Older project stopped building with latest simulator updates

I have an older project that's using this method to create multiple environments.

It built fine 2 weeks ago. Today I opened up xcode, it asked to make changes (which were downloading the new simulators), and now the project wont build.

I'm getting this error: error: unable to read property list from file: /Users/{user}/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/{proj}-axqsdaitnghejddytagzzurgxvka/Build/Intermediates.noindex/{proj}.build/PROD-iphonesimulator/{proj}.build/Preprocessed-Info.plist: The operation couldn’t be completed. (XCBUtil.PropertyListConversionError error 0.)

Literally nothing has changed except the simulator update. I've checked my build script and everything else.

Any thoughts?

Thanks

Turns out -e is no longer a valid flag so it was printing -e in the preprocess.h file and then copying it over to the Preprocess-Info.plist. Because of this Xcode couldn't open the .plist file and the app wouldn't build.

So I just needed to remove the -e flags from all the echo statements in the build script.
