Re: [swift-evolution] [Pitch] Make the formal type of 'self' consistent in class methods

I'm not sure if this even requires a proposal. This just looks like an ordinary bug in the language implementation. But if this would become a formal proposal, I will support it. -Michael > Am 23.06.2016 um 21:53 schrieb Slava Pestov via swift-evolution > : > >

Quick (semi) related question: any particular reason for .Type to be a contextual kwd rather than defined on a protocol? (No concrete def for metatypes?) Regards LM (From mobile) > On Jun 23, 2016, at 11:02 PM, Andrew Trick via swift-evolution > wrote: > > >>> On

Re: [swift-evolution] [Pitch] Make the formal type of 'self' consistent in class methods

Great to hear some feedback so quickly, especially about something so mundane. I suspect the real reason it doesn’t work this way now is that ‘Self’ is not fully plumbed through. In particular, if a closure captures the ‘Self’ type, IRGen does not properly codegen it, causing compile-time or

Re: [swift-evolution] [Pitch] Make the formal type of 'self' consistent in class methods

+1. I have not encountered this issue myself but it looks like something that would cause a lot of head scratching if I had. It is also something that I am unlikely to remember immediately if I run into it in the future. The current behavior appears broken to me. It will be great to have it
