IBM-Swift-Sunset / Bridging

🚫 This project is no longer maintained. This package provides extensions to basic data types to add bridge() functions, in order to enable Swift Linux code with bridge() functions to compile on non-Linux platforms

Bridging

From https://github.com/apple/swift-corelibs-foundation/blob/e579dcd0b82dc40e9fe6596b4a5209ece2ba4166/Docs/Issues.md :

NSDictionary, NSArray, NSSet and NSString are not yet implicitly convertible to Dictionary, Array, Set, and String. In order to translate between these types, we have temporarily added a protocol to these types that allows them to be converted. There is one method called bridge().

let myArray: NSArray = ["foo", "bar", "baz"].bridge()

...
These limitations should hopefully be very short-term.

In order to compile code that calls bridge() functions both on Linux and on other platforms, we provide extensions to NSDictionary, NSArray, NSSet and NSString, to add bridge() functions on non-Linux platforms.
