How to add Objective-C Bridging Header entry?

I have a Swift project and have add a cocoapod, which is written in Objective-C. It has header and implementation files. From what I understand, to use/import these files into my Swift files, I need to add a bridging file.

I found this site describing how to do this manually, since the Objective-C files are already part of my project (from the cocoapod).

http://www.learnswiftonline.com/getting-started/adding-swift-bridging-header/

1.) Navigate to your project build settings and find the “Swift Compiler – Code Generation” section. You may find it faster to type in “Swift Compiler” into the search box to narrow down the results.

2.) Next to “Objective-C Bridging Header” you will need to add the name/path of your header file. If your file resides in your project’s root folder simply put the name of the header file there.

I don't have a Objective-C Bridging Header in that section and it doesn't appear you can add new entries there.

I'm using Xcode 7.3.1. Anyone have some idea how this should be done?

Are you sure you looked at the correct Build Settings section, search with the keyword Swift compiler - General in the search field as describe below and then you can find it.

You need to create the header file first. It is a regular Objective-C header file and should be named <Your app or framework name>-Bridging-Header.h. For any Objective-C headers you want Swift to know about add an import statement to the newly created header file. Then follow your previous steps. There is also a hidden header that gets created for you called <Your app or framework name>-Swift.h. If you need to access any Swift classes from an Objective-C file import this header.
