Not able to open Xcode 8.3.2 on macOS 10.14 beta

Question

I recently upgraded to new beta version of macOS 10.14 but after installing it when I tried to open my older version of Xcode 8.3.2, every time it gets crashed. Below is its details.

Symbol not found: _OBJC_IVAR_$_NSTextViewIvars.sharedData

Did you try deleting all Xcode caches? It might help. See my answer at https://superuser.com/a/1147209/430478 for example. — Eric Aya, Jun 13 '18 at 16:26
This happened to me as well. I had to revert to High Sierra just for Xcode 8 to work on my end — jaytrixz, Oct 02 '18 at 07:17
So, if you want XCode 8, did you try to upgrade first to 8.3 ? — Ron Gahlot, Oct 26 '18 at 07:13
I also couldn't get Xcode 8.3.3 to run on Mojave. I'm trying to bootstrap a legacy application that requires Xcode >8 <8.3.3. RIP — Kyle Miller, Jan 31 '19 at 15:03

Xcode 8.X.X is doesn't support on macos 10.12 later version.

Cause of issue: "DYLD, [0x4] Symbol missing"

and also doesn't meet the swift version. so you need to upgrade your Xcode version or downgrade your os version below 10.12

As discussed in a few places like here and here, Xcode 8 does not run on Mojave. The best approach at this point is to either migrate your application to run with the latest Xcode, or run a VM with High Sierra or earlier that still supports your required version of Xcode.

Xcode 8's some versions is not compatible with macOS 10.14 just because of swift version. So, if you want XCode 8, did you try to upgrade first to 8.3 ?
