Does Version 7.0.4 work with Xcode 6.3.1?

Mark,

Thanks for the help!

What I was saying is that I will need to use the next version of LC because
of the iOS hard crashes. This new release will be linked against Xcode 6.3.
This will require me to use Xcode 6.3.1. That will require me to upgrade to
OS X 10.10. Correct? If so I will start the upgrade today.

At some point Apple will no doubt stop accepting apps built against the 8.2
SDK which means that you will need, at that point, you will need 10.10
(Yosemite) so you can install Xcode 6.3 and build against the 8.3 (or
higher) iOS SDK.

6.7.5 and 7.0.5 will both still support Xcode 6.2 and building against the
iOS 8.2 SDK.
