Hi Michael and Bob, Thanks very much, that's really cool.
Will a future version of Swift gain new annotations to control ownership directly within the Swift source? Oh and, is it possible (just to play around with) to enable the ownership verifier for more modules? Really excited about this :) Thanks, Johannes > On 10 Jul 2017, at 2:22 am, Michael Gottesman <mgottes...@apple.com> wrote: > > >> On Jul 8, 2017, at 10:36 AM, Johannes Weiß via swift-dev >> <swift-dev@swift.org> wrote: >> >> Hi swift-dev, >> >> I haven't heard anything about semantic ARC and couldn't really find much >> documentation besides >> https://gottesmm.github.io/proposals/high-level-arc-memory-operations.html . >> So I wanted to ask how much of it is implemented and what the plan for Swift >> 4/5 regarding Semantic ARC is. > > Many of Semantic ARC's changes were in Swift 4, but we did not turn on the > ownership verifier for Swift 4.
