lswiftDarwin Auto-Linking library not found for -lswiftCoreFoundation 

Please let me know if I am missing any steps or need to add anything.

I've got the same error on my demo project when added first Swift file in my pod compiled as static library. For me solution was simple - just added empty Swift file to my demo project which was previously in Objective-C only. This solved all linker errors.
