Does Version 7.0.4 work with Xcode 6.3.1?

[Ralph DiMola]

Mark,

Thanks for the clarification. The messages I got from support indicated that
it was a Xcode 6.3 issue and LC 7.0.4 issues.

Thank You!

Hi Ralph,

I believe it is the two crashes which are holding up 6.7.5-rc-1 rather than
Xcode 6.3 integration (that was, as far as I can see, straightforward this
time as it was just a minor SDK update) - we identified an issue with the
fixes in the final build so had to rebuild again. Hopefully things should
all check out for public release early next week.

Mark.
