Empty variables in xcode's variable view while debugging cocoapod pod

Question

I have a problem debugging swift pods in my project. We've created a swift pod and integrated that into one of our projects as a development pod. Everything runs great. However, when we try to debug the code in the pod, we don't see any values.

I've checked and we don't strip debug symbols in the Pods project nor in the main project. What else can be wrong. How do we fix this?

Here is some output from when i 'po' the variables:

Here are the buildsettings of my project (not of the Pods project)

Are you able to run po vc or po with any of the other variable names? — Keith Smiley

Is there an error when you attempt to po them? If so can you add that here? — Keith Smiley

I have a similar problem and the error I get is error: <EXPR>:1:1: error: use of unresolved identifier 'vc' — Nick Snyder

I had exact the same issue, few days ago. My solution was setting optimization flag in Build Settings to none:

SWIFT_OPTIMIZATION_LEVEL = "-Onone";

This is the key when you open it as Source Code.

Optimization Level is inside UI, under code generation. Keep fast for the release since you don't need variables for release :)

Thnx. But we already have that setting on -Onone (otherwise our builds take way too long to be productive)

Have you checked do you build just DWARF or DWARD with DSYM ? it's under Debug Information Format

We have DWARF with DSYM's on. I've added a screenshot of my buildsettings.
