[swift-users] Swift4/iOS question

If I need to take this question elsewhere, please point me to the right list. I decided to take the dive this morning and give XCode9 beta and Swift 4 a try. I’m tired of not being able to refactor. There are two things that the importer is trying to commonly change that I’m curious about: 1)

[swift-users] Can I have my cake and share it too with extensions?

In my own project, I add some extensions to Data and other objects to make building/parsing Data objects easier. Amongst others, I have extensions like this: func += (data:inout Data, string:String) { data.append(string.data(using: .utf8)!) } func += (data:inout Data,

Re: [swift-users] [swift-evolution] Plan to move swift-evolution and swift-users mailing lists to Discourse

Not sure if I got the "reply all" right… I’ll throw my 2c in. I like mailing lists. I like them, because they let me choose the viewer that I want to participate with(separation of presentation and data). I lose that with a web forum. And there’s something valuable about actually forcing people

[swift-users] Confused/Surprised by IndexingIterator.forEach behavior

The behavior of the following playground snippet surprised me: var source = [10, 20, 30, 40] var stream = source.makeIterator() stream.next() // 10 stream.next() // 20 stream.forEach { (each) in print("\(each)") } // prints 30, 40 to the console stream.next() // 30 stream.next() //

[swift-users] Regression in Xcode8-beta6 Swift?

Upgrading to beta6 of Xcode8, I’ve read through various SE’s and made fixes as appropriate, but the following behavior I didn’t catch an explanation as to why its now an error where it was fine before. In a ViewController, I have something that looks like: var addButton = UIButton(type:

[swift-users] They had parens upon thars
