How to make libsqlite3.dylib work in Swift in xCode project?

I am trying to make the sqlite library work in my Swift project in xCode 6.3.

When I try to use it in code I get the following error:

I have added the library in my project like so:

And I have imported it in the bridging header like this:

The sqlite function calls do autocomplete so it seems like it is added properly, but it still gives me the error of undefined symbols...

Any idea what I am doing wrong?

Thank you

So I was able to use sqlite3.dylib in a Swift project by doing the following:

I created the bridging header. I created a wrapper objective-c class.

In the bridging header I then imported both and my custom wrapper header.

Because in my bridging header I imported my custom sqlite wrapper now my swift code can access the methods I exposed in its header.

So, the point is that my objective-c wrapper can access the sqlite3.dylib, and because I import the wrapper class in the bridging header my Swift code can then use it.

So, Swift cannot access the sqlite3.dylib c code directly, but my objective-c code can, which works as the "middle guy" between sqlite3.dylib and Swift code.
